Productivity on board

Business travel


VIA Rail makes business travel a real pleasure

Comfort, freedom, service and convenience: the keys to having the productive trip you deserve.

Comfort: Comfortable seats and spacious surroundings

Comfy seats with lots of room to settle back into and get some work done, or simply relax. Your legs will thank you. And when you feel like getting up, make yourself at home.

Freedom: Time for you

Time aboard a train means free time that you can use as you please. Make phone calls. Gear up for a meeting. Draft a memo or report. You can securely plug in your laptop and use your cell phone. Or if you feel like taking a nap...

Service: Friendly, courteous staff

If you need anything, you can count on our friendly, courteous staff. They're always ready to deliver attentive and personalized service with a smile, all the while respecting your need not to be disturbed. Enjoy even more service privileges in VIA 1 class.

Convenience: Downtown to downtown

On a tight schedule? Have your tickets delivered directly to the office and leave at the very last minute. Travel with total peace of mind and arrive in the heart of the city, while avoiding long cab rides and traffic jams.

Enjoy courtesy newspapers, soft drinks, coffee and more. Above all, you won't need to keep checking your watch: your priority boarding will be announced.

Delicious meals. No more travelling on an empty stomach! Aboard the train, depending on the time of day, you can enjoy a hearty breakfast, a three-course meal for lunch or dinner, as well as cocktails, wine and famous VIA 1 chocolates.

Quad seating. Kill two birds with one stone: change venues while working with a client or partner, or even brainstorm as a team in a four-seat section. Move group dynamics into high gear with a meeting on the go!
