Please do better.  If I want to take the 401 to Pearson, I will drive or take a limo service..

The bus is likely significantly less expensive than either limo or parking at the airport. And Airways Transit has transmogrified themselves into a limo service, too.

That said, while the bus could be used to connect between the two airports, I don't know what the real use case is for that. What kind of flight combinations would merit that?

The Air France/KLM bus from Ottawa to Montreal Trudeau has long existed, so that's nothing new. I don't think this is usable as a connection: YKF and YHM would be origin/destination, since there are no meaningful flights by AC out of there. 

YKF is not exactly easily reachable from many places in KW, including by bicycle, but it's sort of easier than YYZ. Trains are more reliable but it's hard for AC to do that.

Aside from the novelty factor, I guess the question is: how often is the AC bus going to save me time or money? We'll see what the bookings look like.
