Comments on VIA Rail Canada for Android

★★★★★ Tracy · Apr 16, 2026

I love travelling by VIA. My first trip was across Canada to Vancouver and back, and it was a trip I will never forget. The meals were fantastic. Booking my trips has always been easy and the staff on the trains are always friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend VIA.

★★★★★ Jim Wilson · Jul 20, 2026

I have become a fan of VIA and highly recommend parking the car and taking the train!

★★★★★ Uwezo International · Jan 1, 2026

Always a pleasure and convenient to travel on VIA Rail!

★☆☆☆☆ Sean · Dec 23, 2025

Normally really good. Since new update (Dec 11) cannot see current trip details or produce QR code, showing error code 400. I've cleared all history, caches and deleted the app, no luck so far.

★☆☆☆☆ Tom Bertin · May 14, 2026

5/14/26 travel... ticket says 12:13, VIA 73, ALDR to Windsor... in station board says 12:36 (roughly)... app real-time tracker says 12:25 (roughly)... I m at track level at 12:13 as a friend has missed a train because of sync problems b4...no train as train to Toronto pulls in... ask helpful lady for train info... what happened to this train? She checks app... "app was in error" = me; nice young lady = "we have no reports of app/website real-train tracker sync problems"... you do now...

CAN SOMEBODY EXPLAIN FROM YOUR DEPARTMENT WHAT WILL BE DONE TO FIX AN ISSUE, IF YOUR CUSTOMER SELECT THE LOWER BERTH, FROM THE UPPER BERTH FOR THE SLEEPER CLASS, FOR FUTURE RESERVATIONS? ONCE YOU TAP 'LOWER BERTH' THE DAMN SELECTION WON'T GO THROUGH!

★☆☆☆☆ Chris Mercer · Jul 25, 2026

Via rail has no idea what they are doing. They advertise internet, didn't work jad to use my phones' data, the employees had everyone shift out of 2 cars just to have everyone shift back, I had my ticket check by 5 different people and was threatened to be kicked off each time, not only will I be never using via rail again, but I will be spending the next while badmouthing them to everyone I can and publicly posting about the horrible experience I had.
