Transportation to Montreal City Center from Airport

Montreal Mirabel Intl. - Montreal Intl. Airport

Montréal is the second biggest city of Canada and the biggest city of the province Québec. Just like a classic European city, Montréal was founded in an area where two rivers combine, and it is also an island city. Therefore, it is an important port city. The city located on the Island of Montréal connects to the main land through bridges.

Because French is spoken in Montréal differently from many cities of Canada and it has a population of close to four million today, Montréal is also known as small Paris. The city hosts many cultural and art festivals and shows which are famous worldwide.

Architectural examples from past and today are together in the city and there are a lot of art galleries. You can go to almost any corner of the city with its quite developed and modern metro network. Metros are available with approximately 70 stations on 4 lines in total consisting of green, yellow, orange and blue lines. There are very clear information signs in all the stations regarding lines, stops and transfer points.

Because the city is covered in snow for a long time in winter, the metro network isn’t only used as a mean of transportation, but it also looks like an underground city. You can find shopping centers, restaurants, cafes, cinemas, banks and more under the ground. Some hotels have even doors opening to this underground city. There is also a bus system in connection with metros in the city.

You can switch from one mean of transportation to another easily according to where you will go. “Maximum 10 minutes” system is applied for buses between 06:00 and 21:00; this means you won’t wait for a bus for more than 10 minutes.

There is also a train network in the city and you can travel both inside the city or outside the island by these trains. One type of ticket is used in all the vehicles of public transportation. You can buy your ticket from the machines at the metro stations, main bus-stops, the airport and the Hilton Hotel in the city center.  You can buy one-way ticket, but there are also 1-day, 3-day, weekly and monthly tickets. Daily ticket costs 10 dollars. Although winter months are very cold and snowy, there is a cycling path in Montréal which is about 400 km long and people cycle at every chance. If weather conditions are convenient during your stay, you can rent a bicycle and see the whole city without the fear of safety.

You can consider renting a car according to the season in the city. Generally, you don’t need to do it due to the successful metro system. On the other hand, driving a car can be problematic in winter and roads are often ruined because of the weather conditions. The biggest ease in renting a car is the absence of the parking problem and opportunity of parking your car for free around the city.

There are two separate airports in Montréal. The first one is Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport where international flights are executed. This airport is approximately 22 km far from the city center and extremely modern. Montréal Saint-Hubert Longueuil Airport is the second airport, which is closer to the city center. This airport, where international flights aren’t executed, is mostly used for domestic flights and charter flights. The airport also operates as an airplane parking area. The flying school is also in this airport. Some plane companies execute their test flights here. There are eating and drinking areas and means of transportation to the center at the airport, which has 3 runways in total. The airport is only 15 minutes far from the city center.

It cannot be said that Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport is close to the city center because it is located 22 km away from it. However, you can reach both the city center, neighboring cities and distant towns easily from the airport. There are many alternatives from municipality buses to limousines. Shuttles or hotel buses are among the other means of transportation you can benefit from.

Express Bus

You can go the city center from the airport by the express bus route 747 in 45-60 minutes. Last stop of the bus is the central bus-stop in the city center and Berri-UQAM metro station is right next to it. These buses are in service for 24/7. The ticket costs 10 dollars. You can use all the metro and bus routes with this ticket for 24 hours. You can buy your ticket in cash or with credit card from the machines in the international arrival terminal of the airport. The ticket can also be bought inside the bus, but you can only pay in cash in this case.

Bus

You can go to Dorval Train Station in the city center by the public bus route 204 and Roxboro-Pierrefonds Train Station by the bus numbered 209, which leave from the exit of the airport. The ticket costs 3,25 dollars. You can buy your ticket in cash or with credit card from the machines in the international arrival terminal. If you wish, you can buy a daily, 3-day or weekly card and use any kind of public transportation easily during your whole stay. Daily card costs 10 dollars.

Aerobus

You can reach the city center for 15-25 dollars by Aerobuses which drop the passengers at several different stops in the city center. You can find the Aerobuses at the exit of the arrival terminal. Train / Minibus If you will go to another city and need to switch to a train, you can reach Dorval Train Station by free-of-charge minibuses that leave from the airport.

Car Rental

Due to long and extremely cold winters, renting a car is not a much-preferred transportation alternative in the city. Because the public transportation system in the city is well-working and comfortable, renting a car seems unnecessary if you aren’t thinking about going to different places outside the city or don’t have a specific condition such as traveling with your small child. Still, there are a sufficient number of car rental firms at the airport and you can rent a car according to your budget at different levels.
