Montréal-pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport

Upon YUL, fair Montreal's airport grand, a tale of travel unfolds with gentle hand. Terminals rise like turrets in the light, welcoming pilgrims in joyous flight. Staff, noble hosts, with grace they guide, ensuring each sojourner finds no stride denied. Eateries abound, a feast for the soul, where global flavors harmoniously stroll. Security stands, a vigilant shield, ensuring safe passage for each soul revealed. In YUL's embrace, a seamless dance, where journey and joy serenely enhance. Thus, in Montreal's haven, a sonnet of travel sung, where YUL's airport plays the gracious tongue.

The immigration check point for travelling to the US was efficient. The self-check out custom on arrival in Montreal was also efficient.

Redoing this post as when we returned from our trip had the most dangerous and rudest parking lot driver. We were picked up around 12:20 am November 19. The driver wouldn't answer our questions about parking lots but even worse was flying through the lots. There was even a child on board and we were all holding on for dear life as we were bounced around. This person should not be allowed to drive. I've attached the QR code for his shuttle. Please retrain this guy if you can't get rid of him, he will kill someone one day.Typical of Montreal it was a bit of a trek finding our way to this airport but once inside it was very clean and well mapped. Parking for our holiday requires taking a shuttle and the parking cost is $30/day or $160/7days. Plan for lots of time to get through security and US Customs if travelling to USA.

Chaotic Airport (but otherwise pleasant experience).My family and I have used this airport as a layover between flights from Ottawa (1st time in Apr 2018 to Las Vegas, 2nd time in Jan 2023 to Punta Cana). First time we had a much better experience despite being in a rush to make a connection with ONLY 45 min. Staff were super friendly and gave us a lift to our Gate destination. On our 2nd visit during our return back to Ottawa it was extremely stressful, chaotic, and unpleasant staff. They almost misplaced our luggage and found them eventually after an hour of searching. Luckily we had a 3-hour layover. I guess depend on luck. On the positive note, we loved the actual walk on the runway (outside).

Customer Service: 5 Mobility Accessibility: 3.5 Bilingual Support System: 4 Hygiene: 5 The airport is located in the south corner of Montreal city. The staff members of the airport authority are kind and supportive to non-french speaking travellers.The airport washroom set up caught my special attention. They are advanced to keep up the hygiene level throughout the airport premise. A step up table was installed in front of the sink area so the kids and elderly people could make it to the height of the sink.The staff members were guiding in both French and English to passengers at the arrival gate to get their tickets.The shuttle ride from airport to city center through 747 was smooth except that the stations were pronounced in the bus were in French only. So one has to keep the Google map on and track the next station.Tips: 24 hrs pass cost 11. Regular one way zone wise ticket cost 2.75. Subway network and service was good within the city area.
