Montréal-Mirabel International Airport (YMX) Transfers
Private chauffeur transfers at Mirabel, Montréal.
Mirabel is not a passenger airport, and the most useful thing this page can do is say so plainly before you book a car to meet somebody off a flight. Aéroports de Montréal runs it as the YMX International Aerocity of Mirabel: a cargo and industrial site able to handle all types of cargo on all types of aircraft, 24 hours a day, with 4.5 million square metres of land given over to industrial, logistics and aeronautical use.
The scheduled traffic here is freight. FedEx, Cargojet, UPS, DHL, Purolator, Postes Canada and Amazon all operate all-cargo or courier services into it. Alongside that, the site supports the aeronautics, aerospace and transport electrification industries, which is what a visitor to Mirabel is usually there for.
Meet & Greet
Your chauffeur meets you inside the FBO or private terminal lounge your aircraft is handled at.
60 minutes of waiting
Complimentary on every airport pickup, measured from when your aircraft lands.
Timed to the aircraft
Booked against your operator and tail number rather than a published schedule.
Door-to-door
Direct to your destination, with no stops you did not ask for.
How pickup works at Mirabel
A car at Mirabel is usually wanted for crew transport, a business aviation arrival, or a trip to one of the aerospace employers on the site. All three are arranged by quote; none of them look like a terminal pickup.
Tell us the building, operator or company you are going to, and for an aircraft arrival give us the operator, tail number and expected time. Dispatch confirms the meeting point. Because the site runs around the clock, a night arrival here is nothing unusual.
Sixty minutes of complimentary waiting from the aircraft's arrival apply to an aircraft pickup. Meet and greet applies too, in the form Mirabel supports: the chauffeur meets you inside the FBO or private terminal lounge handling your aircraft, because no scheduled arrivals hall is in use here for it to happen in. AFS Executive runs an FBO on the field, and a pickup is arranged against whoever is handling you.
Mirabel is in Québec, so online booking applies only when the other end of the trip is in Ontario. Everything else is arranged by quote: call or request a quote, and the fare is fixed in Canadian dollars before travel.
The included waiting period and the per-minute rate after it are set out in clause 4 of our Terms.

Questions about Mirabel
Can I meet an arriving passenger at Mirabel?
Not off a scheduled flight, because there are none. Mirabel carries cargo and courier operations and supports the aerospace industry on the site. If someone is flying into Montréal to be met, they are landing at Trudeau or at MET.
Do you do crew transport here?
Yes, by quote. Give us the operator and the building or gate you need, and the fare is fixed in Canadian dollars before the day. The site operates 24 hours a day, so night movements are normal.
How far is Mirabel from the city?
About 40 km from downtown Montréal, straight-line from the airport's official coordinates. That distance is a large part of why passenger service moved away from it.
Is a Mirabel trip bookable online?
Only if the other end is in Ontario, under the current rule. A Mirabel to Montréal or Mirabel to Québec City trip is arranged by quote, and the form will say so and offer the quote request.
