YUL
Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) Transfers
Private chauffeur transfers at Montréal-Trudeau, Montréal.
Montréal-Trudeau is the passenger airport for the city, operated by Aéroports de Montréal. The same organisation runs Mirabel, which since the split has been the cargo and industrial side of the operation, and that division is the clearest way to understand the pair: if you are meeting a person, you are meeting them here.
Arrivals divide into domestic, transborder and international, and the sector you land in decides how long you take to appear. International arrivals collect luggage from the carousel and follow the international arrivals route; a connecting passenger may be handled differently again depending on whether the airline transfers bags automatically. None of that changes the pickup, but it changes the timing, which is why the flight number is worth giving us.

How pickup works at Montréal-Trudeau
Pickups at Montréal-Trudeau are meet and greet. Your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals curb with a name sign and takes the luggage. Meeting inside the terminal is available on request, at an extra charge.
Put your flight number on the booking and our dispatch team checks your flight's arrival time and adjusts your pickup. Sixty minutes of complimentary waiting are included, counted from the moment the aircraft lands rather than from your booked time, which is the allowance that covers customs and baggage.
There is one thing to settle before you book, and it is not about the airport. Online booking needs one end of the trip to be in Ontario. A car from Montréal-Trudeau to Ottawa or anywhere else in Ontario books online in the normal way. A car from here to somewhere else in Québec - into the city, or out to Québec City - is arranged by quote instead: the booking form offers Request a quote rather than a payment page it cannot honour, or you can call +1 (888) 627-5313, and the fare is fixed in Canadian dollars before you travel.
The included waiting period and the per-minute rate after it are set out in clause 4 of our Terms.

Questions about Montréal-Trudeau
Can I book a Montréal-Trudeau pickup online?
If the other end of the trip is in Ontario, yes - the run to Ottawa is the common one. If both ends are in Québec, it is arranged by quote - call us or send the quote request for a fixed fare in Canadian dollars - and the booking form will tell you before you reach payment rather than after.
Where does my chauffeur wait?
At the arrivals curb with a name sign. Inside the terminal on request, at an extra charge. You do not need to find a numbered bay or call anyone; the chauffeur takes the luggage from there.
How much waiting time is included?
Sixty minutes on every airport pickup, measured from when the aircraft lands. Given that international arrivals here collect bags and clear the international route, that hour is the part of the service that matters most.
Should I be flying into Mirabel instead?
Only if you are freight. Mirabel is the cargo and industrial side of Aéroports de Montréal's operation and does not carry scheduled passengers, so a passenger arriving in Montréal arrives here.
