MONTRÉAL, June 18,
2024 /CNW/ - With passenger traffic at YUL
Montréal-Trudeau International Airport continuing to grow and many
summer destinations awaiting travellers, ADM Aéroports de Montréal
and its community partners are expecting a busy summer at YUL.
ADM would like to remind travellers of some important tips to
help them start their holiday on the right foot by preparing
properly for their journey through the airport.
Mitigation measures implemented by
ADM for the summer season
To help travellers avoid road congestion, ADM teams have
implemented several mitigation measures to provide them with new
options for easy access to YUL.
- The first level of the P4 multi-level parking lot has been
converted into an express drop-off zone. The West Express drop-off
zone offers an additional option to drop off a loved one in
preparation for their departure. It is served by a frequent shuttle
service, and access to the terminal takes less than 5 minutes.
- It is also possible to walk from the parking lot to the
terminal. The estimated walking time is less than 10 minutes.
- A second Express drop-off zone (East) has been established near
Highway 520 and Côté-de-Liesse. It offers a free shuttle service
every five minutes, with a five-minute journey time.
- Both express drop-off zones will be open between 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. during peak
periods.
- A 40-minute free parking period is also being offered for most
parking lots on the YUL site until the end of September 2024. This measure aims to limit
circular vehicle movements on the site.
Picking up passengers
- Make sure that the passenger you are meeting has arrived and
completed arrival procedures before heading to the arrivals level
pick-up area. If they haven't arrived yet, use the CellParc waiting
lots. You can stay there for up to 2 hours free of charge.
- To make it easier to locate passengers, the pick-up area is
divided into 5 loading areas: A, B, C, D and E. Pay attention and
arrange a precise meeting point.
Passenger tips before
leaving
Getting ready
- Check the status and schedule of your flight before you go to
the airport by visiting the ADM website or by contacting your
airline.
- Check the current occupancy of our available parking lots,
including our new P4 multi-level parking, and reserve your parking
space to ensure a spot during your trip and to take advantage of
various promotions.
- Plan your movements and take the time to check road conditions
and traffic by consulting Québec 511 before heading to the
airport.
- Find out about the various public transportation options
available in your area to get to the airport.
- Carefully pack your carry-on baggage to make it easier to pass
through security.
- Check with your airline to determine the allowable size of your
carry-on baggage and the maximum weight of your checked
baggage.
Arrive early
- Arrive at the airport 3 hours prior to departure, regardless of
your destination, to complete the airport pre-boarding
process.
- Once you have completed your check-in, immediately go through
security. You will then be able to explore and enjoy YUL's retail
offerings and family activities in the restricted area.
- To take advantage of expedited airport procedures, make use of
two complimentary services offered at YUL:
- Mobile Passport Control (flights to
the U.S.), an application that allows you to submit
your passport information and customs declaration in advance. This
saves you time and gives you access to a priority line at the
airport.
- YUL Express (international, domestic and U.S.
flights), an online booking platform that provides a
schedule for security checkpoints.
Passenger tips for returning
home
- Simplify your arrival in Canada by completing your Canada Border
Services Agency (CBSA) Customs' Advance Declaration, up to 72 hours
prior to your arrival in Canada
using ArriveCAN. The use of this application reduces the processing
time for travellers in the border control area.
- To avoid waiting, you can pay for your parking online on your
mobile device, 15 minutes before you leave the airport. Simply scan
the QR code on your parking ticket and follow the
instructions.
If you have any further questions about your trip, please visit
the "Questions and Answers" section of the ADM website. When
you arrive at the airport, don't hesitate to ask one of the
red-jacketed ambassadors to help you find your way around the
terminal. Finally, a member of the YULsatisfaction team will be
able to assist you in real time online via our YULchat service.
