Travel to and from the airport

Starting last spring, Montreal public transit (http://www.stm.info) began to offer a local bus from the airport (international arrivals level) to downtown. It is called 747 Express.

Take the bus from airport to the first Metro stop (Lionel Groulx, approx 20 minutes on the freeway)
Switch to the Metro (subway) and travel to the Atwater station.

See the following info: http://www.stm.info/English/info/a-747.htm and http://www.stm.info/English/bus/planibus/747.pdf.

The basic fare for this service is $7 each way exact change only, however, it is also possible to buy a 3-day Metro pass at the airport (international arrivals level, at the currency exchange booth) for only $14. This will allow full use of the Metro between the hotel and the conference location as well as any other travel in the city, and the trips from airport to hotel and back.

Weather permitting, some people might want to get around Montreal using the BIXI bicycle rental service. There are stations near the hotel as well as near the Canadian Centre for Ecumenism. Many streets now have reserved bicycle lanes (with barriers to protect the cyclists from traffic). The bikes can be rented for short commutes and dropped anywhere. See http://www.bixi.com/.

Additional travel information to and from the airport:

Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport to The Residence Inn by Marriott.

1- Taxi at a flat rate of $38.00 (each direction). This flat rate applies to trips to and from Montreal downtown area. The ride is approximately 25 minutes with reasonable traffic; if you are traveling during rush hour, please expect 45-60 minutes.

2- The L’Aerobus Shuttle bus runs between the Trudeau Airport and downtown Montreal. The bus stops downtown at the Central Bus Station (505 de Maisonneuve Blvd. E at the Berri-UQAM metro station). From here, you may take a taxi to the hotel (10 minutes) or use the metro (subway) using the green line and getting off at Atwater metro station. L’Aerobus Shuttle bus tickets are available at the arrivals level at the airport or at the Central Bus Station for approximately $15.00 one way or $25.00 return for the 45-minute trip (adult fares). Please call 514.842.2281 for more info.
