Airlines flying from Montreal to New York

Departure: Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL)

Flights from Montreal to New York leave from Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL), serving Montreal - montreal is Canada's French-speaking city, with Old Montreal, Mount Royal and a famous food and festival scene. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: Public buses, including an express line, and shared shuttles link the airport with downtown in roughly 45 to 60 minutes, which suits a light traveller staying near a metro station; a private car is simpler with luggage, children, a late arrival or a stay in the Plateau, Laval or the Laurentians.

• Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
• Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your accommodation in Montreal to Montréal-Trudeau International Airport

Arrival: New York Newark or LaGuardia (EWR / LGA) and getting into New York

The flight lands at New York Newark or LaGuardia (EWR / LGA). New York City is served by three airports: John F. Kennedy (JFK) in Queens about 25 km from Midtown Manhattan, LaGuardia (LGA) about 15 km away, and Newark (EWR) across the Hudson in New Jersey about 25 km from Midtown, with the bridges, tunnels and expressways between them among the busiest roads in America. From arrivals you have taxis, local transport and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Montreal to New York journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Onward flights or trains from New York the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Montreal to New York departure that leaves a safe connection.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Montreal to New York flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Montreal to New York. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare

Flying with children, families and groups from Montreal to New York

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Things to do in New York when you land

New York City is served by three airports: John F. Kennedy (JFK) in Queens about 25 km from Midtown Manhattan, LaGuardia (LGA) about 15 km away, and Newark (EWR) across the Hudson in New Jersey about 25 km from Midtown, with the bridges, tunnels and expressways between them among the busiest roads in America. The reasons travellers fly from Montreal to New York include Central Park, the Empire State Building and Top of the Rock, Times Square, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Brooklyn Bridge. For the first meal, try a bagel with lox for breakfast, a New York slice of pizza and pastrami on rye at a deli.

We offer tours and transfers in New York as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.

Best time to fly from Montreal to New York

Spring and autumn are the pleasant seasons, summer is hot and humid, and winter cold with occasional snow; the Van Wyck Expressway from JFK and the tunnels into Manhattan are slowest on weekday evenings. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Montreal to New York are found outside school holidays and major events, on mid-week days, booked early. Peak weeks sell out first and cost most; shoulder months give the best mix of weather, availability and price.

Return flight from New York to Montreal

We book the return leg from New York to Montreal just as easily, typically on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Montreal to New York?

The cost of a flight from Montreal to New York depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we look up the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost by WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

Ask us for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.

Cheapest flight from Montreal to New York: how to pay less

Finding cheap flights from Montreal to New York is timing plus flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds the lowest fare on the route:

• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are usually cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
• Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we check

We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Montreal to New York?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back through WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.
