Montreal Airport to Laval transfer: the easiest way to get there

The best way to get from Montreal Airport to Laval depends on what you are carrying and who you are travelling with, but for almost everyone arriving with luggage, family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the answer. Haqqi Tours' Montreal Airport to Laval airport transfer is met at arrivals, priced in advance and driven by someone who does this route every week.

This page covers everything travellers ask about the Montreal Airport to Laval route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Laval in Montreal is like, where to stay and eat, when to travel, where you meet your driver at Montreal Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.

Arriving at Montreal Airport (YUL)

Montréal–Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) is in Dorval on the island of Montreal, about 20 km west of downtown and 22 km from Old Montreal.

Airports feel bigger after a long flight, and Montreal Airport is no exception. That is why your confirmation carries the exact meeting point for this airport, the driver's name and a phone number: when you walk out of arrivals you know where to look. The driver has been following your flight, so a late landing or a slow bag belt changes nothing about your Montreal Airport to Laval transfer.

Searches for "YUL to Laval" or "YUL airport transfer" land here for a reason: YUL is the airport code for Montreal Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Laval.

Taxi or private transfer from Montreal Airport to Laval?

Travellers searching for "Montreal Airport to Laval taxi cost" usually find a range rather than a number, because taxi fares depend on the meter, the hour and the route. Our private transfer gives you a single fixed price for the whole vehicle, agreed on WhatsApp in advance, so the cost of getting from Montreal Airport to Laval is known before you land.

For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Montreal Airport to Laval per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Laval involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.

There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Laval, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.

Public transport from Montreal Airport to Laval: is there a bus, train or metro?

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.

So the honest comparison for Laval is this: public transport is the cheapest option for one person with a cabin bag and time to spare, and a private Montreal Airport to Laval transfer is the better one for everybody else - two or more travellers, families, older relatives, anyone landing late, anyone with proper luggage. The price is per vehicle, not per person, which is why a family of four often pays less than it would on four bus or train tickets plus the taxi at the end.

About Laval

Laval, the city on Île Jésus just north of the island of Montreal, lies about 25 km north-east of Montreal Airport.

It is a residential and business suburb of Montreal with large shopping centres, the Centropolis district of hotels and offices, and a metro terminus at Montmorency. Laval offers quieter and often more affordable stays than downtown, with fast road access north to the Laurentians, and the Cosmodôme space-science centre and river parks are popular family visits. Many business travellers and families with relatives in the area choose Laval.

Waiting time after landing is included, and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps everyone informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Montreal Airport.

Who books the Laval transfer

Because the price is per vehicle, the more of you there are the better it compares with taxis and tickets.

The transfer is the first thing most guests book with us and rarely the last; day trips from Laval and the ride back to Montreal Airport are arranged in the same conversation.

How to book your Laval transfer

Booking is simple: fill in the form on this page or message us on WhatsApp with your flight number, the date, the number of passengers and your hotel in Laval. A member of our team replies within minutes to confirm the price and the meeting point. Payment is arranged on WhatsApp as well, in whichever way suits you, and your confirmation is written down so nothing is left to memory.

Changes and cancellations are handled through the same WhatsApp conversation. Because the terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the request is made, our team will explain exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment, never as a surprise afterwards.

Good to know before you land at Montreal Airport

French and English are both used at the airport, and the arrival drive follows Autoroute 20 and 720; share your flight number and the exact hotel address, and for Old Montreal expect narrow one-way streets close to the door.

Note the terminal or hall your flight uses at Montreal Airport, and if you change flights before travel tell the desk - the pickup is tracked against the flight number we hold.

If you are two households or a group, say how many bags as well as how many people; luggage decides the vehicle more often than passengers do.

Many guests book both directions together for a single confirmation with two times on it; if the return flight changes during the stay, one message moves the pickup to the new time.
