Baggage, seats and classes on the Ottawa to Montreal flight

Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Ottawa to Montreal. Full-service fares typically 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.

• 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
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy

Flying with children, families and groups from Ottawa to Montreal

Families fly the Ottawa to Montreal route with us all year round. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the carrier offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Montreal when you land

Montreal is Canada's French-speaking city, with Old Montreal, Mount Royal and a famous food and festival scene. Start with Olympic Park and Biodôme, Montreal Botanical Garden and Underground City, then Saint Joseph's Oratory and Parc La Fontaine. A tip from our desk: 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.

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

Best time to fly from Ottawa to Montreal

Summer brings long festival evenings and busy terraces; autumn colours peak in late September and October; winter is snowy and cold, with winter tyres compulsory from December to mid-March, and road works can slow the highways in summer. For the fare itself, the cheapest flights from Ottawa to Montreal 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 Montreal to Ottawa

How much is a flight from Ottawa to Montreal?

The cost of a flight from Ottawa to Montreal 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 on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the electronic ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Ottawa to Montreal: how to pay less

A cheap Ottawa to Montreal flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we verify for you:

• 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 look up
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are usually cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
