Baggage, seats and classes on the Vancouver to Montreal flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Vancouver to Montreal. Full-service fares normally 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.

• 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
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request

Flying with children, families and groups from Vancouver to Montreal

Families fly the Vancouver to Montreal route with us every week. 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

Mount Royal lookout, Jean-Talon Market, Olympic Park and Biodôme, Montreal Botanical Garden and Underground City are what most travellers come to Montreal for. Montreal is Canada's French-speaking city, with Old Montreal, Mount Royal and a famous food and festival scene. Eat smoked meat sandwiches, poutine and tourtière meat pie while you are there.

If you want the days in Montreal organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it through WhatsApp.

Best time to fly from Vancouver to Montreal

Flights from Vancouver to Montreal run all year, several a day. 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. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.

Return flight from Montreal to Vancouver

We book the return leg from Montreal to Vancouver just as easily, generally 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 Vancouver to Montreal?

The cost of a flight from Vancouver 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 verify the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost in the WhatsApp chat, with the options side by side.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Vancouver to Montreal flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Vancouver to Montreal: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Vancouver to Montreal is typically booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our team applies on every booking:

• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we verify
• 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
• 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

When you send the form, mention if you can move your dates. We scan the fares around them and send the cheapest Vancouver to Montreal flight first, then the alternatives.

How to book flights from Vancouver to Montreal with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Vancouver to Montreal is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you tell us on WhatsApp when we message you to confirm. We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.

• Step 1 - fill out the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
• Step 2 - we message you by WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
• Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat

Haqqi Tours also provides what happens around the flight: a private transfer to the airport in Vancouver, a driver at Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) with your name, and tours in Montreal. Mention it through WhatsApp and it goes on the same confirmation.

Airlines flying from Vancouver to Montreal

Air Canada, Porter Airlines and Flair Airlines fly the Vancouver to Montreal route, non-stop. They differ in baggage rules, seat pitch, meals and the airports they use as much as in price, so the cheapest fare is not always the best value. Haqqi Tours lays the options out plainly: which fare includes a checked bag, which airline flies at the time you want, and which is the better choice for a family or a business trip.

• Air Canada - Vancouver to Montreal
• Porter Airlines - Vancouver to Montreal
• Flair Airlines - Vancouver to Montreal

Departure: Vancouver International Airport (YVR)

Your journey starts at Vancouver International Airport (YVR). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. The Canada Line SkyTrain runs from the airport to downtown in about 25 minutes and is the best option with a cabin bag and a hotel near a station; a private car is simpler with luggage, a cruise departure from Canada Place, the ferry terminals, Whistler or the North Shore.

• 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 provides a private transfer from your hotel in Vancouver to Vancouver International Airport
• Just ask about the terminal and fast-track options at Vancouver International Airport

Arrival: Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) and getting into Montreal

Arrival is at Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Montreal is Canada's French-speaking city, with Old Montreal, Mount Royal and a famous food and festival scene. We provide airport transfers in Montreal with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.

Many passengers continue from Montreal to somewhere else. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.
