People often ask
Travel time from Mont Tremblant to Montréal–Trudeau International Airport (YUL) is typically 1 and a half to 2 hours in normal driving conditions. The route follows Route 117 and Autoroute 15 south toward Montreal.
During winter storms, heavy snowfall, or peak weekend traffic, the journey can take longer, so it’s wise to allow extra time, especially if you’re travelling during ski season.
A safe rule is to leave at least 3.5 to 4 hours before your flight departure. This allows for winter road conditions, traffic near Montreal, and airport check-in time.
For early-morning or international flights, giving yourself extra buffer is smart, as weather delays and limited transport options are more common outside peak daytime hours.
Shared shuttle services between Mont Tremblant and YUL are limited and not always reliable, particularly for early-morning or late-night departures. Schedules can vary by season and may sell out quickly during peak ski periods.
Many travellers choose private transfers instead, as they provide direct, door-to-door service with flexible departure times and no reliance on fixed shuttle schedules.
Early-morning shared shuttle options are very limited and may not align with flight departure times, especially outside peak season. Availability can change with little notice.
Private transfers are the most dependable option for early flights, as they operate 24/7 and depart according to your flight schedule.
The most convenient and reliable option is a pre-booked private transfer, particularly in winter. It removes the stress of driving, navigating weather conditions, and parking at the airport.
Driving yourself is also an option if you’re comfortable with winter roads, but many visitors prefer professional transportation for peace of mind.
Uber availability in Mont Tremblant is limited, and finding a driver willing to make the long trip to YUL is not guaranteed. Pricing can also be unpredictable, especially during peak demand or bad weather.
Lyft has little to no presence in the region, making rideshare services an unreliable choice for airport transfers from Mont Tremblant.
Yes. Booking in advance is strongly recommended, especially during ski season, holidays, and weekends. Transportation options can fill up quickly, and last-minute availability is not guaranteed.
Pre-booking also locks in pricing and ensures your transfer aligns with your flight time, even for early departures or winter travel.
About travelling from Mont Tremblant, QC to Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL)
Mont-Tremblant is one of Québec’s signature four-season mountain resorts, well-loved for its colourful pedestrian village and energetic après atmosphere. The ski area is among the biggest in Eastern Canada, with more than 100 runs stretched over four faces, offering sweeping views of Lac Tremblant and the surrounding Laurentians. Thanks to extensive snowmaking, the mountain typically delivers reliable skiing even when conditions vary elsewhere in the East.
The village is a major draw. It’s compact, slopeside, and has a distinctly European vibe. Cafés, bars, restaurants, and boutiques line the cobbled streets. Microbrasserie La Diable pours local brews and hearty meals, P’tit Caribou keeps the après scene buzzing, and La Savoie is the go-to for classic fondue. For morning coffee or a quick breakfast, Au Grain de Café and La Sandwicherie are long-time favourites. Shops range from outdoor gear and winter clothing to Québec-made treats and artisan goods.
While winter puts Tremblant on the map, the warmer months bring hiking, cycling, lake activities, golf, and some of Canada’s best fall colours. Routes like the Summit Trail and La Corniche offer memorable lookouts, and Lac Tremblant turns into a playground for paddleboarding, swimming, and kayaking. Add in the resort’s busy events calendar, and you’ve got a destination that stays lively year-round.
