Overview

Flying private from YUL.

Montréal-Trudeau (CYUL) is one of the main private aviation airports serving Montreal.

Montréal-Trudeau has several private terminals with customs on site, and Signature's terminal is open 24 hours, so private passengers do not pass through the airline terminal.

Most business jets weigh less than 45,000 kg and are not caught by the night rules, but the heaviest long-range types cannot take off between midnight and 07:00.

Flights are operated by CTA-licensed air carriers.
