Some useful tips when flying to Montreal
Montreal is one of the oldest cities in North America, and one of the most exotic too. It is located in the province of Quebec and is the second largest city in Canada. It is multi-cultural since it is a vibrant mix of French, English, and immigrant cultures. Considered as the second largest French-speaking city after Paris, about 70% speak French but most can speak English.
There should be a budget travel package to Montreal that you can book through the Internet. Montreal is an attractive destination for the avid shopper since the city is home to the most fashion-advanced citizens. There are thousands of shops and services available whether above ground or under. The Underground City makes it possible for Montreal to attract visitors even during its arctic winter season.
Peak tourist time is late May to early September because of the festival like the Jazz Festival and the Grand Prix. During these times, plane fares would be costly, as well as the accommodations.

- Montreal-Pierre Elliot Trudeau International Airport or Dorval Airport serves all commercial passenger traffic
