Arrival procedures

If you have booked accommodation with EC, you must arrive at the airport between 08:00 and 20:00. Late/early arrivals may be asked to book alternative accommodation.

You will meet an EC transportation representative holding an EC Montreal welcome sign after you exit through the glass doors after customs/ immigration. If after 10 minutes you cannot see the EC representative, just call +1 514 947 1030 (from the information desk or a mobile phone). If your flight is missed, delayed, or cancelled, or if there is any other problem, you should notify EC by calling +1 514 947 1030 (from the information desk or a mobile phone) to rearrange your transfer time and avoid additional cost.

Other ways to get to your residence

You can take a taxi or an Uber to the residence. There is also a regular bus (number 747) that stops at Lionel Groulx station and from there you can buy a metro pass to go McGill station and walk to La Marq. However, we do not recommend taking the bus from the airport because it could be complicated to carry all the luggage, as there are no elevators in most metro stations.
