To the point This Air Canada Maple Leaf has everything you could ask for: quiet, plenty of space to sit and work, excellent light and views on the tarmac, an open buffet, and a pleasant lounge before starting a trip to the United States. Discover our photos in this report.

Lounge presentation: the only transborder terminal

At Montreal’s Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, YUL, there is an Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge in the international terminal and several other lounges, including the National Bank World Mastercard Lounge, available to Priority Pass members.

Within the transborder terminal, there is only one: the Maple Leaf lounge of Air Canada. Unfortunately – or fortunately say those who can enter – this one is not accessible to Priority Pass members.

Seating and Rest Areas

The lounge areas are multiple and well distributed with different types of leather chairs depending on whether you want to eat, rest or work. As you can see, this lounge is not crowded in the early morning, it’s comforting!

High counters are available as offices with all necessary connections.

The living room offers a beautiful view of the tarmac thanks to its large windows that provide excellent light. We really appreciate this view from the living room!
