Fixed Price, Not Surge Pricing

Your rate is locked at booking. No algorithm decides your fare based on how many other people are requesting a ride at the same time.

No Queue, No App-Matching Wait

Skip the taxi stand line and the 'finding your driver' spinner. Your chauffeur is assigned and waiting before you land.

Professional Chauffeur, Not a Stranger's Personal Car

A uniformed, vetted chauffeur in a maintained executive vehicle — not a rideshare driver's personal car of unknown condition.

In-Terminal Meet & Greet

Your chauffeur waits inside Terminal 1 arrivals with a name board and helps with luggage — taxis and rideshare leave you to find your own way to the curb.

When you land at YUL, you generally have three options: the taxi stand, a rideshare app, or a pre-booked executive car. Each behaves differently once you're standing at arrivals with your luggage.

Montreal's taxi flat rate to downtown is provincially regulated and historically sits in the $41-$52 CAD range — straightforward, but you'll queue at the taxi stand and take whichever vehicle and driver come up next. Uber and Lyft add algorithmic pricing on top of that uncertainty: the same downtown trip can be inexpensive on a quiet Tuesday afternoon and surge past $80-$100 CAD the moment a storm hits, flights bank in together, or it's a holiday weekend — and you only see the real number after you request the ride.

Royalmount Limousine removes both unknowns, at a premium: our $149 CAD flat rate to downtown is set before you even board your flight and never changes — no surge, no meter, no queue. It's not the cheapest of the three options, but it's the only one you can price with certainty before you land. Your chauffeur tracks your flight, waits inside Terminal 1 arrivals with a name board, and drives a late-model Cadillac or Chevrolet Suburban. For business travelers who value a confirmed price and a confirmed pickup over rolling the dice with an app, that predictability is the whole point.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I take a taxi or Uber from Montreal airport?
Both work, but each has trade-offs: taxis use a regulated flat rate with a queue, and Uber/Lyft pricing surges unpredictably. A pre-booked executive car gives you a confirmed price and pickup time before you land.
How much is an Uber from Montreal airport to downtown?
Uber pricing at YUL is dynamic — it can be inexpensive during quiet periods but frequently surges to $60-$100+ CAD during rush hour, storms, or holidays. The fare is only shown once you request the ride.
What is Montreal's official taxi flat rate from the airport?
Montreal has a provincially regulated flat rate for taxis between YUL and downtown, historically in the $41-$52 CAD range (subject to change). You still queue at the taxi stand with no vehicle choice.
Is an executive car service more expensive than a taxi or Uber?
Usually — our fixed $149 CAD rate is higher than the regulated taxi flat rate and often higher than off-peak Uber. It includes a dedicated chauffeur, in-terminal meet & greet, and a premium vehicle, with the price locked in before you fly.
Do executive car services meet you inside the terminal like a taxi stand?
Yes. Your chauffeur waits inside YUL Terminal 1 arrivals with a name board after customs and escorts you directly to the vehicle.
