Montreal
Flying empty to Montreal: what to know.
Montréal-Trudeau has business aviation terminals at Dorval, home to some of Canada's largest charter operators.
Empty legs to Montreal land at Montréal-Trudeau (YUL), the private terminal a full charter would use.
By private jet, Montreal is about 0h 58m from New York. A leg is only useful when its date and direction fit, so check the flight time against your plans before you enquire.
If nothing arrives in Montreal on your date, look at the lists for Ottawa (82 nm) and Toronto (274 nm).

Why the price drops
A client pays for a one-way charter from Montreal to Halifax. The aircraft still has to fly home. Rather than fly it empty, the operator sells that return flight for a fraction of the charter price.
- The date is set by the operator
- It follows the original booking, so it suits trips that can move by a day.
- You book the whole aircraft
- The price is for the jet, not a seat. Bring your own group.
- It can change
- If the original trip moves, the leg moves too. We always offer a full charter alternative.
Outbound
Full charter rate, paid by the first client
Return
Sold below the charter rate, often by half or more
