We will be four adults--with luggage--needing to get from the Airport to the Springhill Suites. I know taxis should be about $40 CDN (plus tip?). Imagining, with four of us, we'd need two taxis...Any alternatives? Thanks...

An alternative is the airporter bus route 747 from Montreal airport to downtown (centre-ville). Transfer at Berri-UQAM station to the Old Port route 715 bus which has stops very close to the Springhill Suites. If you have an iOS device, the "Transit" app can guide you, or use one of the web pages that plan transit travel. Of course, the cost of CDN$40 for the four of you is not a savings unless you can use the 24 hour pass on your tickets. For a single traveler, the $10 fare would be a nice savings from $40 taxi.

 

The 747 bus has a suitcase shelf area. The 715 not, but people ride Montreal buses and metro subway with suitcases all the time.

 

Quoting the page - The cost of a ticket is $10. In turn, it offers you unlimited transit use on STM's bus and métro networks for 24 consecutive hours.

That is for on the island travel if you can make use of it, perhaps to visit the underground shopping. At the P.-E.-Trudeau airport: There is four fare vending machines in the international arrivals area. Payment in cash, by debit card or with VISA or MasterCard credit cards are accepted.

We did a taxi for $40 for four with luggage from a (10 day cruise) to YUL with no problem.
