Showcasing Montreal's identity
The expansion of the Montreal-Trudeau international jetty presented the opportunity to rethink the airport’s interior, proposing a layout more adapted to passengers’ needs and reflective of Montreal’s vibrancy.
Luminous, contrasting spaces were created with a new range of colours and materials. A unique and memorable experience now promotes the city as a place of innovation as well as a vital, welcoming urban centre. Aéroports de Montréal reduces its ecological footprint with this new reflection of Montreal, with highly secure facilities adapted to the latest technologies.
This vast expansion project creates an attractive, contemporary setting to showcase Montreal as a festive Canadian city, displaying its inviting, high-tech side to travellers. The new geometry optimizes the apron, aircraft parking and operational support areas to improve the efficiency of all services during peak hours.
