Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Salt Lake City, United States
Here is what to know before booking a flight to Salt Lake City from Montreal.
From Montreal, fares to Salt Lake City usually run between $405 and $650. The best fare spotted recently is $420 (about 8% below the typical price).
Salt Lake City sits in a wide valley with the Wasatch Mountains rising sharply right at its edge, so the ski slopes feel almost like a suburb. Downtown is orderly and easygoing, built around Temple Square, with a growing food and brewing scene. Come winter or summer, the mountains are minutes away and calling you up!
When to go
Winter, roughly December to March, is prime ski season with the famous dry Wasatch powder. Summer is warm and dry and good for hiking and the lakes, while spring and autumn are quieter with pleasant temperatures. Ski crowds peak around the holidays, so book those weeks early.
Getting there from Montreal
From Montréal or Toronto, Salt Lake City is usually a short one-stop trip through a US hub such as Chicago, Denver or New York, and sometimes closer to nonstop from Toronto. Because it is a US flight, you clear American customs along the way, and several Canadian airports offer US preclearance before you board. The airport is close to downtown and linked by the TRAX light rail.
What to see and do
- Temple Square and the historic city centre
- The Great Salt Lake and Antelope Island State Park
- The nearby Wasatch ski resorts like Alta and Snowbird
- The Natural History Museum of Utah
Good to know before you go
The currency is the US dollar and cards are accepted everywhere. The TRAX light rail runs from the airport through downtown and is handy and cheap, while Uber and Lyft fill the gaps and many resorts run their own ski shuttles in winter. English is the main language, tipping 18 to 20 percent is expected, and note that alcohol sales follow Utah's particular state rules.
