Encyclopedia > Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport

Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (Aéroport international Pierre-Elliott-Trudeau de Montréal) or Montreal-Trudeau for short, is an international airport serving Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Its IATA code is YUL. It is the busiest airport in the province of Quebec and the 3rd busiest airport in Canada serving 9.0 million passengers in 2003. Currently the airport is completing a C$700 million expansion plan that will double the capacity of the terminal.


Montreal-Trudeau was formerly known as Montreal Dorval International Airport. It is located in Dorval, Quebec on the Island of Montreal, now part of the borough of Dorval-L'Île-Dorval in Montreal. The airport was renamed by the federal government in honour of former Canadian Prime Minister, the late Right Honourable Pierre Elliott Trudeau, on January 1, 2004, the renaming having been announced in September the previous year. This move provoked opposition from Quebecers, especially Quebec sovereignists opposed to some of the policies of the former Prime Minister.
