Date: 5/19/10 7:56 AM It sounds like it's time to start this thread! If you are looking for rides, offering rides, or wondering about travel partners from the airport or train station for the Montreal weekend, this is the place to be.
I will try to keep a summary of what is being offered/requested on this page.
1. Connie - leaving London Thursday 8am. Will pick passengers up on 401. So far - SueW at Port Union, and Sew2006 in the London area are tagging along.
2. Lacroise1 (Kelly) is arriving at the airport (YUL) at 12.47 Thursday and wants to know if anyone is coming in around the same time and wants to go to the hotel together. Brenda (Goal100) is arriving about the same time and would love to share a ride.
3. QValley Mary is arriving on Wednesday at 5pm. Is anyone else arriving Wednesday?
4. Lynelle is arriving Thursday morning about 9.30 and is wondering if anyone else is. -- Edited on 5/23/10 4:17 PM -- ------ Connie Bontje

Date: 5/19/10 8:03 AM I am travelling from London, Ont to Montreal on Thursday. I will be leaving London(ish) at 8am. Hopefully the traffic in Toronto won't be bad!
I know that Sue would like to travel with me. Sue, is there somewhere at the Port Union interchange you can leave your car?
If I leave at 8am, that should get me to that interchange at about 10.30 am.
Does anyone else want to travel with us? ------ Connie Bontje

I'm arriving at 1:29pm Thursday on a West Jet flight from Winnipeg. I'd gladly share a cab with you or even navigate public transport with you!

Date: 5/19/10 10:00 AM I may be arriving too early to share, but just in case: I should be at YUL on Wednesday at 5:10, Westjet from Toronto. Sharing a cab or Metro adventure would be fine. |

Date: 5/19/10 11:06 AM Hi Connie, I live about 5 minutes off the highway, so I could get my hubby to drop me off at the No Frills which is right at the corner of Port Union and 401. I'm happy to help drive too, unless you drive a standard -- ------ http://sewstashsew.wordpress.com/

Date: 5/19/10 5:35 PM I'll be arriving at the airport Thursday at 3:30 and have to be back at the airport by 6:00pm on Sunday. Is anyone heading in either direction around those times? I'd love to meet another PR'er. |

Sounds great. I dont mind which form a transportation we use. I am open to the adventure. I am flying US Airways. flight # 3424 from Philly PA. Have you been to YUL airport before and have suggestions where we could meet? See you there.
