Airports

  • Burlington International Airport: hosts flights from JetBlue, United, Delta, and Porter airlines. Direct flights to Atlanta, Charlottle, Chicago, Detroit, Denver, Newark, New York (JFK and LGA), Orlando, Philadelphia, Toronto City, and Washington DC (IAD and DCA). 10-15 minute drive from downtown Burlington, VT. The airport is often busiest in the morning but lines through security usually move very quickly no matter the time of day.
    • For early morning flights, make sure you schedule taxis ahead of time.
  • Montréal-Pierre Elliot Trudeau International Airport: Approximately 30 airlines operate within Montreal’s international airport serving 100s of destinations domestically within Canada as well as destinations within the US and abroad. The airport is 1.5-2 hrs away from Burlington depending on traffic (highway and at the border). You will need a passport to cross the border and utilize the airport, but it is often a cheaper option than Burlington International Airport especially when traveling abroad.
    • Many hotels near the airport will provide shuttle service and free parking for up to 7 days upon booking a one-night stay.
