Lowest fares from Montreal to Amsterdam
What to know before you book Montreal to Amsterdam
KLM flies nonstop from Montréal-Trudeau to Amsterdam Schiphol year-round, and Air Canada adds seasonal nonstop flights. Amsterdam is also KLM's hub, so a ticket through Schiphol is an easy way to reach the rest of Europe, Africa and the Middle East from Montreal.
Amsterdam as a one-stop gateway
KLM connects at Schiphol to well over a hundred cities. A trip from Montreal to Prague, Lisbon or Nairobi through Amsterdam is often one ticket and one short layover, and you can add a few days in Amsterdam for little or nothing extra.
From Schiphol into the city
Trains from the station under the terminal reach Amsterdam Centraal in about 15 minutes and run all day. Tap in with a contactless card instead of buying a ticket.
When it's cheapest
Late autumn and winter, outside Christmas, usually have the lowest fares. Tulip season (mid-April to early May) and summer are the busiest and priciest.
At the border
