After clearing customs, I started walking over to the Marriott Montreal Airport. It was a pretty long walk to the lobby of the hotel. Checking in was really easy. The friendly front desk agent recognized my Platinum status and offered me a welcome amenity. I chose some Haagen Dazs ice cream and a bottle of water.
The room was very nice. Comfortable bed, nice shower, and a nice view of the airport. My only complaint would be the little bottles of shampoo/conditioner/etc. were already open and half used. I didn't really care enough to call the front desk about it, but it's still kind of gross.

After a restful night's sleep, I woke up really early and headed over to concierge lounge for breakfast. They had a really good spread. After a filling breakfast, I decided to go out into the city. I only had a few hours until my flight so I didn't get to see that much, but I plan to go back to Montreal soon. Another thing to note is that Montreal's public transit system is really easy. They have a bus that runs very frequently from the airport to downtown Montreal. Also, you can buy a card for $8 that will give you unlimited access on all of the city buses and metro for 24 hours.

Apparently Mubarak fled Egypt and opened a deli in Montreal |
Overall, it was a nice hotel stay, and it was nice to spend some time in Montreal. I packed up my stuff and made my way to airport security. I had to wait in a fairly long customs line, and after that I headed to the lounge. I really like Air Canada lounges. They usually look nice and have good food options.

Of course you have to drink Canada Dry in Canada (is it even Canadian?) |

Can't go wrong with Clamato |
I spent a little too much time in the lounge. When I arrived at the gate for my flight to Newark, even though I was there 15 minutes before departure, the gate agent said the doors were closed and I couldn't board. He rebooked me on the next flight out to Chicago. I was happy because I was being rebooked into Y class and on more convenient flights. Before I knew it, I was in Las Vegas and on my way to the Encore Wynn. Stay tuned for that post.
