I thought the 747 bus was fine and it had a stop one block from our hotel. We thought about getting a taxi from the airport for the 3 of us, but then figured we would get 3 days of metro usage as a bonus for about the same cost.
Is this available without buying the OPUS card for $6 extra? For a 3-day visit I would rather just get the single 3-day pass for $18 at YUL arrivals, but the web site seems to say the airport won't sell it:
"Transit fare only sold on reusable OPUS card, available from these vending machines for $6."
