YUL YOW

Private jet charter from Montreal to Ottawa

The route from Montreal (YUL) to Ottawa (YOW) covers approximately 151 km, with a median block time of 3h 14m on flights we actually tracked.

Traffic between Montreal and Ottawa is thin — 19 private flights tracked in 12 months, so aircraft are usually positioned in from elsewhere and one-way pricing is the norm.

Median block time on tracked flights is 3h 14m, about 183 minutes longer than a straight distance-and-cruise-speed estimate — taxi, routing and traffic flow account for the difference.

The Bombardier Global 7500 dominates the route, accounting for 44% of tracked movements, followed by the Cessna Citation CJ3 and the Bombardier Challenger 600 — a useful sanity check when a broker offers you something much larger or much older.

Flying back from Ottawa is 64 minutes quicker: 2h 10m against 3h 14m on this direction, measured on tracked flights. Winds aloft run west to east at these latitudes, so the eastbound leg rides the jet stream and the westbound one fights it. Plan a there-and-back with different block times, not one figure doubled — the Ottawa to Montreal leg has its own page with its own numbers.

The smallest cabin that covers 151 km without a fuel stop is the very light jet at $1,500-4,500 an hour, and the type most often quoted here is the Bombardier Global 7500. How the hourly rate turns into a total is set out in the private jet cost guide, and if the dates are loose it is worth checking empty leg flights on this direction first.

Money-Saving Tips
You are billed for 3h 14m of block time on this sector, not for the 151 km — an aircraft based at either end saves more than a cheaper hourly rate
Ask for the Bombardier Global 7500 first: it is the type most often flown here, so it is the least likely to be positioned in empty
Take an empty leg if the date is flexible — repositioning flights on this direction run well below the normal rate
Compare multiple aircraft options rather than the cheapest hourly rate alone
Book 24-48 hours ahead: same-day requests pay for whatever is available, not for what fits
