Overview

Opened on December 1st, 2016, the new Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge at Montreal Trudeau airport in the international terminal replaces the former lounge by gates 50-51.

Description courtesy of Air Canada:

Located between gates 52 and 53, the new lounge measures 1,022 square meters and has seating capacity for 259 customers. With floor to ceiling windows offering spectacular tarmac views, it reflects a contemporary and elegant design. Eligible Air Canada and Star Alliance customers will discover a new exclusive lounge experience with a calm and comfortable environment of understated luxury in which to relax or work prior to their flight.

The new lounge offers customers a full service bar and complimentary alcoholic beverages including a selection of Canadian wines, a live food station with a chef, barista-style specialty coffees, complimentary Wifi, a cyber work counter and facilities, living rooms, lounge chairs, showers with heated floors and an exclusive private area for special guests. It also features multiple zones inspired by nature including a garden ceiling that creates the illusion of a forest canopy with ceramic pieces by Quebec artisan Pascale Girardin that imitate the sound of rustling leaves, travel inspired photography by Montreal based Nicolas Ruel, special maple wood and Ontario Eramosa marble. Custom furnishings are by local Canadian designers Nienkämper, Mobilier Moderne, and Brent Comber.

Apparently our first-class tickets from RNO – LAX – YUL – LIS with over a three-hour layover in Montreal (from 18:14 to 21:40) won’t give us a chance to use this Maple Leaf Lounge because it closes at 21:45. Why close so early?
