DragonPass

Montreal's international-departures lounge for National Bank cardholders, DragonPass and pay-in guests.

About this lounge

The National Bank Lounge is Montreal-Trudeau's international-departures lounge for National Bank World Elite Mastercard holders, located airside near Gate 53 after the security check. While the card is the main route in, the lounge also welcomes DragonPass members and other passengers on a pay-in basis, so it's a flexible option if you're departing to an international (non-US) destination. Inside you'll find a hot and cold buffet, a bar serving wine, beer and spirits, complimentary soft drinks, Wi-Fi, flight-information screens and a dedicated children's area. It opens daily from 04:00 to 22:00, covering both early-morning and evening international departures.
