This Sunday, we had the great pleasure of welcoming close to 200 participants to YUL for the 10th edition of the Premium Kids event.  

This day is a unique opportunity for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) to learn about the airport process and reduce their apprehension about flying.  

It is also the “opportunity of a lifetime” for the parents of these children, who are now in a better position to assess the feasibility of family travel and are better equipped to deal with the processes and formalities of departure and arrival.  

We would like to thank the YUL community partners for their involvement, year after year, in the organization of this event: Air Transat, Autisme Montréal, Giant Steps, Transport Canada, CBSA, CATSA, GardaWorld, HMS Host and the Marriott Terminal Montreal Airport Hotel. 

We would also like to thank our valued volunteers who undoubtedly helped make this day a memorable one for these families.   

We are already looking forward to the next edition!
