Level-2 CATSA is the whole sterile job. There is no 16:30 CBP trap here because there is no preclearance.

Official counters generally open 3 hours before international flights and 2 hours before transborder/domestic, and usually close an hour before departure — confirm with the airline. Live CATSA PBS waits post on catsa-acsta.gc.ca; a daytime snapshot in this research window was 5–10 minutes, overnight can read Not available.

Bags, ICE, taxis, Nourcy, and the RTC machine sit on the ground floor. After CATSA you are on the second-floor holdroom around Gates 29–37.

One sterile side after the single checkpoint. Wrong-level panic is the usual first-timer mistake, not a second terminal.

Sit-down is Blaxton at Gate 33 (from 03:30 until the last flight). A&W is Gate 30 (03:00–20:00). Brûlerie Rousseau par Nourcy is Gate 32 (03:00–20:00).

Landside Nourcy Café Traiteur (03:30–20:00, ground floor by check-in) is for meeters. Lobbie is still not a live restaurant. Duty Free at Gate 33 follows international banks only.

The 97-seat Café at Gate 29 opened 16 Jun 2026. Club Med is boarded up. Boréal is still a fall-2026 card.

Eligible Aeroplan 50K+, Star Gold, premium Aeroplan cobrand cards, and Business on Air Canada / Star Alliance from YQB. Generic Air Canada Café boilerplate still says “domestic only” — the 16 Jun 2026 YQB press is the location-specific rule. DragonPass is not on today’s official Café pages.
