First time in Montreal and my French is very minimal. I travelled solo and wanted to get the most out of my 4 day trip, so got a 3 day pass from the airport which covers airport shuttle and unlimited metro rides. It was a good decision.
The Montreal Metro is very easy to navigate - efficient way to get around the city and cover as many places as I can. Timetables are also very reliable. Had to leave as early as 4AM for the airport and was able to use the pass without any issues.
