If you are flexible on dates try to book on a Boeing 787-10 aircraft with KLM (they do run them on the Toronto-Amsterdam route). They have the modern 1-2-1 layout instead of the Boeing 777 and its 2-2-2 layout.

Montreal ๐ to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Airline: Qatar Airways
Price: From $2,797 CAD roundtrip
Connection: One layover in Doha, Qatar
Class: Business (#1 rated business class in the world with your own private โsuiteโ)
The absolute cheapest option to fly round-trip in Qsuites from Montreal to Doha without connecting to Jeddah is more than double at $6,500+ roundtrip ๐คฏ
Dates: Mid-September through October 2023
The only way to get the price so dynamically low is to take a 45 minute layover in Doha outbound and a 24 hour layover in Doha on return. It is a bit strange to have such a short/long layover combo but I think this works better than two 12 hour layovers.
Booking Advice: Click here to see the deal
To get this deal to work you must select the dates you want in Google Flights and then select โBook with Qatar Airwaysโ, then select the top flight option in each section on Qatar Airways site. I was able to get it to display the $2,797 price at the checkout screen on Qatar Airwayโs website.
