If your travel plans are flexible and you’re looking to save money on flights to Canada, then be sure to book your departure on a Thursday. Flying out on a Thursday, as well as a Wednesday, is your best option. Departing on a Monday tends to be the most expensive day of the week to fly to Canada.

For travellers who are journeying northward to Canada from the USA, there are a vast number of flight options that make the journey on a daily basis. The busiest transportation hubs in both countries will provide passengers with a range of options. Some of the more frequented departure locations in the United States are John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), which operates out of New York City in the northeast and is known as the busiest entry point into North America, and O’Hare International Airport (ORD), which services the midwestern city of Chicago, Illinois. Popular arrivals locations in Canada include Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), which is located in the east and considered the largest airport in Canada, and Vancouver International Airport (YVR), which is situated on Canada’s West Coast.

While there are several non-stop flight options to carry passengers to Canada from the USA, a majority of the services will include between one and two layovers prior to landing at their final destination. Depending on the departure and arrival locations in the two countries, the layover sites may be in any number of major cities in the US. However, some of the most frequented layover locations will include Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) in Michigan, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) in Washington state, and Charlotte-Douglas International Airport (CLT) in North Carolina. Depending on the origin and destination airports, as well as the specific layover airport scheduled for the route, these one- to two-layover flights can take anywhere from about 4h and 31min to around 19h 23min. They are not necessarily cheaper than direct options.

If you plan on staying within the major cities in Canada you'll find that all of them have good public transportation systems. The systems are a mixture of buses, light rail systems, underground trains, and trams. So if you plan on staying in large cities such as Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa, or Toronto you can easily get around the cities without having a car. If you are going to be traveling more extensively throughout the country a good option is to travel on the Via Rail Canada service that offers train travel throughout the country that also does a good job of connecting all of the major cities in Canada. If you are on either the east or west coast of the country you will find quite a few ferries and boats that offer service through the extensive numbers of waterways you will find in these areas. If you want to do your own driving you can certainly rent a car especially in some of the major cities and airports but bear in mind driving in Canada in the wintertime can be difficult so take that into account before hopping behind the wheel. One final way to travel throughout Canada is by flying. You will find regularly scheduled service between many of the major cities in Canada and you also find plenty of commuter options from these major cities to smaller towns throughout Canada.
