Sample flights
At the time of writing, the following flights were priced as listed. We cannot guarantee that the below round-trip flights will be available when you book, so act fast if any of them catch your eye.
- John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to YYZ for $421 (available February to April)
- Dulles International Airport (IAD) to YYZ for $443 (available February to March)
- LaGuardia Airport (LGA) to YYZ for $462 (available February to March)
- O'Hare International Airport (ORD) to YYZ, with one stop, for $473 (available February to August)
- Miami International Airport (MIA) to YYZ, with one stop, for $595 (available February to June and August)
- Midway International Airport (MDW) to YYZ, with one stop, for $676 (available February to June)
The cheapest first-class fares we could find were departing from JFK on Delta. For example, you could depart New York on the morning of March 8 and arrive in Toronto less than two hours later.
United also offers similarly priced and speedy nonstop flights departing from IAD during the same period.
If you're a Miami resident and don't mind adding a layover to your journey (one in Charlotte on the outbound flight and one in New York on the return journey), take a flight later in the year. Depart April 30 and return May 7 for just $595 round trip with American.
As these fares are also for first class, you can rest assured that you won't find yourself tacking on any additional baggage fees alongside the initial cost of the fare.
