- Long flights are easier with an aisle seat, water and regular walks.
- Compare one-stop options through Europe, which can offer different times.
Getting to and from the airports
Dubai: The Dubai Metro Red Line stops at Terminals 1 and 3 of DXB; DWC is further south and mostly reached by road.
Toronto: From Pearson, the UP Express train reaches Union Station downtown in about 25 minutes; Billy Bishop sits on an island by downtown and is linked by a short pedestrian tunnel.
Always confirm transport times on the official airport or transit website, especially for late-night arrivals.
How to compare fares fairly
The first price you see is rarely the whole story. Before you choose, add the extras you actually need, such as a checked bag, a seat together if you are travelling as a family, and any change or cancellation flexibility. A fare that looks lower can end up costing more once those are added, while a slightly higher fare that includes a bag may be the better deal. Compare the total for your whole party, and check the connection time and airport on every itinerary, not just the price.
Flexibility is the most reliable money-saver. If your dates can move by a day or two, use the calendar view in the search results to see how prices change across the week. Flying midweek or at less popular times of day often helps. Setting a price alert and booking once a fare falls inside your budget is calmer, and usually smarter, than checking every few hours.
Before you book: documents and rules
Check that your passport is valid for the whole trip (many countries ask for six months beyond your return date), and look up visa or electronic travel authorisation rules on the official government website of every country you will enter, including any you only connect through. Baggage allowances differ by airline and fare type, so read our baggage rules guide and pack using our travel checklist.
