Booking Your Canada Trip
Author: RockyWELL, I’m now on my way to Canada! If you’re reading this in response to seeing it posted at 10:10am – then I’ll be flying as you read!
But this isnt the subject of the article!
It’s now half way through August, so, time for summer holidays is drawing short, and Kids will be back at school in 2 weeks (or if you’re in Scotland .. in a few days!) so maybe it’s time to start dreaming again.. Many of us have had our holiday for the year – and we could get down thinking about how long it is until our next time off from work.. But instead, how about we have a look – at what could be in store for us next year huh? Optimism is always the best way of seeing things!
A My Travel A330 - my outbound flight in 2006, taken through one of the windows in the (now converted into a resteraunt) viewing area at Gatwick Airport
OKAY! Lets think earlyish next year.. In Ontario – particularly Toronto you get some absolutely perfect weather in May – the temperature never gets too hot, and usually is a comfortable teen temperature – with a nice warm sun. Also, booking a holiday in May also helps you save a valuable holiday day – as there are two opportunities to book your holiday over a bank holiday – so you only use 9 days instead of 10 over a two week break! – So! lets get planning!
Right.. So – FIRST UP! — Dates.
1st May 2010 – is a Saturday, so if we’re booking 2 weeks – we’d be flying back 15th May 2010
Now we have some dates, we can start looking at booking our flights etc! – Lets do Toronto!
SO – booking using Canadian affair – flights out from Gatwick Airport to Toronto Pearson – Return, Two people, flying out 01/05/10 return on 15/05/10 cost us £648.40 including all taxes!
Okay, that’s flights – now hotel!
Using Ebookers – The Super 8 Toronto East, ON offers us those dates for £581.56
So that means – effectively you have the basis of a holiday for two weeks, for two people in Toronto, Canada for just £1229.96 – or £614 per person!
Booking early really can pay off though – the prices for the flight above would have been £572.40 had you booked those flights last week!
So chin up everyone! Summer’s not quite over yet! Grab yourself some ice cold beer, cider or lemonade, break out the BBQ and enjoy the remainder of the summer – knowing next year you’ve got a great holiday to look forward to!
…….. of coarse .. this is if you dont take advantage of Canadas awsome skiing season! .. more on that coming up in the next few months!
