That's extortionate.
You can find flights so much cheaper than that.

Apparently the direct flights are quite dear but indirect flights less so?
Suppose it depends how keen you are to fly direct and some people will like the
convenience of having it all sorted for them.
If people can afford a grand for Toronto I hope they can also find £10 a month for the squad builder. 😉

Said it previously flying to NY is the way to go.
You can get internal transfers for peanuts.

Flight to Istanbul then a 8hr wait You get what you pay for !! |

You could watch Istanbul Hornets,though,part of Ralph Rimmers expansion plans |

Not if you fly Joel Moon airlines.
Leeds is tonnes of miles nearer Sydney than Salfordshire.

c. £1000 is an ok price I guess if you are travelling on your own, even for a short trip, as its a full package and there's no saving pp for sharing a hotel room etc. We are going from Gatwick on BA for 7 nights, staying in a 4 star hotel in an upgraded room (wife is picky...) and we are paying around £2k in total, as hotel costs are extortionate...will probably re-book the hotel without paying the cancellation premium at a later date... Interestingly, when we booked a month or so back, there were no direct flights whatsoever from Gatwick to Toronto on the Thursday so we are flying out on the Friday which is not ideal...

Be prepared for a 3-4 hour wait. If you are flying to Toronto from NYC (which we did after Boston), consider flying into Billy Bishop Airport which is a stones throw from the centre of Toronto. You can fly back to NYC from there too which saves you a trip to Pearson International. |
