Have any of you been to Canada for a weekend?
One of my bff from home just got transferred to Calgary for a year. She suggested I drive there. I told her there was no way since it's a 23h drive! But I guess since MN is close to Canada she thought it was close lol. I looked at flights and it's around $700!!! Insanity. Is this a normal price? I was hoping to find something under $300.
Re: Have any of you been to Canada for a weekend?
I used to travel back and forth to Toronto from Minnesota and the cheapest was around $700 but could be up to $1200.
However, I had my husband fly from MSP to Buffalo, NY for $300 and it's a 100 mile drive from there to Toronto. Not sure where you live but you could possibly fly into a neighboring US city and rent a car to drive in.
FYI - Canada's land mass is twice as large as the US (Google maps is not to scale). Everything is effing far away.
Yes, I've been to Canada for the weekend many times. Well, BC. It'd be hard to see the whole country in a weekend!
I have no idea how that helps you, as I've never flown there, and if I had, it would be about $100.
Have you tried www.kayak.com ?
If you have flexible dates you should be able to see what the cheapest is going to be.
I live around Buffalo and it's like an hour drive from here. Toronto's a lot of fun!
Try flights to BUF?
This, except I go over frequently since I'm dating a guy from Canada. His family lives there.
Hehehe...my guy was born there too! He cracks me UP when he busts out the full on accent.
See, mine's Canadian, too, but he doesn't have an accent! He did spent a couple years living in Arkansas, and he can put on a redneck accent like no one's business! It is pretty funny but very unsexy.
G has more of a midwestern accent on a daily basis. But he can turn on the Canadian when he wants to, full of eh, yeah?, and no? all over the place.
My family is in Canada so I travel there often. Flight to Canada has been around average of $700 from my experience. Though I never flew into Canada as I always take the cheaper route to Canada which is to fly to Spokane, WA and then get a rental car. I normally can get a round trip ticket to Spokane for about 150 or less when I watch out for good deals.
My family lives about 8 hours from Spokane so that isn't too bad of a drive for us. I have a young son so it is not worth buying two full price tickets for the both of us.
I think my stay would have to be a minimum of 1 week to make it worth a trip unless you have the money to buy expensive tickets.
The guy I was dating most recently didn't usually have much of an accent, but he definitely would go full on Canadian sometimes!! Haha. Every time he said eh it cracked me up.
