Flights
 
Hi,

I am going to be moving to Toronto in the coming months and was hoping to move in August, but the flights are currently around £350 for a one-way flight, whereas in May and June they are around £170. My question is, are the August prices likely to change nearer the time, or am I better off booking now to travel in September instead (I can get a flight for £180 in September).

Many thanks

You're spending 10s of thousands of dollars moving to a new country to start a new life, is a matter of 170 pounds or so really a big deal in this decision, enough to change it by months?

I'm not really moving as such, I've got a one year international experience canada visa. I'd rather spend my money on better things than flights, especially when I probably don't have to.

August is peak season. They will only go up as flights fill. Pretty much every plane to/from Canada is full in the summer (except up front). June/Sept will be cheaper.

Thanks for the info. Looks like September it is then!

Looks at the price of return flights rather than one way - surprisingly enough they are often cheaper!
