If you’re flying through New York, LaGuardia Airport is night and day compared to many older airports. It’s clean, spacious, and has plenty of food and beverage options. I also found both drop-off and pick-up to be very easy and efficient, making the overall travel experience much smoother.

Delta is great because when you land, you are already on the domestic side of the airport. Since I take the train/subway downtown, way cheaper than a taxi or Uber, I do not have to take a shuttle all the way around the airport to the subway: I just take a quick link train and walk a short distance. Easy and fast! Like travel should be.

I would recommend Westjet. I suggest checking in at the agent counter. My husband & I don't mind sitting apart on a short flight rather than paying to sit together, but the agent was able to get us seats together. I did think the prices for selected seats was reasonable. Baggage fees were confusing & a bit pricy, but carry-ons were free & plane had large overhead bins.

Denver International is a really nice airport, but it should be for a hub! A lot of stuff is actually open until 10:30 or 11pm, so that’s nice. Pretty good place to do an overnight layover too…just make sure to get some snacks in case you can’t sleep.

If you are seated in the rearmost seats of the aircraft, overhead baggage compartments may already be occupied with first-aid kits, "emergency snacks for tarmac waits," etc. Contact flight attendants immediately to see if they can help you find alternative places, especially if the flight is full.

Toronto's customs was one of the faster experiences I've had. They opened four more lanes to expedite the process when the lane got too long, to ensure we would all get through within around 15 minutes. The public transportation within the city is also top notch, in my opinion.

Baggage policies encourage too much carry-on, making boarding stressful. Anticipate in advance, pack appropriately. Label your carry-ons well so if you decide to check them, they're ready to go.

FAQs for booking flights from Canada to the United States

  • Are there direct flights to the United States?

    The flight networks between Canada and many cities in the U.S. are extremely well developed, with several direct flights per day, mostly from major Canadian hubs such as Toronto Pearson International Airport, Montreal-Pierre Trudeau International Airport (YUL), Vancouver International Airport (YVR), Edmonton Airport (YEG) and Calgary Airport (YYC). Air Canada provides direct flights to 60 destinations in the U.S., servicing, among others, LaGuardia (LGA) and Newark (EWR) in the New York area, as well as 5 destinations in both California and Florida. Many low-cost carriers such as Porter Airlines and WestJet also offer direct flights between the two countries.

  • Do I need a visa to travel to the United States?

    Canadian citizens do not require a visa to enter the United States and are generally granted a stay of up to 6 months upon arrival. However, you need to provide a valid passport when entering the U.S. by air, which has to be valid until your intended departure date.

  • I want to visit Rocky Mountain National Park. Where should I fly to?

    The most convenient airport to fly into if touring the Rocky Mountains is Denver International Airport (DEN). It is located about 145 km southeast of the east entrance of the park, and is serviced by many national carriers and low-cost airlines. You can either rent a car at the airport or take the Estes Park Shuttle which takes you to the park's entrance in about 2h and costs $45 (approximately C$ 60).

  • Which airport is the best when visiting Yellowstone National Park?

    The closest airport is Yellowstone Airport (WYS), located close to the west entrance of the park. However, it is serviced only seasonally by Delta Airlines, from Salt Lake City. You might find cheaper and more direct connections from Canada by flying into Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN), located about 140 km north of the park's west entrance, and serviced by several domestic airlines such as American Airlines, Delta Airlines and United.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from Canada to the United States?

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from Canada to the United States?

  • To road-trip along the famous Pacific Coast Highway in California, consider purchasing a multi-destination ticket so that you can fly into San Francisco International Airport (SFO), and leave from San Diego International Airport (SAN) after your drive.
  • If you want to visit the Great Lakes, the most convenient airport might be Chicago O'Hare Airport (ORD), which is one of the busiest airports in the United States and easily reachable from all major Canadian hubs.
  • To visit Anna Maria Island and the beaches of Florida's Emerald Coast, you can fly into Tampa International Airport (TPA) which is about a 1h drive away.
  • Be aware that car seat regulations for children vary depending on the state you are visiting in the U.S. Thus, you should check the respective state's regulations before your departure.
