Good to know
- Weekend flights are often busier, so a midweek departure can change the price picture. Ask about event dates before you lock in travel.
- In winter, de-icing and snow can slow operations, so avoid tight connections where you can.
- Compare the total with bags included, not just the base fare. See baggage fees and taxes and fees.
