Find affordable family flights from Canada

Planning a family holiday from Canada starts with finding the right flights at the right price.

Search flights from all major Canadian airports and find deals that work for your family's budget and schedule.

How to find cheap family flights from Canada

How to find cheap family flights from Canada

Finding affordable family flights requires planning and flexibility. Start by searching early — 2 to 3 months before your travel date is ideal. Use Kiwi.com to compare fares across multiple airlines and departure airports. For families in southern Ontario, checking Hamilton and Buffalo alongside Toronto Pearson can reveal significant savings. Book mid-week flights (Tuesday or Wednesday) for the best prices. Consider splitting the booking if children qualify for discounted fares on certain airlines, and always factor in baggage costs when comparing prices.

When to book family flights from Canada

The best time to book depends on when you're travelling. For March Break, book by December or January. For summer travel, start searching in March or April. For Christmas holidays, book by October. Canadian school schedules drive peak demand, so booking before other families snatch up the best fares is crucial. Shoulder seasons — late May, September, and early October — offer the best value, as children are still in school and fares are significantly lower.

Best time to fly as a family from Canada

The cheapest times for family travel are the shoulder seasons: late May (before summer holiday pricing kicks in), September (after Labour Day), and October (around Thanksgiving). If you must travel during peak periods, mid-week flights are consistently cheaper than weekend departures. Early morning and late evening flights also tend to be less expensive and can work well for families — children often sleep during red-eye flights.

4.5

I had a problem with my return flight as I had a stopover and my first flight was late and made me miss my second flight. kiwi quickly and easily rebooked me on the next flight. the process was transparent and guided by customer service over the phone instead of a machine or chat, which is greatly appreciated in such a delicate situation. I don't usually leave comments or ratings but on this occasion they have earned a positive comment.

5.0

I had heard not great things about kiwi so was really nervous about booking with them. however service was great and flights went smoothly (they even checked in for me!), so it was all in all a terrific experience. I especially liked how quickly they responded to my many queries and how patient they were with me. excellent customer service!
