Cheap Flights back to Canada

[Pinot]

Does anyone know which Airline, or which company offers low-cost flights from the UK to Canada?

I used to use Zoom Airlines for really really cheap flights from London back to my hometown Winnipeg; however they have since closed shop and are no longer running. So I was wondering if there was an alternative.

I would appreciate any tips.

Flyglobespan is supposed to be pretty cheap, and they fly to Calgary, Vancouver, Halifax and Hamilton (in the GTA).

Thanks for the link,you are right, they are really cheap. However, I need to get to Winnipeg. Any suggestions? I may just need to get a connecting flight to Wpg.

You can catch a connecting flight on WestJet from Calgary, Vancouver or Hamilton to Winnipeg.

Does anyone know when the best time to book a flight is? Is it cheaper the earlier you book or does it get cheaper the longer you leave it?

I am planning on traveling in Mid-October, so when is the best time to get a good deal?

Generally, the sooner you book, the better, in terms of price. Occasionally there may be some last-minute discounts, but these are never guaranteed. So if you plan on leaving in October and you want to get a good price, I would start looking now.

Also, Tuesdays and Wednesdays seem to be the cheapest days to fly.

Thanks, I have always wondered what was the cheapest day to fly! That's interesting. Good tip.
