Cheap flights from Ponta Delgada to Toronto Pearson International

Ponta Delgada is the largest city in the Azores and, as such, a popular destination for travellers who want to enjoy the stunning scenery of these islands. The Azores are an unforgettable experience and they offer spectacular volcanos, gorgeous beaches, and relaxing hot springs.

When the time comes to head back to Canada, only one airline, Azores Airlines, offers direct flights from Ponta Delgada to Toronto Pearson International. Alternatively, you could catch a TAP Portugal flight to Lisbon and connect from there to Toronto, which may be easier since TAP is (like Air Canada) a Star Alliance member. Connecting through Lisbon will also give you many more options for flying to Toronto, although the flight time will be longer. Signing up for Price Alerts can help you land a great deal on this route, while the monthly search feature is a great way to find the best time to fly.

Inside: Ponta Delgada Airport

Ponta Delgada Airport is a small but modern facility, which makes finding your way around easy. It also has very reliable WiFi and some excellent duty-free shopping. Hours, however, can be a bit unpredictable, so make sure you plan accordingly or else you may be stuck waiting outside the terminal. Security and check-in tends to be quick, but, as with any airport, delays can happen during peak hours. Give yourself plenty of time and make sure you bring your passport.

Landing in Toronto Pearson International

Azores Airlines lands at Terminal 3 of Toronto Pearson. While Terminal 3 is the oldest terminal at the airport, it is still a rather modern facility and pretty easy to navigate. In the arrivals hall there is a Subway restaurant and a Tim Hortons for you to grab something to eat after your long flight. Air Canada lands at Terminal 1, which is newer and larger. Both terminals have taxis waiting right as you exit the doors. If you want to rent a car then there are rental agencies located on the first floor of the parking garage. Discount rental agencies are located offsite and are accessible via a free shuttle.

Toronto is Canada's largest city and a great place to spend a couple days. The city's neighbourhoods are diverse and eclectic, with each one offering its own unique identity and delicious restaurants. The CN Tower, of course, is an iconic attraction and not to be missed. If you want to get out of the city for a day or two you should head to the world-famous Niagara Falls, which is just as famous for its casino and tourist attractions as it is for the natural wonder of the falls itself. If you head north to the Muskoka Region (commonly referred to as Cottage Country) you can enjoy lakes, forests, and the spectacular Algonquin Park. Skyscanner's hotel search feature can help you find a place to stay either in Toronto or the surrounding area.
