As thousands of Canadians are planning their summer holidays overseas to either visit with relatives, see the sights, or just explore Europe on their own, getting there can be the most expensive and frustrating part. With charter flights flying out of most major Canadian cities such as Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec and Halifax to over 30 European cities, the possibilities of securing cheap flights to Europe are better than ever. Granted, you may be limited to the days you can fly out or return, but the competition in the Canadian travel industry is allowing for more options and choices than ever before resulting in big savings.

For instance, when flying to England, London Heathrow is the airport that comes to most travelers minds. While this is the main hub when flying to London, there are many other options when planning your trip to England. Consider flying into Gatwick airport instead of Heathrow or look at flying into either Manchester or Birmingham if you’re visiting the western part of the country. These airports are all serviced by Canadian charters and are a lot cheaper than flying the major airlines. With a bit of flexibility, you can fly into an alternative airport and save some money.

With Air Transat being based out of Montreal, it’s no surprise they have flying to France covered offering 7 destinations including Paris, Nice, Lyon, Nantes, Bordeaux, Marseille and Toulouse. Having such a selection of flights blanketing this favorite destination amongst Canadian travelers with the most options available, you are bound to find your destination available at a price lower than you’d expect.

Even if you aren’t looking for an alternative airport for convenience or availability, taking a charter can get you overseas for less even into the major airports. You can get direct flights on Sunwing or Air Transat to such destinations as Amsterdam, Dublin, Glasgow, Madrid, Lisbon, Frankfurt and Rome. Air Transat is also flying to other cities that previously were only offered by the major carriers such as Istanbul Turkey.

Tour Operators are offering up more than just flights to Europe. Years ago, mostly noted for just providing cheap air-only flights overseas, they now offer up a plethora of options including cruises, escorted tours, car rentals, hotels, day excursions, rail passes, even attraction tickets! These add-ons, combined with the number of options you have in gateways out of Canada and the numerous destinations being offered, really allow you the easiest way to plan and experience Europe this summer.

So, whether you are going to the hotspots like London, Glasgow, Frankfurt, Paris, and Amsterdam; or going somewhere a little out of the way like Faro, The Azores, Vienna, Barcelona, Pescara, Bordeaux, Venice and Istanbul, Canadian charter flights such as Air Transat and Sunwing have the options, choices, and selection to ensure your European Vacation is a memorable one.
