Quickly & easily find cheap flights with tripcentral.ca

Finding cheap flights can be a daunting task, but we've made it simple, fast, & complete.

We use a multiple source search for more fares & options than a standard search.  Then we compare the flight durations and fares to show you not only the cheapest fare, but the “best value” of both best fares and decent times according to our proprietary scoring system. 

We purposely eliminate ridiculous connections that no one would want, but can be a few bucks less and end up at the top of our competitors' results.  We only quote in Canadian Dollars - not all sites do this especially for flights departing from the US.  You'll only see flights for dates you requested - we will never slip in some alternative on different dates - that's just confusing.  You should consider the total cost of the trip (overnights, airport waiting time, baggage fees, seat selection) and there are differences in seat pitch not only by airline, but aircraft.

"Savings" expressed by our competitors are outright lies, and so are their "price guarantees" – they are loaded with fine print.  Check out their Better Business Bureau ratings and reviews versus ours!

And buying directly from the airline is no cheaper!  If anything happens (weather, strikes, etc) you are just a number.

• As you type your departure and arrival cities, if you see an option that says "All Airports," click on it. We’ll sort out the cheapest flights for you from other nearby airports.  For example YTO will check both Pearson and the Island.  LON will check Gatwick and Heathrow all at once
• Enter the correct number of adults and children in your group. Many people leave it at one adult, but our system will search and verify for the correct number of people. You don't want to be disappointed that an option has only one seat, and you need four.
• With the exception of peak travel periods, we find that the cheapest flights tend to be available inside a 60-day departure window.
• Flights at the very last minute can be cheap when there is excess supply.  But most often, flights at the last minute are more expensive as the airlines price to capture business travelers
• Check out the advanced options – multi city searches (fly into one city and out of another, or multi leg)
• If you have inflexible dates, or need to be in a certain place at a specific time, you may want to book earlier.  Peak periods include long weekends, holidays, school breaks, etc. It's best to book these well in advance, not only to secure a great deal, but to secure a seat!
• You can come back to our site anytime and relaunch your search with just one click.  You’ll see them right under the search form when you return
• For cheap flights to the USA, check US border cities like Buffalo, Detroit, Bellingham, etc.  Click the MODIFY button and change the departure point or the dates. Then use "View Results' to completely compare these previously searched flight options.
• For cheap flights within Canada, try alternative airports like Hamilton, Kitchener/Waterloo, London, etc.  If prices are high, try two one ways
• To Europe and elsewhere, often cheap fares require a minimum 7 day stay.  There are great business class fares to Europe but most require a minimum stay of 10 days.  Our agents can help to ferret these out for you
• Many cheap fares require additional fees for seat selection.  We recommend it, but sometimes a slightly higher fare gives seat selection, checked luggage benefits, and more flexible rules for changes.
