Canadian carrier WestJet currently sells discounted premium economy class tickets from Dublin to Canada’s largest city, Toronto. Prices go as low as €624 for a roundtrip or €298 for a one-way ticket to Ontario. This fare includes a ride in recliner seats, similar to an American Domestic First product, and two checked bags of up to 23kg each. The fare shows brilliant availability in July and August 2025.
Oneways from Toronto to Dublin are more expensive at €465 (~CA$759).
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to Westjet with your selected flight dates. You can also check what online travel agencies have to offer, as they sell these tickets up to €50 cheaper.
WestJet operates up to two daily flights between Dublin and Toronto, both with Boeing 737MAX aircraft. These have three rows of recliner seats up front, in a 2-2 seating pattern compared to the regular 3-3 economy class seating. When booking on WestJet’s website, the cheapest option is only available when changing planes in Halifax in at least one direction. The flights between Toronto and Halifax are operated by Boeing 737MAX aircraft, too – and you will be seated in the premium section, as well.
Most European passport holders can stay in Canada for up to 180 days, but you must obtain an electronic travel authorization before your arrival in the country
Search & Book
According to the fare rules, these flights are on sale without an expiration date. There is no minimum stay required, henceforth the cheap one-way tickets.
You can use Google Flights to find additional flight dates or discounted one-ways. While the cheapest tickets are sold by OTAs on Skyscanner, we recommend booking directly with the airline.
Why is booking with an airline better than with an online travel agency?
More often than not, online travel agencies offer lower fares than airlines do. We still recommend booking with the airlines directly. There are two main reasons for that:
Better Customer Service
In case any problems like delays, cancellations or missed connections arise, you can communicate directly with the airline. The airline has to take care of you because you have a contract with them.
If a travel agency issues your ticket, you may have to reach out to them first. You also depend on your OTA to forward information like flight changes instead of receiving them directly from the airline. In many cases, you may get a prime exhibition of responsibility shifting rather than problem-solving.
This especially applies to premium tickets. You don’t want to spend more than €1,000 to wind up with some budget OTA’s telephone hotline in case anything goes wrong.
Baggage and Other Fees
Economy fares not including hold luggage are industry standard by now. In most cases, travel agencies charge much higher baggage fees than the airlines themselves. If bags are not included in your fare, airlines are often the cheaper alternative.
This also applies to other things like food services, insurances or priority treatment. In almost all cases, you pay less for additional amenities when booking on the airlines’ website.
