Cheap travel from T.O. to Amsterdam... suggestions?

[Poontos]

Anyone have any connections or sites, which would have very cheap prices on airline tickets for a trip from Toronto (Pearson Intl.) to Amsterdam?

Thanks!

hmm.. depends how soon u have to leave.. I know there are a bunch of compare shopping airline tickets places where u can get a ticket dirt cheap, but those usually require you to book months in advance.. if you have to leave in a week or 2, your best deal is usually the local travel agency.. unless you're like my dad who have almost 200,000 UA miles stored so I can fly anywhere for free =)

i'm looking to goto amsterdam, how long are you going for? I get United tickets 1/2 off so that helps...

Sorry.. for the delay (was out and about).

I am probably going from the 16th of August, until the 30th. As I have to be back for school.

I'd say try KLM but you'll probably get redirected to a local carrier
that flys to Amsterdam anyway, and will cost the appropiate amount from where ever your flying from.

Amsterdam is THE european hub, so you may get some deals from obscure airlines that use it, entirley depends on your location, Toronto is gonna be expensive unless you know someone in the industry.

Im local so $160 rtn any old airline max, but I'm the sort that will live in an airport for a week to get a good cancellation.[anywhere]

Amsterdam is one of the best capital cities Ive visited in the world,
tho hotels can get full in conferance season, as anywhere, so beware.

You will have a good time ,you just won't remember any of it

Raoulduke,


I will be staying with friends, near Amsterdam.


Stiggy,


Thanks, do you have KLM's web address (I`ll try the obvious guesses)?

I am soooo pumped to go! I have never been over to Europe.

Blueapple,

Thanks I found it. I thought the prices looked good, but then I realized they were US $$$'s.
