Cheap Flights from Toronto to Budapest — $377

Toronto is served mainly by Toronto Pearson International (YYZ) — the city’s primary international hub with a full range of global carriers and legacy airlines, plus some low-cost options; it’s typically viewed as mid- to higher-priced for international travel. Pearson sits about 25 km northwest of downtown; the UP Express train usually takes around 25 minutes to Union Station (fares commonly fall in a moderate range), while taxis and ride-shares can take 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. For budget-conscious travelers, Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) on the waterfront is a smaller, convenience-focused airport used mostly by regional and short-haul carriers, about 5–10 minutes from downtown by ferry or 15–20 minutes by shuttle; it can be cost-competitive for nearby connections. Pros: Pearson offers extensive international connections and amenities; Billy Bishop is very close to downtown and quick to access. Cons: Pearson can be busy with longer queues and variable transfer times; Billy Bishop has limited long-haul options and smaller facilities.
