Hello everyone. Sorry if this request is too specific, but I am planning to travel to Barcelona from Toronto, Canada (return) in the last week of April 2007 and not sure what is a “reasonable” fare. Also, if anyone knows any good website (those cheap airfare sites are only for U.S. I think) for flying out of Canadian cities (I only know expedia.ca and aircanada and they were not cheap), I would really appreciate if you could share. Thanks in advance.

You probably won’t get a cheap fare to Barcelona. Your best hope is to look for the cheapest fare possible, and then find a way by budget flights to Barcelona, allowing plenty of time for misconnects. This won’t work if your schedule is tight. Is this possible for you?

Also consider flying from Buffalo or Detroit.

I used ITA’s month search (see sticky post), and I guessed your stay about 1 week. $766 USD roundtrip on Alitalia via Milan. Or, from BUF, it’s only $613 USD roundtrip (interestingly to me, only $500 to MAD). Alternatively, $477 to London Gatwick; look for low-cost flight hops between Gatwick and BCN with www.whichbudget.com
