Bangladeshi who are planning to fly to Canada which flight to catch?

Etihad leaves at 6:30 am, for which we have to reach airport at 3:30 am which is very inconvenient.Cathey Pacific leaves at 1: 55 am, for which we have to reach airport at 11:00 pm which is also not that convenient.

Emirates fare is too high. Jet Airways passengers has to lay over 8-9 hours at Mumbai or at Delhi and also has another lay over at Loandon or at Brussels.

But there is one carrier (Pakistal International Airlines) which leaves at 5:30 pm and reach toronto at 15:00 on the next day. Airline gives hotel at karachi stopover. After taking full night's peaceful sleep another journey on the next day at 8:45 Pakistan time.Total journey Karachi to Toronto non stop 15 h 15 m. So it is convenient for Bangladeshis. Most bangladeshis are unaware of this flight, I belive.

It is also cheaper than Etihad, Emirates, Cathey and Jet and it allows 2 pcs (28 kg instead of 23 kg) luggage per person to toronto. What else you require?

PIA is good. I would say as you guys are going first time, you should look out for;
1) Cheapest option
2) Airline which gives you more luggage option as you can carry more luggage with you rather than booking it separately and paying bonkers.
