ok guys this might be pre-mature but asking anyway......currently I m waiting for mr, in the meanwhile I m making pcc and other stuff ready.
I was also thinking about travelling....a bit on economical side. checked on the internet and found out only PIA to be the direct flight to Toronto from Karachi and charging 240000 for 2 adults and 1 child.
one stop flights are emirates, Etihad, Qatar, Turkish...charging 310000, 270000, 340000 & 370000 respectively from Karachi to Toronto having stops in Dubai, abu dhabi, Doha & Istanbul.
there are other flights which are actually "fruit punch custard bowl"...u board one career, it stops on 3 to 4 places, career changed on each stop and finally u reach Toronto. typical example is like Karachi to Dubai by fly Dubai, Dubai to London by emirates, London to Chicago by klm and Chicago to Toronto by air Canada. it costs around 250000. but its an example, the careers can be different and charges can be up and down.
what should I do? I don't want to waste money on business and first class, I will only travel in economy. business or 1st class cost atleast 100000 more on avg. plus I don't want to get tired on long journey selection. like the fruit punch custard course will take anywhere from 22 to 44 hours of journey! man I will be deleted when I land at Toronto with a wife and kid!
what indian and bd members do? what route they select and which flights? how many stops and what are the charges? what if u don't select air india or biman?
also, there is one more thing, the online search service like on google or bing, they show some really cheap flights.....costing 240000 or below! but that option is fruit punch custard, there are 2 to 3 airlines involve and 3 to 4 stops and around 44hrs journey but saving are like 80000 on avg.
please suggest and advice. thanks.
