Today I went to Travel Agent and he suggested a time and money saving route to Calgary from Islamabad.
Below is the flight schedule. Carrier is Emirates.
Departure 6 march 0315 from Islamabad ----- arrival Dubai 0545
Dubai departure 0745 ---- arrival London Heathrow Terminal 3 at 1135
London Heathrow terminal 5 departure 1335 ---- Calgary arrival at 1610 on 6 march.

Less transit time (almost 2 hours at Dubai and London). Price adult PKR 77000. Child PKR 64400.
One bag of 23 kg and standard hand carry allowed. For additional one bag of 23 kg 60$ US to be paid at Islamabad.
Previously I was thinking for a direct flight from Islamabad at 0840 on each Friday to Toronto for onward journey on a Canadian carrier to Calgary. But he suggested not to leave in the Morning, because you cant sleep the previous night (packing and talking to friends) and again you have a journey almost of 23 hours, so once you reach to the destination after almost 46 to 48 hours without sleep so you are totally exausted. Specially travelling with children and remember I dont have any relative or friend waiting at Calgary to assist for further process of temp accomodation.

Any comments/suggestion or better option with someone, please share for the benefit of others.

Thanks
