Airport facts

YYZ carries 4 routes and 1 airlines in our catalogue, totalling 47 weekly departures. Aeropuerto Internacional Pearson (ICAO CYYZ) serves Toronto, Canada, in the America/Toronto zone (UTC−4 in July). Its coordinates (43.6772, -79.6306) are the basis of every distance on this site.

• IATA: YYZ
• ICAO: CYYZ
• City: Toronto
• Country: Canadá
• Time zone: America/Toronto
• Coordinates: 43.6772, -79.6306
• Airlines at the airport: 1

Time difference against Mexico City. In July, Toronto runs 2 h ahead of the Mexican capital (UTC−4 versus UTC−6). In January the airport operates on UTC−5, so the gap is not constant across the year: daylight saving shifts it. This is the calculation that decides whether a pre-booked ground connection still works.

Coordinates, and why we publish them. 43.6772, -79.6306 is the position from which every great-circle distance on this site is computed, including the ones that set the EU261 compensation band. It is not the distance the aircraft flies — that follows airways and diversions — but the geodesic measure the regulations use. Publishing it lets anyone recompute the figures on these pages.

What each code is for. The IATA code (YYZ) is what the bag tag and the ticket use; the ICAO code (CYYZ) is what flight plans, NOTAMs and flight trackers use. To follow the inbound aircraft that will become your flight, ICAO is the one that returns reliable results. And if YYZ is not printed on your bag tag, the bag was not checked through to here — worth catching at the counter.

Alliances present at YYZ: SkyTeam. It matters for two concrete things: where miles credit, and what happens when something breaks. Within one alliance, rebooking onto another member is usually provided for; between carriers with no agreement it does not exist and depends on goodwill at the desk. If you buy two legs on operators from different alliances, treat them as two separate trips.

How this list is built. These are the airlines appearing in catalogued routes that touch YYZ, not the airport’s full directory: a carrier that flies here but not on a pair we cover does not appear. The type — full-service or low-cost — and the allowance come from our own record for each carrier, and where the datum does not exist we say so rather than filling it with a plausible number.

Routes to Toronto (YYZ)

Our catalogue lists 4 routes into YYZ, totalling 47 weekly departures and spanning 2,605 to 3,382 km. The busiest is CUN-YYZ at ~28 flights a week; 4 of them carry a cached fare, spread across 2 audience profiles. Every row in this section comes from that same corridor catalogue, not from a live search.

What traffic YYZ moves. By audience profile, the routes catalogued here split as: Mexico-Europe corridor (VFR and Camino) (3), Caribbean leisure corridor (1). That mix explains the airport’s seasonality: family corridors spike in December and Holy Week, leisure ones follow the holiday calendar, and regional ones stay flatter across the year.

Not all of these routes fly daily. The thinnest on the list is MTY-YYZ at ~2 weekly departures — under one a day. On a pair like that a cancellation is not resolved in hours: the next seat may be two or three days out, which is why it is worth avoiding the last flight before a fixed commitment.

Fare seasonality

3 routes at YYZ carry a monthly minimum-fare breakdown. Between the cheapest and priciest months observed the gap reaches 34% on the widest route, which shows how much the date matters against the choice of airline at this airport.

Lowest detected fare by month on routes with data, in pesos (MXN). The cheapest versus dearest month helps you time the purchase:

The three peaks of the Mexican calendar. December, Holy Week and summer concentrate family and leisure demand at once, and in those windows price stops responding to normal lead time: cheap buckets sell out earlier and flexible fares go at a premium. Outside them, the usual pattern rewards buying 4 to 8 weeks ahead and travelling midweek. That window is a general Mexican-market rule of thumb, not a measurement of this route: our series records observed prices, not the lead time at which each ticket was bought.

Seasonality does not transfer between airports. Every pair has its own calendar: a labour corridor flattens in summer while a beach one spikes, and YYZ can host both. Before assuming ‘August is expensive’, read the row for your specific route; the airport average blends demands that move in opposite directions.

Connection tips

YYZ concentrates 47 catalogued weekly departures across 1 airlines, in the America/Toronto zone. That density is what decides how much slack to leave on a connection: the more of its own services the airline runs here, the more same-day rebooking options exist.

Aeropuerto Internacional Pearson runs on the America/Toronto time zone; factor the offset from your origin city when planning connections and transfers. The busiest route at YYZ is CUN-YYZ (~28 flights a week). The lowest fare detected at this airport is $3,572 MXN on the MEX-YYZ route. Book 4–8 weeks ahead for the busiest routes to/from Toronto; fares climb in December, Holy Week and summer. Each route guide above shows month-by-month seasonality and the lowest peso fare. That window is a general Mexican-market rule of thumb, not a measurement of this route: our series records observed prices, not the lead time at which each ticket was bought.

The cheap connection that loses the checked bag. Two separate tickets are not one itinerary: there is no interline agreement, the bag is not checked through to the final destination, and if the first flight lands late the second airline owes you nothing — it sold a different flight. The apparent saving evaporates the moment you buy a same-day replacement. On a single ticket, rebooking and the bag transfer are the carrier’s problem, not yours.

Other airports in the same country in our catalogue, with the number of catalogued routes — useful if you need an alternative gateway:

Great-circle distance is not the transfer. The figures in the table are geodesic, computed from each airport’s coordinates; the real journey depends on whether road, rail or a domestic flight exists, and on what they cost. An airport 300 km away can be more accessible than one at 120 km if the first has a direct motorway and the second does not. Use them to rule out, not to plan.

Why the route counts look small. The routes column counts the pairs catalogued on this site — those relevant to the Mexican traveller — in both directions, not the airport’s total destination list. A large airport with little Mexican traffic shows few routes here, and that says more about our editorial coverage than about the size of the terminal.
