9 Affordable Travel Fares From Vancouver That You Can Book Now

Vacations are great this time of the year, especially when the air is chilly and all you want to do is get somewhere warm and sunny. While travelling is certainly pricey, that doesn’t mean you can’t be smart about where you go to. There are plenty of destinations that can help you save on costs while maximizing fun.

SkyScanner has recently released their 2026 Cheapest Destinations list, giving you the ability to see exactly what the most affordable travel fares are.

Cheapest By Month

Going month-by-month, SkyScanner has an interactive tool that allows you to see where the most affordable flights are for specific times of the year. For February, locations like Toronto, Yellowknife, and Faro in Portugal are all in the top 3 spots. SkyScanner also provides average roundtrip price costs, as well as the cheapest day to fly.

For every month of 2026, the number one most affordable location to fly to is within Canada. Whether that’s on the west or east coast, it’s very worth it for Canadians to travel domestically. And if you’re travelling while the Canada Strong Pass is active, then you can get even more discounts. For 2026, that’s during June 19 to September 7, and the pass gets you major discounts and freebies for certain tourist destinations within the country. This includes free admission with Parks Canada, camping discounts, and free and discounted travel with VIA Rail, among many other things.
