Cheap flights to Vancouver from $639

Peak season: Picturesque and vibrant, travellers love taking cheap flights to Vancouver one of North America’s greenest cities. The largest urban green space is 404 hectare Stanley Park right in its backyard featuring parkland, gardens and beaches. The park is a local and tourist favourite for hiking, cycling, picnics and swimming especially in the summer months which is when most visitors arrive on flights to Vancouver. Despite its clean, green appeal (it appears at the top of many global liveability indexes) Vancouver is a city of high­rise buildings. Downtown Vancouver is dominated by gleaming towers clad in green glass and it has many diverse, bustling neighbourhoods including Chinatown, the Punjabi Market Indian district, gay-­friendly Davie Village and bohemian Commercial Drive. Summer is also the best season for festivals when the city plays host to festivals featuring jazz, folk music, fireworks, gay pride, outdoor concerts and more. Canada Day (1 July) is also a good excuse for a huge party and Vancouver won’t disappoint in that respect. Off season: Unlike other Canadian cities Vancouver doesn’t receive much snow in the winter though it does rain a lot, so a rainproof jacket is essential. The cheapest flights to Vancouver can be found during the winter, a plus for skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts who head to the mountain mainly in January and February.
