This year, unable to find seats on IST-YUL even right when the flights open. Sometimes flights to ORD or BOS but mostly short flights between IST and another european city and than AC to YUL but never the direct flight IST-YUL. Don't know about YYZ?
In my limited experience, direct between YYZ and IST is the hardest to find. Fairly easy out of the US e.g. ORD and BOS and not too bad for YUL.
2 years ago I booked IST-BOS-YYZ but eventually direct to YYZ became available. I recently booked YYZ-BOS-IST but I am hoping YYZ-IST becomes available.
