Check In & Immigration

Hi all

So if a couple of other flights go as planned then i will be looking at doing a multi city holiday to N America

I want to avoid BA if at all possible as their CW is **** but would consider 1st Class if price and times worked.

I was also thinking the YYZ immigration would be potentially less stress than flying into JFK, would I be correct in that?

At the moment it looks like my itinerary would be all be in Business Class with a mix of Air Canada & American Airlines.

LHR-YYZ (AC),YYZ-LGA (AC),LGA-MIA (AA),MIA-YYZ (AA),YYZ-LHR (AC)

I would be staying 3 days in each destination apart from the final leg back via YYZ which would just be an overnight.

I just have a few questions.

Would arriving at bag drop 2 hours for the Outbound and Inbound legs be sufficient, obviously i'd check in via the app 24 hours before.

How is immigration at YYZ when arriving on international flights, should i expect 1-2 hours to exit the airport and would it be the same when arriving back from MIA leg? Both flights arrive circa midday.

As US customs/immigration is done at YYZ for US bound flights 3 hour before departure would be best for that leg?

Sorry for probably stupid questions but I've only ever flown short hop EU flights so immigration formalities/queues etc are new to me :-)

Thanks in advance.
