Not reallly.

it’s been a long time since I’ve flown international froM YYZ, I’m typically Transborder, but CATSA (security) way more of a PITA than TSA - not even close. If you are willing to deal with that relatively minor inconvenience, all else being equal, shouldn’t be too much different. I assume your flight would be EgyptAir, which I definitely can’t speak to as I have no experience there.

also, on return, note, that baggage delivery is typically..umm..slow…across carriers IME. I’ve waited 90+ minutes at times (I wish I couldn’t say more than once, but that’s the truth). So dont plan for a quick exit on arrival
