The total roundtrip from Toronto to Quebec was $600+. Am I looking at the wrong place? I did searches on expedia.com and orbitz.com. Is there somewhere else I should look at? Is there a Canadian version of "Southwest"?


did you try AC's jazz:

If you have spare time, I would take the train. I find that traveling on VIA rail is a more pleasant experience than traveling on Amtrak. And why not stop in Montreal for lunch? The main train station in Montreal, Gare Centrale is cleaner and has better dining options than any of the gares in Paris.

Excellent baked goods:
