    I'm going to do the same thing , except I'm going to California then flying up to Vancouver.
    I was advised not to arrive into the States with a one way ticket , even if you can demonstrate you have every intention to going to Canada afterwards. Arriving there like that will mark you as suspicious , and theres a good chance they'll question you further. Odds are that if you can prove you're going to Canada , can show your visa and have funds they'll let you through, but its not something I'd be prepared to risk personally.

    If I were you, I'd fly to Canada and get a bus/train down.

    hi we are looking at booking flights now and shopping around and just wondering what other people are coming up with and who is cheapest??

    Best I can do at the moment is 1800€ for 2 adults and infant flying end of June and back 21st December with edreams..... anyone else do any better? I know we are going/coming at bad times but cant be helped!!

    WITH MY RESEARCH ITS CHEAPER TO FLY THROUGH THE U.S BECAUSE OF THE HASSLE / US CUSTOMS - AND THE EDREAMS FLIGHT FOR 1800€ MEANS DUBLIN/NEWARK/TORONTO/SASKATOON - OUCH WITH A TODDLER! LOOKING ON BUDGETAIR.IE AND CAN GET DUBLIN/TORONTO/SASKATOON WITH FLIGHT TIME OF 12 HOURS FOR 2000 FOR 3 OF US

    IS ANYONE DOING ANY BETTER ON FLIGHTS - ITS PAINFUL!
    ANYWONE GOING THROUGH HEATHROW? BIG MONEY FOR FLIGHTS!

    Hi Clairefontaine said in her posts - I would stay well clear of the US. You need the ESTA visa to pass through.

    This is particularly important if you are flying to Canada on a work permit which you obtain at POE. US customs will most likely want to see all your documentation surrounding your Canadian permit and there is a risk of entry refusal.
