- Washington, D.C., from $233

Most large carriers fly to Toronto's largest air-hub, Pearson International Airport, an expensive, 40-minute cab ride away from downtown. Porter Airlines conveniently flies to Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, set upon an island just off the mainland. After a free five-minute ferry ride, Toronto's city-center is a quick walk or cab ride away.
Porter Airlines earned its 4-star-ranking due to its impeccable on-board flight experience. Passengers are treated to a premium beverage and snack selection, which includes complimentary soda, wine and beer, a far cry from the typical soda and peanuts service. At the Billy Bishop airport lounge, fliers may connect to free Wi-Fi, then help themselves to free coffee, espresso, juices, sodas, snacks, and breakfast pastries while waiting for departing and connecting flights.
After the long, cold winter, Toronto is vibrant and bustling throughout spring and summer, making for a great long-weekend destination. The season's warm, sunny weather, reaching temperatures well into the 80s during mid-summer, provides an ideal climate for the hundreds of festivals and events that take place across the city. From the Toronto International Circus Festival, to the Toronto Wine and Spirit Festival, to Toronto Gay Pride, one of the largest pride celebrations in North America, to the Toronto International Dragon Boat Race, Toronto's wide range of festivities cater to all interests.
