What DUB to YYZ looks like
The DUB to YYZ sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Dublin DUB to Toronto YYZ is a long haul sector of 5,261 km by great circle, flown nonstop 5.3 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 5,261 km, 880 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 6h 50m.
Dublin DUB is a major hub in the network held here, 198 scheduled destinations and 462.1 departures a day. Toronto YYZ has 198 destinations and 603.3 departures a day.
Toronto is 5 hours behind of Dublin all year.
The pair sits between the Americas and Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 36 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on DUB to YYZ from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| DUB to YYZ | 5.29 | 37 | Aer Lingus, Air Canada, Air Transat, WestJet |
| YYZ to DUB | 5.14 | 36 | Aer Lingus, Air Canada, Air Transat, WestJet |
4 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
At 5.3 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 73 departures a week on DUB to YYZ, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 6h 50m block time on DUB to YYZ. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to DUB | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At DUB before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| DUB to YYZ in the air, estimated | 410 min | 11h 20m |
| Formalities at YYZ | 90 min | 12h 50m |
| Delivery run in Toronto | 45 min | 13h 35m |
| Door to door | 815 min | 13h 35m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for DUB to YYZ is 13h 35m.
A courier who leaves Dublin at 09:00 local is on the ground in Toronto at about 10:50 local and at the door by 13:05 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Toronto, the last useful departure from Dublin is around 13:55 local.
At 13h 35m the mission uses most of a sixteen hour duty day, which leaves no room for a delay before a rest at the far end becomes the honest answer.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 63 of them join DUB to YYZ.
| Connecting at | DUB to hub, flights a day | Hub to YYZ, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Halifax YHZ | 0.57 | 22.29 | 5,439 | 8h 39m |
| Montreal YUL | 0.57 | 30.86 | 5,277 | 8h 45m |
| Glasgow GLA | 15.43 | 1.57 | 5,581 | 8h 48m |
| Reykjavik KEF | 1.43 | 3.14 | 5,669 | 8h 56m |
| Boston BOS | 4.43 | 7.14 | 5,519 | 9h 05m |
| Edinburgh EDI | 24.14 | 2.29 | 5,681 | 9h 11m |
With 5.3 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
63 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Halifax YHZ, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 4 times a week.
Through YHZ the routing covers 5,439 km against the 5,261 km nonstop track and takes about 8h 39m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 49m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Montreal YUL at 8h 45m and Glasgow GLA at 8h 48m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Dublin, Belfast BFS is 137 km away by great circle and carries 47 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for DUB to YYZ in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
