Cached-fare history: across 4 months, Sep is the cheapest for YTO → OTP. Best time to be there: May–Jun · Sep–Oct.
Fares bottom out in September around $604 and peak in December near $801 — a $197 spread across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes 2 stops and takes about 11.5 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under WestJet, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $604 for 7,750 km each way, that works out to about $39 per 1,000 km flown. That is below the $44 typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 11 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Bucharest, this fare ranks 2nd — 5% above the $573 from Seoul. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 36 routes of similar length we watch out of Toronto, where the middle fare is $604.

Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Sep comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Bucharest are May–Jun · Sep–Oct — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book YTO → Bucharest?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Sep comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Toronto to Bucharest?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under WestJet. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
