How to find and book this deal

1. These can be a little tricky to find. There are two strategies I would recommend:

a) Search for these flights at Momondo and click through to Flighthub or Expedia.

Sometimes you need to click on 'Best' after your Momondo search completes, to find these flights.

Otherwise, you may see flights that are slightly cheaper, but way, way longer.

or

b) Search for these flights at Skyscanner and click through to Nanak Flights or Flighthub.

Sometimes you need to click on 'More' under the Select button, after your Skyscanner search completes, to see Nanak Flights as the booking site.

With either method, the key is to look for the flights where the stopover length in Shanghai is somewhere between 3 to 6 hours each way.

2. After going to Momondo or Skyscanner, search for a flight from Toronto to...

Manila, Philippines (MNL)
or
Cebu, Philippines (CEB)

Use one of the following date combinations:

Try looking for flights that are operated by ANA (All Nippon Airways) - a great airline!
