Toronto is a Air Canada hub, so Air Canada typically offers several daily departures on YYZ–CHI, with nonstop service where demand supports it and connections through its other hubs otherwise. The nonstop flight time is about 1h 37m.
Fare classes available: Basic, Standard, Flex / Comfort / Latitude, Premium Economy / Business (Signature). Unlike the US carriers, Air Canada still charges change fees on Standard fares; Flex and higher fares reduce or waive them. Basic fares cannot be changed.
The lowest one-way fare we have on record for this route is $187. Fares like that usually show up on off-peak days and for travel booked a few weeks out; an agent can check whether a similar fare is available for your dates.
Because Delta Air Lines treats Chicago as a hub, this pairing tends to have frequent departures throughout the day. American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and Air Canada also compete here, which keeps fares in check.
The 435 miles between Toronto and Chicago works out to about 1h 37m in the air, the range where nonstops are common on busy days and connections through a hub fill in the rest. Ask the agent to compare both; the one-stop is sometimes cheaper by a wide margin.
From Canada, February and March school breaks and the December holidays are the expensive weeks; May, September, and October price lowest.
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday departures are usually the cheapest days on domestic routes; Friday and Sunday are the most expensive. Early-morning and late-evening flights are often priced below the midday departures.
For domestic travel, booking three to eight weeks ahead usually captures the best price. Inside two weeks, fares climb; more than four months out, airlines have not yet released their cheapest inventory.
Fares from a neighboring airport are sometimes far lower than the drive is long. Agents quote all of these on one call.
