Air Canada Flights from Washington, D.C. to Manila

Air Canada on this route

Air Canada serves WAS–MNL through its hub network, usually with one connection. The nonstop flight time is about 17h 2m.

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.

Recorded lows on WAS–MNL start at $584 one-way. That figure comes from cached search data and moves with demand, so treat it as a benchmark for what a good price looks like rather than a guaranteed fare.

United Airlines operates hubs at one end of this route, so nonstop or single-connection service is usually available, along with American Airlines and Air Canada. Our agents can book any of them and compare fare classes side by side.

Covering 8,556 miles, the flight runs around 17h 2m nonstop. On sectors this long, one-stop itineraries through a hub are often priced well below the nonstop and add only a few hours; the agent will show both.

In our recent fare history for this pair, the lowest prices were recorded on American and Air Canada. That mix changes week to week, which is why an agent checks every carrier rather than assuming the cheapest one from last month.

When to fly

For long-haul travel, mid-January to March and the shoulder months of October and November usually bring the lowest fares; June through August and the December holidays cost the most.

Midweek travel almost always beats weekends on price here. If your dates are flexible by a day or two, tell the agent; shifting a Friday departure to Thursday or a Sunday return to Monday is the single most reliable way to cut the fare.

For international travel, booking two to five months ahead usually gets the best fares; inside three weeks, prices rise sharply. Peak-season travel in summer and over the December holidays should be booked as early as possible.
