| When | What happens | Our advice |
|---|---|---|
| All year | A business route first: weekday morning departures and evening returns are the busiest. | Same-day returns are common; tell us both times when you ask for a quote. |
| Winter | Snow and de-icing in Toronto and New York can add time on the ground. | Leave some slack in the schedule for early meetings. |
