Stopover Packages from Canada

Break your long flight to Asia, India, the Middle East or Africa with a city stopover — some free, some from a few dollars a night.

Stopover Packages from Canada

A long flight to India, Asia, the Middle East or Africa almost always connects through a hub city — so why rush through it? A stopover turns that connection into a second holiday: one or two nights in Doha, Dubai, Istanbul, Hong Kong or Singapore on your way to your main destination, often for little or no extra airfare. Fond Travels, an IATA-accredited Calgary travel agency, adds the hotel, transfers and a short city tour to your flight, all in one price in Canadian Dollars.

Call +1 (587) 287 1191 when you book your flights and we will build the stopover in — the best city for your route, the right hotel, and the paperwork sorted, 8 AM–9 PM, 7 days.

Popular stopovers from Canada

  • Doha stopover — a quick, great-value break on Qatar Airways routes to India and Asia, with hotels from just a few dollars a night.
  • Istanbul stopover — a free hotel for Canadian travellers on qualifying Turkish Airlines layovers, plus free guided city tours.

  • Singapore & Bangkok — classic Southeast Asian hubs for an East-bound break.

Why add a stopover

  • Two destinations, one trip — see a world-class city on the way, often for little extra airfare.
  • Break the journey — sleep flat in a hotel and arrive at your main destination rested, not jet-lagged.
  • Great value — some airline stopover programs include the hotel free; others cost only a few dollars a night.
  • One CAD booking — flight, hotel, transfers and a short tour arranged together, no loose ends.

Stopover packages — FAQs

Frequently asked questions

A layover is just the connection time between flights. A stopover is a deliberate overnight (or multi-night) break in a connecting city — so you get a second destination on one trip, often for little or no extra airfare. We add the hotel, transfers and a short tour to your flight. Call +1 (587) 287 1191 and we will build it in.

Often very little, and sometimes nothing. Many airlines price a connection through their hub the same whether you stop for two hours or two nights, so you only pay for the hotel and any tours — and a few airlines include the hotel free. We compare the routings and tell you the real difference in CAD.

It depends where you are flying. For India and South Asia, Doha, Dubai, Istanbul and Abu Dhabi line up perfectly. For East and Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Singapore and Bangkok. For Europe and Africa, Istanbul and the Gulf hubs. We match the stopover to your main destination.
