Cathay pacific would have the nicest deals!

SANSAN,

Any Chinese Airline would be cheapest like Cathy pacific or East China but I wont recommend...paying bit extra i advisable due to quality of service.

In terms of service quality, I would say Cathay Pacific is better than China Eastern airlines. Marchie, which airline do you suggest then?

Since there are not direct flights to BC like Toronto from UAE.
Its preferred, they go by British Airline with code sharing with American Airline..
Only that these flights land in evenings.
Hope this helps.

Hi cool,
yes code sharing...but its very strange that when you try to book directly online they are much expensive....as compared to buy to third party on the website.

Hi Samoo,
Coqiultum is a very happening pace and its suburban of main Vancouver city. Its definitely the right choice for BC immigrants.
All the best...

For driving license and its rules, check icbc.com

For schools, you might to check the school rankings with fraser institute (there are no ranking for middle schools).

I rather go by Cathay Pacific with code sharing with American Airlines or fly by Air Canada.
