Dear Khalid....Thank you and appreciate your inputs bro.... I have already tried safehomestay and sunny newcomer but unfortunately both of them are fully booked until the end of this year. :-[ I had e-mailed them 3 months in advance but they were still fully booked until the end of this year. I am sure they have been booked in advance as they are quite cheap and offer reasonable service as well...

I tried Studio 6 as you had mentioned and quite a few others motels as well but even Studio 6 is around $75 to $80 per day. Regarding the flights PIA and Emirates both are good options but both of them are expensive if you take direct flights...PIA only offers 5kg more per passenger compared to the majority of other airlines....Most of the Airlines offer 23 kgs (2 pieces) per passenger and PIA offers 28 kgs (2 pieces) per passenger. So far the best option I am able to find is Emirates Airline from Dubai to London and American Airlines (Operated by British Airways) from London to Toronto for AED 3,074 per passenger 1 way. Tried skyscanner as well mate.... ...

Basements are quite cheaper than apartments, ranging from $700 to $900/month!

Good to know about your plan.
I am also considering this option of staying there for a month, get the PR card and come back to Pak. Will move permanently after some time. But I am still working out the details of such move. It will be convenient to discuss it personally, if you consider it convenient. If so, plz give your contact info through a PM.
regards,

me too have the same plans ..need to coordinate with u ..plz PM me yur contact no

Thanks

Hi,

We're planning to land last days of Jan 2013 or 1st days Feb at the latest. We were thinking of Mississauga at the beginning but checking the rent prices and the cost of travel to Toronto we though there is no much difference at leaving closer to T with more transport options and less commuting time and also more jobs in T and in Mississauga. We're now looking at Etobicoke and York.

Regarding flights the best I have found is Airtransat. Temporary accommodation is proving a bit more difficult as most of the apartments are rented unfurnished and min. 1 year lease.
Those who are in the same situation may like to have a look at KIJIJI website: www.kijiji.ca the real state link will give the option to look for temporary accommodation. It's mostly suites (they are expensive but really nice and chic, you're looking at about CAN$ 3000 per month all inclusive) and people who are subletting (that's the cheaper option), they normally come fully furnished. I've also heard about Craiglist but have not checked it yet....
Good luck to everyone on their landing!!!!
