Add an extra destination after Toronto
A multicity ticket, Hong Kong to Toronto plus a later journey to or from a third city, sometimes prices below the plain one-way. You fly to Toronto; the second journey is a spare multicity you are free to drop, reschedule, or fit into a later trip. As with a spare return, the spare part is a whole journey on a later date, so nothing is skipped on the day and you can check a bag.

Fly to a cheaper city and stop in Toronto
A ticket to a city beyond Toronto, routed through it, sometimes costs less than the Toronto ticket itself. You get off at the layover and skip the last flight, a hidden city (or skiplagging). It is the one method here that leaves part of the ticket unflown, so travel with a carry-on, and it cannot be used on a round-trip: a missed segment cancels everything after it. Airlines tend to curb this practice, avoid doing it too often.

Combine your trip with other upcoming flights
If you have other trips coming up, try combining them with the Toronto one. Our multisearch engine searches several trips at once and finds ticket arrangements that cost less than the sum of their parts, such as nested or back-to-back tickets. The other trip can be to Toronto again or somewhere else entirely, and it can be months away.
Questions about saving on flights to Toronto
Can I buy a round-trip to Toronto and not fly the return?
Not that we have seen: across our searches from Hong Kong to Toronto, a round-trip never priced below the one-way, so no spare return to report on this route.
Is a hidden-city ticket safe on flights to Toronto?
Safe enough with two rules: carry-on only, since a checked bag travels to the ticketed destination, and not too often, since airlines curb it. On this route a hidden city ticket routed through Toronto priced below the Toronto fare on most searches, saving 15–45%.
Can I use a hidden-city ticket on a round trip to Toronto?
Not on a plain round-trip: skipping a segment cancels everything after it, so you would lose the return. What works is a hidden return, one multicity ticket from Hong Kong to Toronto and then from Toronto to a third city routed through Hong Kong, where you get off.
Is an open-jaw ticket cheaper than a one-way to Toronto?
Sometimes. A multicity ticket with a later journey to or from a third city, a spare multicity, can price below the plain one-way, and since the unused journey is on its own date you can check a bag. On this route it did on a good share of searches, saving 20–40%.
