Flights between Quebec City (YQB) and Halifax (YHZ) change by season. An old advertised fare or route announcement is not reliable evidence that a nonstop flight still operates, so start with live airport and airline schedules.
Is there a nonstop flight?
Nonstop service may appear seasonally or operate only on selected days. Check the YQB destinations page and the Halifax airport nonstop-flight page, then confirm the exact date with the operating airline.
If no nonstop is available
The usual alternative is a one-stop itinerary through Montreal or Toronto. Compare total elapsed time, not just the first flight. A lower fare can become less attractive once the connection, baggage rules and airport time are included.

When to book
There is no permanent “best” fare. Search your exact dates, compare a day or two on either side, and check whether a nonstop is worth paying more for. During summer, holidays and major events, useful flight times can disappear before the lowest headline fares do.
