What you're owed
Leaving Heathrow
£520each under UK law
Leaving Toronto
£520each under UK law
Toronto is outside the UK and EU, so coming back this only applies if a UK or EU airline operated the flight.
Heathrow to Toronto is 5,707 km, which fixes the figure: £520 each leaving Heathrow, and the same £520 each coming back if a UK or EU airline operated the flight. It is per person, so four of you is £2,080.
How Air Canada does on this route
Better or worse than the route itself?
Everyone flying Heathrow to Toronto hits the same airspace and the same two airports, so the honest question is not whether the route is busy, it is whether this airline handles it better or worse than the others on it.
Against its own network it is 1.7 points worse than usual: Air Canada lands on time 74.5% of the time across all 6,537 of its UK flights a year, against 72.8% here.
In money terms: about 3 flights a month on this route land 3 hours or more late, which is about 1 flight in 65. Everyone on board one of those is owed £520 each, so a full aircraft is a five-figure bill for Air Canada.
Other airlines on this route
Same two airports, same 5,707 km, same £520.
