Cathay Pacific has dropped the price of their April 2024 flights from Toronto to Vietnam and Thailand down to between $826 and $950 CAD roundtrip including taxes.
The flights have 1 stop each way, in Hong Kong.
Great prices to SE Asia have been non-existent for years.
April is one of the best months to visit either country.
You can also extend the layover in Hong Kong and make it a 2-in-1 trip, for $889 CAD roundtrip.
And if you really want to get creative, you can fly into Thailand, and then fly from Vietnam to Hong Kong, and back to Toronto - all for $903 CAD roundtrip
UPDATE @ 2:30 PM EST - Dates are definitely disappearing quickly. Starting to see prices jump when selecting dates on Google Flights which is an indicator that dates are selling out. More likely to find dates that are still cheap in May than in April now.
UPDATE - As of 3 PM EST I believe these may be the only working dates left:
May 14, 17, 18, 20, 21 to May 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, Jun 2.
Availability for travel

How to find and book these flights

You can also find dates in May 2024 (and even into the beginning of June), but Google Flights can't browse dates that far way.

Kayak - third week of April to first week of May
