Now, you can finally travel on a Direct Flights From Canada to India

Most people are already aware of the massive news in regards to booking a cheap India flight from Canada.  The federal government has finally changed the restrictions banning direct flights from India to Canada.  While there are still complex and difficult rules in place, you can finally travel on a direct flight from Canada to India or vice versa!

To return on the direct flight, the Canadian government has worked with one testing company at the Delhi airport that must do all the COVID testing within 18 hours of your departure time.  The standard 72-hour rule does not apply for the India direct flight.  Unfortunately, if you do not want to travel on the direct service on Air Canada or Air India, you must use the old rules of getting a negative COVID test in a 3rd country.  While the rules in place are not perfect, we have seen a massive increase in the number of bookings as people finally feel confident that they can travel between Canada and India again.  For those of you looking to secure a cheap India flight this year now is the time to book.

For clients looking to buy a cheap flight to India, there are a few great options.  While we don’t have as many flights as we have had in past years, most airlines are offering very low prices to Delhi.  If you want to purchase a flight to India from Toronto many clients are after the Air Canada direct flight, but their prices are very high compared to the competition.  Most travellers are currently buying flights on Air India as their direct flight has a low price, and because it is non-stop. There is no hassle of having to be tested in 3rd country on your return.

If you are flexible on your dates, you can find a price for only $1,099 from Toronto to Delhi.  If you are a committed Air Canada flyer the price you will be paying will be much higher if you are returning in early in 2022 with their lowest fares coming in at $2,070.   On Air Canada, some customers are choosing to wait as they feel that the price will come down, which may be the case as our national airline may not be able to fill the plane at such a high price.

For flights from Vancouver to India, the options are very similar with Air India taking the majority of the business since the ban has been dropped.  Flights on Air India are available from only $1,059 on select dates with Air Canada once again asking for a higher fare at almost $2,000.  For anyone looking to buy a cheap India flight from Vancouver, Air India is currently your best option.

If you are planning a shorter trip to India and are planning to return in December, you can find good fares on the Air Canada, Vancouver to Delhi direct service from only $1,525.  The seats at this price are selling out very quickly so it makes sense to your ticket today if you want to get a cheap flight to India this year.  Overall, the past few days have been very positive if you want to travel between India and Canada.

The removal of the flight ban on direct flights has finally allowed people to get back to Canada from India without the terrible expense, and hassle of travelling through a 3rd country.  We have seen a significant increase in demand with higher sales than was seen in 2019.

While this is good news for those who have already secured cheap India flights, for those who haven’t decided they need to move quickly!  Every day we are seeing a large number of inquiries and bookings, and all of this will push prices up as airlines realize there is finally money to be made on flights between Canada and India.

Regardless of whether you want to book the direct flights from Air Canada or Air India or one of the other indirect routes. Now is the time to secure your cheap flight to India before prices go up!
