Air Canada will not be operating flights between Delhi and Vancouver, starting from June 3 till September 8, 2022. The Canadian flag carrier recently announced the same and stated that the reason for the said suspension is the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the flights going to Canada's densest city are required to use the Russian and Ukrainian airspace.
Referring to this, Arun Pandeya, Country Head and General Manager - Indian Subcontinent at Air Canada confirmed the development and added that the airline will be deploying more flights on other routes flying to the country. He further added that the flight suspension will not be affecting Indian travellers majorly, as they will be accommodating the passengers, with existing booking, on other flights without any additional fee. He said, “If you purchased your ticket directly from a travel agency or an online travel website, please contact them directly for your new itinerary information.”
