Air India will operate non-stop flights between Delhi and Toronto from August 1, 2026, after removing the enroute fuel stop at Vienna and deploying its new Boeing 787-9 aircraft on the route. The move is expected to cut flying time by nearly three hours and restore daily services between India and Canada's largest city, the airline announced on Tuesday.
The airline said the change is subject to the availability of airspace. The Delhi-Toronto flight will now take around 17 hours instead of about 20 hours, which currently includes a fuel stop in Vienna. The return Toronto-Delhi service will continue to operate non-stop with a flight time of up to 16 hours.
