Transport Canada on Wednesday announced a ban on flight from India. In a statement on its website, the department said that Canada continues to take a risk-based and measured approach to re-opening the border while prioritising the health and safety of everyone in the country.
“As Canada prepares for the return of direct flights from India to Canada, Transport Canada is announcing an extension of the Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) that restricts all direct commercial and private passenger flights to Canada from India until September 26, 2021, at 23:59 EDT,” the statement from Transport Canada said.
Once the restriction on direct flights expires, travellers eligible to enter Canada will be able to board direct flights from India, it added.
