        "answer": "Yes, Air Canada flies non‑stop from Delhi (DEL) to Toronto Pearson (YYZ) twice daily, every day of the week, with departures around 10:50 PM and 11:30 PM. It is the only airline operating this non‑stop route, and typical fares run around $1,185 round‑trip.",
        "methodology": "Airlines and weekly frequencies are compiled from our flight-schedule database, which combines published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), and observed flight operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). We count each operating carrier's scheduled weekly departures and the days it flies; where there is no nonstop service, connecting carriers are identified by linking scheduled nonstop segments through common hub airports. Where a median fare is shown for a carrier, it reflects the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. Carrier service and weekly frequencies are summarized from our flight-schedule database, which draws on published airline timetables, U.S. government schedule data, and observed operations from the EUROCONTROL/OpenSky Open Performance Data Initiative (OPDI). Where available, on-time and cancellation rates come from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) Airline On-Time Performance dataset, and typical fares from the U.S. DOT Airline Origin and Destination Survey (DB1B), a quarterly 10% sample of tickets sold.",

Canadian nationals need a visa to enter India; they must obtain an e-Visa or a regular visa before travel. Nationals of other countries should check both Canadian and Indian entry requirements based on their citizenship."
