Vaccinated with Covishield, to be specific.
You may get two first doses with 4 weeks gap and merge them in cowin!

Yes it is long,it will cost 170,000 to 175,000 Indian Rupees in Basic Economy without checked in baggage (If only booked through 'SkyScanner' app or website)

3 Separate bookings are required

With baggage,it should cost 200,000 to 250,000 Indian Rupees with checked in baggage

Calling the airline after booking to add checked in baggage is better as it is cheaper to do so

Brief itinerary
1:30 am Indian Time direct flight from Delhi to Moscow(Aeroflot)(6 hrs 50 mins)
9:50 am Russian Time direct flight from Moscow to London(Aeroflot)(4 hrs 15 mins)

2:05 pm London Time direct flight from London Heathrow to Toronto (Air Canada)(7 hrs 40 mins)
OR
5:05 pm London Time direct flight from London Heathrow to Toronto (British Airways)(7 hrs 50 mins)
OR
2:10 pm London Time direct flight from London Heathrow to Vancouver (Air Canada)(9 hrs 20 mins)

Total Travel time:About 30 hrs and no hotel stay required.

Lots of flying without proper sleep & extremely stressful,but possible to start the journey from India and arrive in Canada on the same date.

Not recommended for someone with pre-existing medical conditions which might get worse because of long hours of flying.
But when and where will you get your covid-19 test from? We still need to get test conducted from third country that we depart the last from.

The above mentioned route sounds like a plan from hell ;). Are London borders even open? With this much money, there are many shorter options available.

Route is faster but , Is there any arrangement on London Airport for Covid test ?

I am planning to book flight for my wife during MID-END of August. She is fully vaccinated.

Anyone interested in making WhatsApp group for flight discussion ?

Read closely. If you are an Indian citizen with no UK visa and just Canadian study permit. You are not eligible. Please, confirm and verify your information before adding on public forum.
This page does not give the entire information.It talks about entering the UK and requirements.

On matters related to transit, Indian citizens with Canadian visa are allowed visa free transit through UK on way to Canada: https://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa/y/india/transit/somewhere_else/no

Yes those with "you have a permanent residence permit issued by Canada on or after 28 June 2002" .
You don’t need a visa if you have one of the following:

  • a visa for Canada, New Zealand, Australia or the USA (this can be used for travel to any country)
