the current information is too less for understanding but too much for getting worried. is it possible for you to please elaborate the issue and cause of denial for boarding?
Just if you can elaborate more...like if you have pr or Canadian citizenship? A did you book your tickets with air canada or Lufthansa? And if were asked any queries or for documents etc for transit through Germany? Of course baring covid test results..
Trying to seek more clarity as at below link it doesnot clearly say if i as Canadian citizen and oci can travel to yyz from bom through Frankfurt...

Alright so I traveled as a student. It was my first time landing as a student in Canada so I didn’t have any study permit on me. I booked through Air Canada however, it makes no difference whichever carrier you book from. (I
DEL->FRA: All normally required documents were checked, I didn’t have a hard copy for one or two docs for which they asked for a screenshot. I’ve traveled internationally as a tourist but the difference this time was that all immigration related questions were asked on the Lufthansa counter itself. All of my documents/soft copies were sent to secondary, so more or less my immigration check was done on Lufthansa counter, just had my passport stamped at Indian immigration(No questions asked) before entering airside.
At Frankfurt, they just checked my admission letter, covid test and boarding pass for the connecting flight. The process was very quick & the flight was mostly empty so almost every passenger got an extra unoccupied seat.
At Canada (Vancouver), I saw the smoothest ever immigration check of my life. Only questions asked were- Name of my school, place of quarantine. Definitely one thing the immigration officer pointed out was that my covid test should’ve been valid when I started the second leg of my journey. I took my test ~60 hrs before I boarded my flight from New Delhi. By the time I reached Frankfurt, it was already 72+ hours. So the immigration officer recommended me to public health officials and they gave me a green signal, they said it’s still a grey area so they were giving me a stamp. Honestly, the only suggestion for a connecting flight would be
1. Check for transit visas, if any (None required for Germany)
2. Ensure the window of you covid test is within 72 hrs before you board your second flight
hi All my brother booked a direct flight from Delhi to Toronto and to his destination to halifax. It was a direct flight AC. he did his immigration work in Toronto Pearson, but he only got a study permit of 6 month and he is enrolled in a 2 year course which started in Jan. does anyone have an idea on why did he just get 6 months on visa? officer told him he will need it to extend it but this is weird
hey can u tell me when u did ur immigration for study visa at Toronto Pearson, how long of your study course is and the study visa u received on it? my brother reached canada today he is enrolled in a 2 year course but only got a study permit of 6 months which is weird. officer told him that he will need to extend it later
Hey!! Yeah, I made to Canada.
I had my flight from BLR to YVR via FRA and YYZ. Had no issues during transit. Just like everyone else has mentioned above, I finished most of my immigration part at the Lufthansa baggage counter and just the stamping at the immigration counter. In Frankfurt, they checked my admission letter, covid test report and passport before the boarding and there was no transit issues. At YYZ which was my port of entry, they asked for my POE letter, quarantine plan and declaration form. The officer who issued my study permit just asked for the acceptance letter.
Upto my knowledge and experience you can transit through Frankfurt (there were also a few passengers who reached YYZ from BLR via FRA) but to be on the safer side, keep checking the Lufthansa website for any updates. Like few days before my journey, France closed their borders and cancelled all the transiting flights. So be careful and keep yourself updated.
