Hello everyone. I am planning on travelling from India to Toronto in September end and I wanted to ask about a particular route that I think I havent seen any posts about. The Mum-Frankfurt-Toronto route with 6 hrs layover has enough time to get a covid RTPCR test at their Centogene facility in their terminal. I am wondering if anyone has taken this path and what difficulties did you face if any. To ease out the questions, the testing facility is in the transit zone and you do have a option of selecting the quickest service which will give you results back in 35 mins.
What I have been hearing from students who have been travelling is that, it is the indian authorities who might or might not allow to embark from India itself if you do not have a hotel reservation in a third country. Wouldn't getting a test from the airport count as a test from a third country? This option is way cheaper and feasible than staying at a hotel for a couple of days. It's just that I am not clear if the indian authorities would allow for this.
