  • How long is the flight to Chennai?

    Numerous Canadian cities, including Montreal, Mississauga, and Ottawa, serve as departure points when traveling from Canada to Chennai, India. If you start your journey to Chennai in Montreal, your flight may take 21h 55h if it has a single stop and 29h 25min if there are two stops. Taking Chennai flight deals from Mississauga reduces the flight duration to 19h 20min. If the origin of the flight is Ottawa, you may fly for a minimum of 27h 35min and a maximum of 51h depending on the layovers present in your journey. While most flight deals have a single stop, others may have three layovers with self-transfer options.

  • Where can you get nonstop flights to Chennai from?

    Currently, there are no nonstop flight deals from any Canadian city to Chennai International Airport, Chennai. The ideal option is to depart from Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport, where single-stop flights via Qatar Airways exist, with a layover in Doha. Two-stop flights are available in airports like Victoria International Airport, Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport, Calgary International Airport, and Toronto Pearson International Airport. Consequently, the airlines that have the flight deals are Air Canada, Etihad, Qatar Airways, Emirates, Air India, Oman Air, Air France, Turkish Airlines, and Lufthansa. You may expect the first stop in a European city, like Frankfurt, or Asian cities like Muscat, Dubai, Doha, or Abu Dhabi. Most final layovers are in Indian urban centers, including Mumbai and New Delhi. To avoid a spike in the transport cost, you may take two or three-stopover flight deals that allow self-transfer.

  • How do you get from the Chennai airport to the city center?

    Chennai International Airport presents you with numerous transfer options when traveling to the city center. If affordability is among your key considerations, the train is a good option. However, you may have to walk to Tirusulam Station, a short distance from the airport. Buses are also comparatively inexpensive when looking to get to Downtown Chennai. The Metropolitan Transport Corporation (MTC) bus terminal is onsite in the airport. If you prefer to cover the airport and city center distance via taxi, you can board one at the Arrivals area. Most taxis are prepaid, meaning you need to purchase a ticket at the booths near the arrivals area before the journey starts. Two ridesharing apps also allow you to order rides to Downtown Chennai: Uber and Ola.

  • What are some things to do in Chennai?

    Among the attractions that make Chennai worth visiting include large beaches, cultural temples, and great south Indian delicacies. We are all for starting your tour at Marina Beach, a great outdoor spot for relaxing and sightseeing. For serenity in the bustling city, be sure to visit Thalankuppam Pier, where soothing waves offer a sense of calm. Not to miss out on the city's rich heritage, make a point of seeing Kapaleeshwarar Temple and enjoy the artful façade of the ancient structure. If you have a young traveler with you, MGM Dizee World will provide a great place for play with its train rides and waterpark sports.

  • Do I need a passport or visa to fly to Chennai?

    Flying from Canada to Chennai requires Canadian citizens to possess both a valid passport and visa. India, however, accepts eVisas for stays less than 60 days. It is not mandatory to have a return ticket.

  • What does MAA mean?

    Chennai Airport is MAA. This code is created by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and airlines use IATA codes to identify the departing or arrival airports in the flight routes they service.

  • What airport do you fly into for flights to Chennai?

    Booking a flight to Chennai (MAA) is your only option if you intend on flying to Chennai. It is only a 16.5 km journey from Chennai to Chennai’s city centre.
