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.
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.
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.
