As of now only 3 flights are operational between YVR and DEL during the week but flights will be offered every single day at the end of the month. There is increased demand for people to travel after a 2 year pandemic hiatus.

Air Canada cancelled direct flights earlier this year but they will be resuming those flights between Delhi and Vancouver during the fall season.
