Air India has launched a new seasonal non-stop flight service between Mumbai and Toronto, providing a direct connection between India’s financial capital and Canada’s largest city. According to an Air India news release, the route commenced on October 25, 2026, and is scheduled to operate three times a week until March 26, 2027.
The new service operates on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays using Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. According to Live From A Lounge, the flight schedule is as follows:
Live From A Lounge notes that the return service, AI192, includes a technical stop in Rome. The Boeing 777-300ER aircraft features upgraded cabin interiors inherited from Etihad. The aircraft configuration includes eight First Class suites with privacy doors, 40 Business Class seats that convert into fully flat beds, and 280 Economy Class seats. Air India is also offering on-board Wi-Fi connectivity on these aircraft.
The launch of the Mumbai–Toronto route is part of a broader expansion of Air India’s network in Canada. The airline plans to operate 20 flights a week across its India–Canada network during the Winter 2026-27 season. This total includes:
Air India has introduced the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner on the Delhi–Toronto route, which features new-generation cabin products including Premium Economy. Of the 10 weekly flights scheduled between Delhi and Toronto for the Winter 2026-27 season, seven are operated by the Boeing 787-9, while the remaining three initially use Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. The airline expects the remaining three flights to transition to the Dreamliner from January 2027.
Air India expects the expansion to increase its premium seat capacity to Toronto by 71% this winter. The airline estimates that the expansion will add approximately 4,400 seats per month between India and Canada.
According to Live From A Lounge, the Mumbai–Toronto route provides an option for travelers from western and southern India—including cities such as Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Kochi—to reach Toronto without connecting through Delhi or another international hub. The service is intended to serve business travelers, students, and families, providing a non-stop option for the Indian diaspora in Toronto.
