The most competitive fares on the Ottawa–Amritsar route appear during the spring (March to May) and autumn (October to November), which avoids both the Indian subcontinent summer heat and peak holiday travel surcharges.

Which airports are used for flights from Ottawa to Amritsar?

Is $1470 CAD a competitive price for this route?

Amritsar Travel Guide for Canadian Flyers

The Golden Temple, the Wagah border ceremony and authentic Punjabi cuisine make Amritsar one of our most-requested routes.

Visa & entry for Canadians

Canadian visitors generally require an Indian e-Visa or tourist visa; OCI cardholders use their OCI. We help Punjab-bound families coordinate tickets with visa timelines.

Best time to fly

November to March is the best weather and the peak travel and wedding season for the Punjab community, so fares climb — early booking is essential. Summer fares are lower.

Where to stay & airports

Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International (ATQ) puts you minutes from the Golden Temple and central Amritsar; some itineraries connect via Delhi (DEL).

Baggage tip

Families travelling to Punjab often need extra baggage; confirming allowances and excess-bag pricing by phone is exactly where we save you money.

Entry requirements and baggage rules change often — confirm current details with our agents or the official authorities before you travel.
