Toronto → Delhi
Near a warning area, but does not cross it
Route assessed 12d ago
Better structural balance than Air India direct. Turkish Airlines provides YYZ–IST service, and IST–DEL avoids the Gulf advisory zone. The hub break at Istanbul creates a reroute decision point before committing to the second leg.
Very few backup paths if this route is disrupted
IST–DEL second leg routes through Central Asian airspace south of the advisory zone — peripheral level-1 exposure. Turkish Airlines YYZ–IST: verify current schedule. Minimum connection time at IST is typically 1.5–2 hours.

Ranks above Air India direct (better structural resilience) and above Dubai (avoids Gulf advisory zone). Hub dependency at IST adds connection risk offset by the corridor flexibility the hub break provides.
