Best way to Travel to IIT Kanpur for MEMOCODE is to book a air ticket via New Delhi (DEL) to Lucknow (LKO) airport or take a train from New Delhi. Other possible ways to reach LKO airport is via Riyadh, Muscat, and Abu-Dhabi. There are direct flights from these middle eastern airports to LKO. But it is recommended that you fly via Delhi.
The conference will organize a few shuttles on the 17th and on the 20th to LKO airport for registrants to the conference. However, one can always go for a prepaid taxi service. The prepaid taxi counters are always inside the airport before you exit after collecting luggage. There will be a large number of solicitors for taxi service. Under no circumstances you should take taxi services from such solicitors at any airport or train station in India. Always use prepaid counter insider to pay, get a receipt, and then come out to find the pre-paid taxi lines. The shuttle service schedule will be posted a few days before the conference on the conference website.
Recommended: Take a Flight to Lucknow (LKO) from New Delhi (DEL) and then take a 1.5 hours long Taxi Ride (about 1500 Rs ~ 25 USD) or take a shuttle organized by the conference at fixed times from LKO Airport to IIT Kanpur.
Not so Recommended but Possible: Take a Train from New Delhi Station (NDLS) to Kanpur Central Station (CNB). Recommended: Book First class or Executive Class while booking the train seats. Take a taxi from CNB to IIT Kanpur (about 300-500 Rs ~ 5 USD) or take a shuttle organized by the conference.
