Bengaluru to Amritsar is one of the longer domestic non-stops in India. IndiGo runs the bulk of the frequencies, with Akasa Air also flying the route. Between them you get roughly 6–8 non-stop departures a day.
For 2026, ignore older listings showing Go First, Jet Airways or Vistara — Go First and Jet Airways are defunct, and Vistara has merged into Air India. Air India itself sells the route mainly as a connection rather than a non-stop, so verify the segments before booking if you want a true direct.
The flying distance is around 2,100 km — a long haul by domestic standards. A non-stop takes about 3h to 3h 10m gate-to-gate. Because of the distance, the difference between a non-stop and a one-stop connection is large: connections via Delhi can push total travel to 6 hours or more, so the non-stop is well worth it on this route.
IndiGo flies A320neo/A321neo equipment; Akasa uses the Boeing 737 MAX 8.
On a long, lower-frequency route like this, booking 4–8 weeks ahead is wise. We do not quote rupee figures — fares move daily — but the demand pattern below is reliable. Amritsar sees strong pilgrim and festival traffic that lifts fares around key dates.
| Period | Demand | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Apr–Jun (summer) | Moderate–High | Punjab heat; holiday travel |
| Jul–Sep (monsoon) | Moderate | Softer fares; Bengaluru rain delays possible |
| Oct–Nov (festive) | Very high | Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas peak |
| Dec–Jan (winter) | High | Pleasant Amritsar weather; Delhi-area fog can knock-on |
| Feb–Mar | Moderate | Often the best-value window |
On a long sector, fare differences between carriers can be sizeable:
An early-morning departure from Bengaluru gets you into Amritsar by early afternoon with the day still ahead. Bengaluru afternoon thunderstorms in the monsoon can delay later departures, so a morning slot is the safer bet in Jul–Sep. In December and January, north-Indian fog around the Punjab/Delhi belt can affect Amritsar arrivals, particularly early-morning ones — a midday arrival is generally more reliable.
Business travellers: the morning non-stop maximises usable time at destination on a route this long; pick a fare with seat selection if you want a forward aisle.
Families and pilgrims: many travel to Amritsar for the Golden Temple. A daytime non-stop is far gentler than a long Delhi connection — book seats together and carry water for the children on a 3-hour flight.
Students: the cabin-bag-only fares booked weeks ahead are the cheapest honest option. There is no genuine student discount on this route, so do not pay for one that is advertised. Carry your government photo ID.
Bengaluru — Kempegowda International (BLR): IndiGo and Akasa Air both operate domestic flights from Terminal 1. (Air India uses Terminal 2, but it is not the main non-stop carrier here.) The two terminals are about 5 km apart with a free shuttle, so confirm T1 on your boarding pass.
Amritsar — Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International (ATQ): a single-terminal airport about 11 km from the city and the Golden Temple. Compact and easy to navigate.
At Bengaluru: BLR is around 35–40 km north of the city — allow 60–90 minutes by app cab in traffic, or use the airport shuttle (Vayu Vajra) buses. Leave plenty of buffer, especially in the evening.
At Amritsar: ATQ is about 11 km from the centre; an app cab or prepaid taxi reaches the Golden Temple in 20–30 minutes.
Standard domestic economy is typically 15 kg check-in plus one 7 kg cabin bag, with cabin-bag-only options on the cheapest fares. On a 3-hour flight it is worth confirming your allowance before you pay. See IndiGo baggage and Akasa Air baggage. Pre-pay any excess online — it is significantly cheaper than at the airport.
Bengaluru is mild year-round; Amritsar runs hot in summer (often 40°C-plus) and cold and foggy in winter, with December nights near freezing. Pack for the destination, not the origin. If you are visiting the Golden Temple, carry a head covering.
Monsoon (Jul–Sep) can bring afternoon delays at Bengaluru; winter fog is the bigger risk at the Amritsar end. Complete web check-in and keep your ID ready.
On a 2,100 km route, the non-stop is worth paying a little extra for — a Delhi connection roughly doubles your travel time. Book the morning IndiGo or Akasa non-stop 4–8 weeks out, compare the two on the all-in price, and avoid the Diwali/Bandi Chhor Divas peak if your dates are flexible.
Yes. IndiGo and Akasa Air operate non-stop, with roughly 6–8 departures a day between them.
A non-stop takes about 3h to 3h 10m gate-to-gate over a distance of roughly 2,100 km — one of the longer domestic sectors in India.
IndiGo (most frequencies) and Akasa Air fly non-stop. Air India sells the route mainly as a connection. Go First and Jet Airways are defunct, and Vistara has merged into Air India.
IndiGo and Akasa Air operate from Terminal 1 at Bengaluru (BLR). The terminals are about 5 km apart, so confirm T1 on your boarding pass.
On this 2,100 km route, yes. A one-stop connection via Delhi can push total travel to 6 hours or more, so the 3-hour non-stop is well worth a modest premium.
Under DGCA rules, an airline cancellation entitles you to a full refund or an alternative flight, with refunds returned to your original payment method. Compensation may apply if you were not informed in time.
Typically 15 kg check-in plus a 7 kg cabin bag in economy, with cabin-bag-only fares on the cheapest buckets. Check the IndiGo and Akasa Air baggage pages and your fare rules before booking.
Usually 48 hours before departure, closing 1–2 hours before. Doing it early lets you choose a seat on a long flight.
Possibly. December–January fog across the Punjab and Delhi belt can disrupt early-morning Amritsar arrivals. A midday arrival is generally more reliable in fog season.
Bengaluru afternoon thunderstorms in July–September can delay later departures. A morning slot reduces the risk.
IndiGo and Akasa have pet policies with advance booking, an approved carrier and health documents. Rules differ, so confirm with the airline before you book.
Infants under two travel on an adult's lap for a nominal fee, with no separate seat. Carry the infant's age proof.
Prices are often similar, but booking direct with the airline makes changes and refunds simpler. FlightGPT compares fares across sources so you can see the genuine cheapest option first.
