Bengaluru (BLR) to Delhi (DEL) is one of India's busiest long-haul domestic trunk routes, connecting the tech capital with the political capital. Five carriers fly it non-stop: IndiGo (the largest operator), Air India, Akasa Air, Air India Express and SpiceJet. Together they run roughly 30–40 non-stops a day, giving you a departure most hours across the day. Air India operates widebody Boeing 787 aircraft on some rotations, so this is one of the few domestic sectors where you may find a proper flat-bed business cabin — check Air India if that matters to you. Go First and Jet Airways no longer operate, and Vistara has merged into Air India.
At roughly 1,740 km, Bengaluru–Delhi is one of the longer domestic sectors in India, and non-stop flights take about 2h 45m gate to gate — closer to three hours on some rotations depending on winds and routing. A handful of one-stop itineraries route via hubs such as Mumbai or Hyderabad, but on a route this frequent the non-stop almost always wins on both time and price. Filter for non-stop in the FlightGPT search so connecting options don't clutter your results.
Fares on Bengaluru–Delhi track demand and the route's length means they sit a little higher than the shorter metro hops. Peaks cluster around Diwali, the winter wedding season, the Christmas–New Year break and summer school holidays, plus the steady year-round business and tech-corridor demand. Booking 2–4 weeks ahead is usually enough, with peak dates rewarding earlier booking. The tiers below show relative demand, not quoted prices.
| Period | Demand | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Jan | High | Conferences, wedding-season tail |
| Feb–Apr | Shoulder | Pleasant Bengaluru weather |
| May–Jun | High | Summer school holidays |
| Jul–Sep | Shoulder | Monsoon; steadier fares |
| Oct | High | Festive run-up, Dussehra |
| Nov–Dec | Peak | Diwali, weddings, year-end break |

To save honestly on Bengaluru–Delhi: fly the red-eye or first-wave morning departures rather than the crowded business banks; choose mid-week (Tuesday–Wednesday) over Friday and Sunday; and travel cabin-bag-only to skip the checked-bag fee on the leanest saver fares. Because this is a longer sector, the fare spread between the cheapest and priciest seats is wider than on a short hop, so off-peak timing pays off more. Avoid the final-week price jump and festival dates, and compare all five carriers rather than loyalty-booking — the cheapest operator changes by the day. Confirm the live price in the FlightGPT search.
With a departure most hours, which slot you pick affects both fare and comfort. The two daily peaks are the business banks — the early-morning push (roughly 6–9am) and the evening return (roughly 5–9pm) — which airlines price up first and discount last. The red-eye (around midnight–6am) is the quietest and usually cheapest, and on a near-three-hour sector an overnight flight can double as your travel time, landing you in Delhi for a working morning. The midday lull (roughly 11am–3pm) suits leisure travellers with softer fares and daylight flying. One Delhi caveat: the December–January fog season most often disrupts arrivals in the 4–9am slots, so a mid-morning landing is safer in deep winter.
Business travellers should buy flexibility — with frequent departures, a flexible/Flexi-style fare lets you roll to an earlier or later flight if a meeting over-runs. This is also one of the few domestic routes with a genuine widebody business product (Air India's 787 on some rotations), worth booking if you want a flat bed on a near-three-hour sector. Route bookings through your corporate travel desk for negotiated fares and the GST invoice for input-tax-credit reclaim, and check terminals before you go. Families should pre-book seats together (unallocated seats are assigned at check-in and families are routinely split), carry age-proof for any infant, and pack snacks — the longer flight time makes meals more worthwhile here than on a short hop. An infant under 2 flies on your lap for a nominal fee; a child of 2 or older needs a full-priced seat with no real child discount on Indian LCCs. Students: Air India, Air India Express and IndiGo run a modest student offer (roughly 10% off base fare plus about 10kg extra baggage) when you book direct, for travellers 12+, with enrolment proof — the extra baggage alone can be worth claiming if you're moving hostel kit, but it is not a half-price fare.
You depart Bengaluru's Kempegowda International Airport (BLR), where IndiGo, Akasa and SpiceJet use Terminal 1 and Air India uses the newer Terminal 2. You arrive at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL), where IndiGo, Akasa and SpiceJet use Terminal 1, while Air India and Air India Express use Terminal 3. Both airports' terminals are separate with no quick airside link, so if you're connecting onward, confirm your arrival and departure terminals in advance. Always check your boarding pass, as assignments can change.
Bengaluru (BLR). Kempegowda International sits about 35–40 km north of the city centre, so the transfer is long — budget generously, especially in peak traffic. App cabs and the BMTC Vayu Vajra airport buses are the reliable options; the Namma Metro's airport line is under construction but not yet serving the airport, so road remains the main route for now. Leave plenty of margin and aim to reach the airport about 2 hours before a domestic departure. Delhi (DEL). The Airport Express (Orange Line) serves Terminal 3 (about 20 minutes to New Delhi station); for Terminal 1, the Magenta Line's dedicated 'Terminal 1–IGI Airport' station is a short covered walk from the building. There's no airside link between Delhi's terminals — the only connection is the landside DIAL shuttle — so never assume you can walk between them. Add buffer in the December–January fog window. See our route hub for more city guides.
Domestic economy fares include 15 kg checked plus one 7 kg cabin bag on IndiGo, Akasa, SpiceJet, Air India and Air India Express; Air India's premium fares and elite tiers may allow more. The cheapest saver fares on some carriers are cabin-only, so confirm the checked allowance against your specific fare, and pre-purchase any excess online — airport per-kg charges are far steeper. For exact size limits and excess rates, see the IndiGo baggage, Akasa Air baggage, SpiceJet baggage and Air India baggage pages.
Bengaluru's weather is mild year-round, but its monsoon (June–September) and the long road transfer to the airport can both eat into your buffer, so leave early. At the Delhi end, the December–January fog season frequently delays early-morning arrivals, so a mid-morning landing is more reliable in deep winter. On a near-three-hour sector, the red-eye doubles as a productive overnight option. Web check-in opens 48 hours before departure on all carriers. Carry a valid government photo ID; foreign nationals fly on their passport. Allow about 2 hours before departure.
Bengaluru–Delhi is long enough (roughly 1,740 km, ~2h 45m) that the red-eye genuinely works in your favour: an overnight departure is usually the cheapest fare and effectively converts your travel time into sleep, landing you in Delhi for a full working morning. If you want comfort over savings, this is one of the rare domestic routes where Air India flies a widebody 787 with a real flat-bed business cabin on some rotations — worth checking by aircraft type. Either way, book 2–4 weeks ahead, watch the December–January Delhi fog at the arrival end, and compare all five carriers on one screen in the FlightGPT search.
IndiGo, Air India, Akasa Air, Air India Express and SpiceJet all operate non-stop between Bengaluru and Delhi. IndiGo is the largest operator, and Air India flies a widebody 787 on some rotations. Go First and Jet Airways no longer operate, and Vistara has merged into Air India.
Non-stop flights take roughly 2 hours 45 minutes gate to gate, covering about 1,740 km — one of the longer domestic sectors in India. Some rotations run closer to three hours depending on winds and routing.
Roughly 30–40 non-stop departures operate daily across the five carriers, giving you a flight most hours. Frequency rises during festival and peak winter weeks.
At Bengaluru (BLR), IndiGo, Akasa and SpiceJet use Terminal 1, while Air India uses Terminal 2. At Delhi (DEL), IndiGo, Akasa and SpiceJet use Terminal 1, while Air India and Air India Express use Terminal 3. Always check your boarding pass.
Yes — Air India operates a widebody Boeing 787 on some Bengaluru–Delhi rotations, which can offer a proper flat-bed business cabin. This is one of the few domestic routes where that's available, so check by aircraft type if comfort matters to you.
Booking 2–4 weeks ahead is usually enough, with peak dates (Diwali, year-end, weddings, summer holidays) rewarding earlier booking. On this longer sector the red-eye is often the cheapest fare of the day.
Domestic economy fares typically include 15 kg checked plus one 7 kg cabin bag. The leanest saver fares on some carriers are cabin-only, so confirm against your fare and pre-buy any excess online to avoid steep airport per-kg charges.
Web check-in opens 48 hours before departure on IndiGo, Air India, Akasa, SpiceJet and Air India Express. Use it to choose seats and skip the queue; arrive about 2 hours before a domestic departure.
Delhi's December–January fog season frequently delays early-morning arrivals into DEL. If you're travelling in deep winter, a mid-morning landing is more reliable than the 4–9am slots, which are most exposed to low-visibility delays.
Kempegowda International sits about 35–40 km north of the city centre, so the transfer is long — often 60–90 minutes or more in peak traffic. Use app cabs or BMTC Vayu Vajra buses and aim to reach the airport about 2 hours before a domestic departure.
Yes. Under DGCA rules, if the airline cancels your flight you're entitled to a full refund (including statutory taxes and fees) or free re-accommodation on an alternative flight. For passenger-initiated cancellations, the refundable amount depends on your fare type, minus any applicable cancellation fee.
Pet acceptance varies by airline and capacity is limited, so you must book and confirm in advance. Air India accepts pets in cabin (small) and cargo subject to conditions; IndiGo and Akasa have restricted pet acceptance. Check the carrier's current policy before booking.
An infant under 2 travels on your lap for a nominal infant fee; a child aged 2 or older needs a full-priced seat. Carry an age-proof document such as a birth certificate, as carriers can ask for it at check-in.
Prices are often similar, but booking direct on the airline's own app or website is where student discounts and some promotional fares live, and it can simplify changes and refunds. Use a metasearch like FlightGPT to compare carriers first, then book wherever the fare is lowest.
