Looking for cheap flights from Bangalore to Rajkot?

Whether you want a Bangalore to Rajkot non-stop tomorrow, a last-minute weekend deal or the lowest price three months out, every active Bangalore-Rajkot fare is one search away.
Bengaluru to Rajkot now has a genuine non-stop. IndiGo flies the route directly, currently around one departure a day, taking just over two hours. This is a meaningful upgrade on the old picture, where every option forced a connection. If the single daily non-stop does not suit your timing, you can still connect once via Mumbai (BOM) or Ahmedabad (AMD), where IndiGo and Air India both feed Rajkot's new airport.
Note the airport change that catches many travellers out: Rajkot's flights now use the new Rajkot International Airport at Hirasar (code HSR), about 30 km from the city. The old in-city Rajkot airport (RAJ) has closed to scheduled traffic. Book to Hirasar and plan the longer transfer accordingly.
The Bengaluru–Rajkot distance is about 1,240 km. The IndiGo non-stop covers it in roughly 2h 5m on an A320-family jet. A one-stop itinerary via Mumbai or Ahmedabad realistically runs 4h to 5h once you add the layover, so the non-stop is well worth chasing if its single daily slot fits your day.
Ahmedabad makes the most natural connecting hub for Saurashtra because the second leg into Hirasar is short. Mumbai works too and often has more frequency, but check the total duration — a long Mumbai layover can wipe out any fare saving over the direct flight.
With only one daily non-stop, that flight fills up, so booking ahead pays off more than on a high-frequency trunk route. Gujarat sees demand spikes around Navratri, Diwali and the winter wedding season, when both the direct flight and the better connections sell out early. The table below is a guide to demand pressure rather than a fare quote.
| Period | Demand | Fare pressure |
|---|---|---|
| Sep–Oct (Navratri, Diwali) | Very high | Highest |
| Nov–Feb (winter, weddings) | High | High |
| Mar–May (pre-monsoon) | Moderate | Moderate |
| Jun–Aug (monsoon) | Lower | Softest |
Book the non-stop two to four weeks out, before its single daily slot tightens. If it is sold out or over-priced, compare the Ahmedabad and Mumbai connections side by side — sometimes a one-stop via Ahmedabad with a short second leg lands cheaper than a peak-day direct. Travel mid-week where you can, avoid the festival fortnights, and set a price alert so you catch the dip rather than booking on impulse.
Since the non-stop runs around mid-day, it gets you into Hirasar in the afternoon with the 30 km transfer and evening still ahead — comfortable for a same-day arrival into Rajkot or onward to Jamnagar and Junagadh. If you take a connection, favour a morning Bengaluru departure so a delayed first leg still leaves room to make the second. Avoid late-night Mumbai layovers that turn the trip into an overnight.
Business: The IndiGo non-stop makes a Saurashtra day-trip just about feasible, but the single frequency leaves no margin if it is delayed — keep meetings flexible and consider an overnight. Hirasar is 30 km out, so add that transfer to your timeline.
Families: The direct flight is far easier with children than a Mumbai change. If you must connect, keep it on one PNR so baggage is checked through to Rajkot and you skip a re-check.
Students and budget travellers: Monsoon months are softest. A one-stop via Ahmedabad is often the cheapest valid option; just confirm both legs are on a single ticket so a missed connection is the airline's responsibility.
Bengaluru (BLR): Kempegowda International has two terminals. IndiGo and most low-cost carriers operate from Terminal 1; Air India uses Terminal 2. Confirm your terminal before leaving, as the two are a short walk apart and security is terminal-specific.
Rajkot (HSR): The new Rajkot International Airport at Hirasar has a single modern terminal with passenger boarding bridges. It is about 30 km from Rajkot city on the Ahmedabad highway, so the airport transfer is longer than at the old in-city RAJ airport, which no longer handles scheduled flights.
At Bengaluru, the airport is well north of the city — use the Vayu Vajra airport buses, app cabs or a pre-booked taxi, and allow generously for traffic from areas like Electronic City or Whitefield. At Hirasar, app cabs and prepaid taxis serve the 30 km run into Rajkot; book the return cab in advance, as walk-up availability at a newer airport can be thin outside flight banks. The highway location also makes Hirasar convenient for travellers heading onward to Jamnagar or Junagadh.
IndiGo's domestic economy typically includes 15 kg checked plus a 7 kg cabin bag, though the cheapest fare bundles may be cabin-only — see the IndiGo baggage page for the current limits. On a connecting itinerary via Mumbai or Ahmedabad your bag is through-checked to Hirasar on a single PNR. Weigh everything at home, since airport excess is charged at a steep per-kilo rate.
Rajkot is hot and dry for much of the year, with a sharp monsoon from June to September that can bring brief flight delays. Winter is the pleasant season and also the busiest for weddings and travel. Carry a government photo ID, factor the 30 km Hirasar transfer into your plans, and if you are connecting in Mumbai during the monsoon, build in extra layover buffer.
The single daily IndiGo non-stop is the prize on this route, so grab it early. On FlightGPT, set an alert for the direct flight and compare it against the Ahmedabad connection — and always confirm you are booking to Hirasar (HSR), not the closed old Rajkot airport, before you pay.
Yes. IndiGo now operates a direct Bengaluru–Rajkot flight, currently around one departure a day, taking about 2h 5m. If its single daily slot does not suit you, one-stop connections via Mumbai or Ahmedabad are available.
The new Rajkot International Airport at Hirasar (code HSR), about 30 km from the city. The old in-city Rajkot airport (RAJ) has closed to scheduled flights, so book to Hirasar.
The IndiGo non-stop is about 2h 5m over roughly 1,240 km. A one-stop connection via Mumbai or Ahmedabad runs 4h to 5h with the layover.
Ahmedabad is the most natural connecting point for Saurashtra because the second leg into Hirasar is short. Mumbai also works and often has more frequency, but watch the total duration.
IndiGo operates the non-stop. On connecting itineraries IndiGo and Air India both feed Rajkot via Mumbai or Ahmedabad. Go First and Jet Airways no longer operate, so disregard any old listings showing them.
A valid government photo ID such as Aadhaar, passport or driving licence. No visa is needed for this domestic route.
IndiGo economy usually includes 15 kg checked and 7 kg cabin, though the cheapest fares can be cabin-only. Confirm your fare and see the IndiGo baggage page.
About 30 km, on the Ahmedabad highway. Allow extra time for the transfer and pre-book a return cab, as walk-up taxi availability can be limited outside flight banks.
Yes, typically from 48 hours before departure. On a single-PNR connection you can check in for both legs and often receive both boarding passes together.
Under DGCA rules, if the airline cancels you are entitled to a full refund including taxes, or an alternative flight, processed within the prescribed timeline regardless of fare type.
Direct Bengaluru–Rajkot flights are rarely badly affected, but a Mumbai connection in the June–September monsoon can see delays. Build in layover buffer during those months.
Pet policies vary and most Indian carriers limit in-cabin pets. Check with IndiGo well in advance, and for a connecting trip ensure the pet is accepted on both legs.
No. An infant under two travels on an adult's lap for a small fee and is added to your booking, with proof of age required.
It varies by date. On peak festival days a one-stop via Ahmedabad can undercut the single daily non-stop; off-peak, the direct flight is usually best value once you account for time.
The June–August monsoon months are softest. Navratri, Diwali and the winter wedding season are peak, so book two to four weeks ahead for those periods.
