Bengaluru (BLR) to Hubli/Hubballi (HBX) is a genuine non-stop intra-Karnataka route. In 2026 it is flown mainly by IndiGo on ATR 72 turboprops, with Star Air also serving the pairing on its Embraer regional jets. Between them you typically get around two to three daily non-stops, with the route operating most days of the week.
Flight time is short — roughly 1h 10m to 1h 20m. Ignore any old listing showing Go First, Jet Airways or Vistara: Go First and Jet Airways have shut down and Vistara has merged into Air India. The realistic 2026 choice here is IndiGo or Star Air.
The cities are about 410 km apart, so this is a short regional sector. IndiGo flies it on the ATR 72 turboprop and Star Air on Embraer regional jets; either way you are looking at a little over an hour in the air. Turboprops cruise lower and slower than jets, which is normal on a route this length and makes no practical difference for a sub-90-minute flight.
As with any short hop, airport time at both ends is a meaningful share of the journey, so plan around check-in and security rather than the flight clock.
This is a thin regional route, so price tracks how full the day's flights are more than the calendar. Booking a couple of weeks ahead is usually enough for steady fares. Demand firms up around festivals and the North-Karnataka pilgrimage and event calendar.
| Period | Demand | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Oct–Feb (pleasant season) | Higher | Comfortable weather; book ahead |
| Mar–May (summer) | Moderate | Warmer; generally easier seats |
| Jun–Sep (monsoon) | Lower | Often cheapest; some weather delays |
| Festivals/long weekends | High | Limited regional seats sell fast |
We never quote a fixed fare — on a route with just a few daily seats, price moves quickly. Check live options before booking.
With two carriers and limited frequency, timing is everything:
For a flight this short, pick the slot that suits your day at the Hubli end. Morning departures give the best buffer and the most flexibility if you have meetings or onward plans. Monsoon afternoons in North Karnataka can bring thunderstorms, so an earlier flight is the safer monsoon-season choice.
Business travellers serving the North-Karnataka industrial belt use the morning service in and an evening return; carry-on only keeps it quick on a turboprop with limited overhead space.
Families get an easy short flight, but with only a handful of daily seats you should book early and confirm the return timing so you are not stranded for the day.
Students and budget travellers should compare the train and bus — they are much cheaper, though far slower; the flight earns its keep only if the saved hours matter.
Bengaluru (BLR), Kempegowda International is a large two-terminal airport; domestic flights use Terminal 1 (T1) for IndiGo and Star Air on this route (Air India domestic uses T2). It sits about 40 km north of the city, so allow generously for traffic getting there.
Hubballi (HBX) is a compact single-terminal airport a few kilometres from the city centre. Check-in and security are quick; arrive 60–75 minutes ahead for the domestic flight.
Bengaluru airport is a long way out — budget 60–90 minutes from the city by app cab, the Vayu Vajra airport buses, or pre-paid taxi, more in peak traffic. Plan backwards from your departure carefully; BLR's distance is the single biggest trip-planning factor on this route.
At Hubballi, taxis and autos cover the short distance into town in 15–20 minutes. There is no rail link to the terminal, so arrange a cab or pick-up.
Domestic fares on IndiGo and Star Air typically include 15 kg checked plus a 7 kg cabin bag, though it varies by fare. On the small ATR/Embraer aircraft used here, overhead space is limited, so larger cabin bags may be tagged at the gate. Confirm your fare's allowance and see IndiGo baggage for current rules.
Bengaluru is mild most of the year; Hubli and North Karnataka are hotter in summer (March–May) and wetter in the June–September monsoon, when afternoon thunderstorms can cause short delays. October to February is the most comfortable window at both ends. Pack light for a quick regional hop.
Always compare IndiGo and Star Air side by side on your date — with only a few daily seats, the cheaper carrier flips often. And because Bengaluru's airport is 40 km out, the real planning challenge here is the ground journey to BLR, not the 70-minute flight: leave plenty of time, and a morning departure in monsoon season keeps you ahead of afternoon storms.
Yes. IndiGo (on ATR 72 turboprops) and Star Air (on Embraer regional jets) both fly the route non-stop, with around two to three daily departures between them over about 410 km.
About 1h 10m to 1h 20m non-stop. It is a short regional sector, so airport processing makes up a fair share of the total trip time.
IndiGo and Star Air in 2026. IndiGo uses ATR 72 turboprops and Star Air uses Embraer regional jets. Go First and Jet Airways no longer operate, and Vistara has merged into Air India.
Domestic IndiGo and Star Air flights use Terminal 1 (T1) at Kempegowda International. Air India domestic uses T2. Check your boarding pass, as the airport runs two terminals.
Roughly two to three non-stops a day across IndiGo and Star Air, operating most days of the week. Frequency is limited, so book early to secure a same-day seat.
Yes. Under DGCA rules, if the airline cancels you are due a full refund or a free alternative flight. If you cancel, the refundable amount depends on your fare type and the airline's policy.
Typically 15 kg checked plus a 7 kg cabin bag on a domestic fare, but it varies. On the small ATR and Embraer aircraft, large cabin bags may be gate-tagged. Check your fare and the IndiGo baggage page.
Yes. Both IndiGo and Star Air offer web check-in, generally opening around 48 hours before departure. On a short hop, online check-in with cabin baggage is the fastest route through.
It can. North-Karnataka monsoon afternoons (June–September) sometimes bring thunderstorms and short delays. A morning departure is the safer choice in the wet season.
IndiGo and Star Air may accept pets on domestic flights subject to weight, carrier and advance approval, but space on small regional aircraft is limited. Confirm the policy directly before booking.
Yes. Infants under two travel on an adult's lap for a small fee. Carry age proof and request a suitable seat when booking.
It depends on your time. Bus and train are far cheaper but much slower. The flight earns its value only if saving several hours matters to you, especially given Bengaluru airport's 40 km distance from the city.
Prices are usually close. Booking direct can simplify changes; an OTA or FlightGPT lets you compare IndiGo and Star Air together for your date and time.
No visa or permit — this is a domestic flight. Carry a government photo ID, or use DigiYatra where available, for the security check at both airports.
