There is no direct Calicut–Chittagong flight, so you connect through an eastern Indian gateway and then into Bangladesh. The cleanest path is via Kolkata: fly CCJ to Kolkata (CCU), then take a short hop to Chittagong, sometimes direct and sometimes via Dhaka (DAC) on Biman Bangladesh or US-Bangla. Total elapsed time runs about 7–11 hours depending on the connections. Chennai is an alternative first stop for some Kerala itineraries.
Kolkata is the workhorse Indian hub for Bangladesh, with the closest geography and the most onward options. From there the Kolkata–Chittagong sector is short, around 1 hour direct, while a Dhaka routing adds the country's main hub and US-Bangla or Biman domestic links onward. If you can position to Kolkata cheaply, the Kolkata to Chittagong leg is the heart of this trip.
Connecting economy round-trips from Calicut to Chittagong typically run ₹22,000–₹42,000 depending on season and routing. The monsoon months of May to September are the cheapest, while the cool November–February period and festival seasons push prices up. Self-connecting via a separate Calicut–Kolkata fare plus a Kolkata–Chittagong ticket can save money but means you carry the connection risk yourself.
This is the most important planning point: Indian passport holders need an advance sticker visa for Bangladesh, applied for through the Bangladesh High Commission or an IVAC centre. There is no visa-on-arrival for Indians, so do not turn up without it. Processing usually takes around 5–7 working days, so apply at least 2–3 weeks before travel. Check the document list and port-of-entry endorsements in our visa guide.
Shah Amanat International (CGP) is about 12 km from central Chittagong, a 25–40 minute drive depending on the city's notorious traffic. Pre-paid airport taxis and CNG auto-rickshaws are the usual options; agree the fare first. Carry some Bangladeshi taka for immediate needs, though cards and mobile payments work in larger establishments across the port city.
The dry, cool season from November to February is the most pleasant for visiting, with comfortable 25–30°C days. The monsoon from June to September brings heavy rain and the cheapest fares. Chittagong is the launchpad for Cox's Bazar, home to one of the world's longest unbroken beaches about 150 km south, and for the green Chittagong Hill Tracts — both popular onward trips.
Because this is a multi-leg trip, allow generous connection buffers in Kolkata and Dhaka — at least 2–3 hours if bags are not through-checked. Confirm your Bangladesh visa endorses arrival by air at Chittagong, not only Dhaka. The Bengali language and a relatively low cost of living make this an easy region for Kerala travellers with existing community ties; budget 3–4 days for the city plus a Cox's Bazar extension.
