Four airlines appear on this route. Air India runs Delhi–Jaisalmer with A320 aircraft; for winter 2025–26 it flew twice daily, with AI487 leaving Delhi at 07:20 and arriving at 08:50, and AI489 at 12:50. IndiGo and SpiceJet also fly from Delhi, and Alliance Air adds seasonal flights. Not every airline runs every day, and numbers fall in the hot months: in August 2026 one listing showed about 18 flights a week from Delhi. Expect more frequencies from late October, when the winter schedule starts. Search and compare all carriers for your date on FlightGPT, then check the operating days for the flight you prefer.
Jaisalmer Airport is a civil enclave on an Indian Air Force station, run by the Airports Authority of India, about 12.6 km from the city. Civil flights were suspended in 2015 and returned in 2017 under the UDAN scheme. The terminal, completed in 2013, is modest, with parking for three A321-size aircraft, so it gets crowded when several flights arrive close together on winter mornings. Being near the border, security can be strict and photography is restricted around the airfield. In the April 2025 to March 2026 financial year the airport handled about 2.43 lakh passengers, most of them in the cooler months.
Jaisalmer is a winter destination. Days from November to February are pleasant, with cold desert nights, ideal for the fort, the havelis and an overnight camp at Sam or Khuri. The Desert Festival, usually held in late January or February around the full moon, draws heavy crowds. Diwali, Christmas–New Year and long weekends push demand and fares up sharply, and hotels in camps fill early. From April to June, temperatures often cross 40°C and flights thin out; July to September is hot and humid with light rain. Book early for winter holiday dates, and compare all four airlines on FlightGPT, since one carrier may still have seats when the others are full.
The airport is about 12.6 km from the city, a drive of 20 to 30 minutes to hotels near Sonar Qila, the living fort. Pre-paid taxis and hotel pickups are the usual choice; app cabs are limited. Desert camps at Sam Sand Dunes are about 40 to 45 km west of the city, roughly an hour from the airport, and most camps run their own transfers if you ask. Khuri, another dune area, is a bit further south-west. Arrange transport before you land, especially on evening arrivals, as taxi drivers may leave after the last flight. Inside the old city, lanes are narrow, so you may need to walk the last stretch to a fort hotel.
Your Delhi terminal depends on the airline. Air India domestic flights have mainly used Terminal 3; IndiGo uses Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 for different flights; SpiceJet has operated from Terminal 1; and Alliance Air flights have used Terminal 3. Always check your boarding pass, because Delhi's terminals are not linked airside. T3 is on the Airport Express metro; T1 has its own Magenta Line station. Early-morning flights in December and January face fog delays at Delhi, so build slack into tight plans such as a same-day camp check-in. Allow two hours before departure at Delhi, plus travel time across the city.
On standard domestic economy fares, IndiGo allows 15 kg check-in and 7 kg cabin baggage; Air India and SpiceJet generally offer 15 kg check-in plus 7 kg cabin, though lighter fare types may cut or remove the check-in allowance. Alliance Air fares have typically included about 15 kg check-in, with smaller overhead space if the flight uses a turboprop. Desert nights are cold in winter, so pack layers; jackets add weight quickly. If you plan to buy textiles, mirror-work or stone carvings in Jaisalmer, leave space or pre-pay extra baggage online for the flight home. Jaisalmer's yellow sandstone carvings are heavy, so ship larger pieces by courier.
Delhi to Jaisalmer by train usually takes 17 to 19 hours, and the drive of about 780 km takes most of two days in practice. A 1 hour 30 minute flight changes the trip: a long weekend becomes a realistic desert break, with two full days for the fort, Patwon ki Haveli, Gadisar Lake and the dunes. The trade-off is that flights are limited and fares can be high in peak weeks. Some travellers fly one way and return by the overnight train for variety. For the reverse journey, read our Jaisalmer to Delhi flight guide, which covers check-in at the enclave airport and return timings.
If non-stops are sold out, consider flying to Jodhpur (JDH), which has year-round flights from Delhi, and driving about 285 km to Jaisalmer, roughly five hours. Jaisalmer also has IndiGo flights from Jaipur, Mumbai and Ahmedabad, so a one-stop itinerary via one of those cities can work, though it adds hours. For one-stop trips, prefer a single ticket so that a delay on the first leg is the airline's problem, not yours. In the hot months, when Jaisalmer flights thin out, Jodhpur is often the most dependable gateway, and the drive passes Pokhran on the way.
