SpiceJet is the only airline serving Kandla, and its Delhi flight is the airport's main link to North India. When SpiceJet resumed the route on 26 Oct, 2025, flight SG 2952 was timed to leave Delhi at about 07:40 and land at Kandla around 09:55, operating five days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday). Schedule listings for Oct 2026 still show roughly five weekly flights, but SpiceJet has trimmed several Gujarat routes in 2026, including Kandla–Mumbai, so the pattern can change at short notice. Search your date on FlightGPT and confirm the flight is listed before you build plans around it.
The Q400 is a 78-seat twin-turboprop that cruises noticeably slower than a jet, so a 927 km sector that an A320 would cover in about 1h 45m takes around 2 hours 15 minutes. Kandla's short runway and small apron, designed for ATR-size aircraft, are the reason a jet is not used. Seating is 2–2 with a narrow overhead bin; window seats on the left side heading south-west often show the Aravallis and later the salt flats of the Little Rann as you descend into Kutch. Boarding at Kandla is by stairs on the apron, and in Delhi you may board by bus from a remote stand.
Most passengers are travelling for work. Deendayal Port (formerly Kandla Port) is one of India's largest cargo ports, and nearby Mundra, the Kandla SEZ and Gandhidham's timber, salt, logistics and shipping businesses send a steady stream of executives, surveyors, customs agents and engineers to and from Delhi. Government officials, auditors and ministry teams visiting the port add to it. Leisure traffic picks up in winter, when visitors head to Bhuj and the Rann of Kutch. With only one flight a day on operating days, the morning arrival suits a full working day in Gandhidham, and the return flight leaves Kandla at mid-morning.
Despite its name, Kandla Airport is closest to Gandhidham, about 7.5 km away, and roughly 20 km from Kandla port itself. The terminal is small, built to handle about 100 passengers at a time, with one belt and a few counters, so arrival formalities are quick. Taxis and auto-rickshaws meet the flight; hotel pickups are common for business travellers. Typical onward drives:
A 07:40 departure from Indira Gandhi International Airport means leaving home well before 06:00 from most of NCR. The Airport Express metro line starts early and is the most predictable way to reach the airport from central Delhi; from Gurugram or Noida, a cab at that hour is usually 30–50 minutes. SpiceJet has operated from different Delhi terminals over the years, so check the terminal printed on your boarding pass rather than relying on memory. Bag drop closes 45–60 minutes before departure. On a 78-seat aircraft the gate may be a remote bus stand, which adds 10–15 minutes, so do not linger at security.
SpiceJet's standard domestic economy fare includes 15 kg check-in baggage and a 7 kg cabin bag. Some lower fare types may differ, so read your fare rules. On the Q400, larger cabin trolleys are often taken at the aircraft door and returned on the airbridge or apron, so keep a laptop, documents and medicines in a smaller bag. Excess baggage costs less when prepaid online than at the counter. Business travellers carrying samples, survey instruments or drawings should check SpiceJet's rules on dimensions, since a turboprop hold has less room for long items than a jet.
Demand on this route is driven by business calendars and the Kutch tourist season rather than school holidays. Expect tighter availability:
With 78 seats on about five days a week, there is little spare capacity. Compare dates on FlightGPT early, and remember that SpiceJet's fares move as the aircraft fills.
On days SG 2952 does not operate, the usual alternatives are flying Delhi to Ahmedabad, which has many daily flights, and driving about 300 km (5–6 hours) to Gandhidham, or flying to Bhuj when connections suit and driving about an hour to Gandhidham. Overnight trains from Delhi to Gandhidham and Bhuj also run and take roughly 20–24 hours. For tourists, Bhuj is closer to the Rann of Kutch and Dhordo; for port and SEZ business, Kandla is the more convenient airport. For the return trip, see the Kandla to Delhi page.
