Delhi to Rajkot airlines at a glance
IndiGo is the dominant carrier on the Delhi–Rajkot corridor, operating multiple daily departures with its A320neo fleet. Air India also offers scheduled services, particularly appealing for passengers with more baggage or business-class needs. SpiceJet flies this sector intermittently with its Boeing 737 MAX fleet. During the winter busy season (October–January) seat availability tightens, so booking at least three weeks ahead is advisable. Interestingly, some afternoon IndiGo departures from DEL T3 can connect passengers from north-east Delhi without the long T2 commute. Codeshare arrangements between Air India and its Star Alliance partners do not add meaningful value on this purely domestic hop.
Delhi to Rajkot: how long does the flight take?
Block time from Indira Gandhi International (DEL) to Rajkot Airport (RAJ) is typically listed at 2 hours 10–20 minutes on the timetable, though westward tailwind assistance in winter sometimes trims actual air time to under 2 hours. The route tracks south-west across Rajasthan and into Saurashtra. No significant intermediate waypoint means routing is direct. Passengers connecting onward to Dwarka, Jamnagar, or Morbi should plan at least 1.5–2 hours ground transfer time from Rajkot Airport, which sits ≈ 4 km from the city centre and roughly 90 minutes by road from Jamnagar.
Cheapest months to book Delhi–Rajkot
Fares on the Delhi–Rajkot sector (as of June 2026) typically range from ₹2,800 one-way during lean periods (February–March, mid-June to mid-July) to ₹6,500+ around Diwali, Navratri, and the December holiday surge. The Uttarayan kite festival week (mid-January) also pushes prices up sharply as Gujarati diaspora returns home. Booking 21–30 days ahead consistently yields fares in the ₹3,200–₹4,500 range for a morning departure. Red-eye or very early morning slots (before 6 AM at DEL) sometimes shave another 10–15% off the midday price.
Rajkot Airport (RAJ) — what to expect on arrival
Rajkot Airport is a mid-sized facility operated by the Airports Authority of India under the UDAN regional connectivity scheme. The single integrated terminal handles both arrivals and departures; baggage claim typically delivers within 15–20 minutes of touchdown. Pre-paid taxi counters and app-based cab services are available just outside the terminal. The airport does not currently have an elevated ATC tower expansion, so peak-hour slot constraints occasionally push IndiGo departures to a 15–20 minute delay. Car rentals from the airport are limited — most travellers book outstation cabs from the city in advance for onward legs to Gir or Somnath.
Baggage and fare classes on DEL–RAJ
As of June 2026, IndiGo's base fares on this route include 7 kg cabin baggage only; checked-bag add-ons start at ≈ ₹700 per 15 kg slab. Air India's Economy includes 15 kg checked allowance, making it competitive for those carrying extra luggage. SpiceJet's SpiceSaver fares are check-in only (no changes); SpiceFlex permits one free date change. None of the carriers currently offer a business cabin on this domestic sector. Families travelling with infants can request a bassinet on Air India; IndiGo charges an infant fee of ≈ ₹990 but does not offer bassinets on this short-haul rotation.
Do you need any documents? (Delhi–Rajkot domestic)
This is a domestic Indian route — no visa or passport is required. A valid government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar card, PAN card, voter ID, driving licence, or passport) is mandatory and must match the name on the booking exactly. Minors under 12 do not need a separate photo ID if accompanied by a parent with valid ID; unaccompanied minors require an additional airline consent form. DigiYatra facial-recognition boarding is active at DEL T3 and is being piloted at Rajkot Airport — enrol once in the DigiYatra app to use it. International visitors transiting through India still need their passport and valid Indian visa even on domestic legs.
Best time to visit Rajkot and Saurashtra
October to March is the ideal window for Rajkot and the wider Saurashtra region, with daytime temperatures ranging from 18 °C to 30 °C and clear skies perfect for visiting the Asiatic lions at Gir National Park (open mid-October to mid-June). Navratri celebrations in Rajkot (September–October) draw huge crowds and are a cultural highlight. The Rann of Kutch festival near Bhuj is held from November to February and makes a worthwhile weekend extension from Rajkot. Summers (April–June) are hot and dry with temperatures exceeding 42 °C, and the monsoon (July–September) brings moderate rain — both periods see significantly cheaper airfares from Delhi.
