Delhi to Rajkot is now served exclusively into Hirasar (HSR), the new greenfield airport that took over all scheduled flights from the old Rajkot city airport (RAJ) in September 2023. IndiGo and Air India are the two carriers operating the non-stop, between them giving roughly two to three departures a day on Airbus A320-family jets.
SpiceJet is not a current operator into Hirasar on this sector, so disregard older listings that show it. Go First and Jet Airways no longer fly, and Vistara has merged into Air India — if you see those names on an old result, ignore them. For most travellers the choice is simply IndiGo versus Air India on timing and price.
The distance is about 920 km and the non-stop takes roughly 1h 55m, a straightforward south-westerly run from Delhi into the Saurashtra region of Gujarat. Both cities are on IST, so no time change. The new Hirasar airport sits well outside Rajkot city, which lengthens the road leg at the Gujarat end — worth planning for even though the flight itself is short.
Aircraft are typically A320 or A320neo jets. As with most short trunk routes from Delhi, your door-to-door time is shaped more by Delhi's taxi and security queues and the drive from Hirasar than by the cruise itself, so build in a buffer at both ends.
Rajkot is a business-and-VFR market for the Saurashtra region rather than a tourist hub, so fares track weekday demand, weddings and festivals. The table below is a qualitative guide, not a fare quote.
| Period | Demand | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Oct–Mar (cool season) | Moderate–High | Pleasant weather, Navratri and wedding travel; book 2–4 weeks ahead. |
| Apr–Jun (summer) | Lower | Saurashtra is very hot; leisure demand dips and fares often soften. |
| Jul–Sep (monsoon) | Lower–Moderate | Quieter; some of the better fares, with occasional weather delays. |
| Navratri, weekends | Spikes | Gujarat's festival calendar lifts demand sharply — book early. |
With only a couple of non-stops a day, seats on popular slots fill faster than on a high-frequency route, so book ahead.
Book two to four weeks ahead and shift off Friday and Sunday peaks where you can. Compare IndiGo against Air India — they price the sector differently day to day — and watch the fare trend with an alert rather than buying the first quote. Early-morning and late-evening departures are often the cheapest slots. As always, compare the all-in price including baggage, since a bare fare with paid bags can end up dearer than a fuller one that includes them.
A morning flight gets you into Hirasar with time for the road leg into Rajkot and a working afternoon. Given the airport's distance from the city, an early arrival also means you tackle the drive in daylight. Mid-day departures are usually quietest at Delhi security. Evening flights suit a full day in Delhi but leave the Hirasar road transfer for after dark — fine if your transport is arranged, less ideal otherwise. Book early whichever slot you choose, as frequency is modest.
Business travellers serving Saurashtra industry should pick a morning non-stop, do web check-in, and factor the Hirasar-to-city drive into meeting times. Families visiting relatives should book ahead around Navratri and the wedding season, when the few seats tighten; the flight is short and easy. Students and budget travellers get the best value mid-week and in the summer/monsoon shoulder — be flexible by a day, travel light, and book a couple of weeks out.
From Delhi, IndiGo departs Terminal 1 and Air India domestic uses Terminal 3 — check your boarding pass, as Delhi terminal allocations can shift. The two terminals are some way apart, so confirm before you travel. At the Gujarat end you arrive at Rajkot International Airport, Hirasar (HSR), a modern greenfield airport opened in 2023 with a single terminal. The old Rajkot city airport (RAJ) no longer handles scheduled commercial flights, so make sure your booking and pick-up are for Hirasar, which is well outside the city.
Delhi's IGI is served by the Airport Express metro and app cabs; allow time to reach the right terminal in peak traffic, and remember T1 and T3 are separate. Hirasar airport sits roughly 30 km from Rajkot city, around 40–50 minutes by road — noticeably farther than the old airport, so plan the transfer in advance. App cabs and prepaid taxis serve the route, and many travellers arrange a hotel or company car. Build the drive into your schedule, especially for an evening arrival.
Standard domestic economy allowance is 15 kg checked plus a 7 kg cabin bag, with the cheapest fares sometimes hand-baggage-only. Weigh your bag before you leave home, as airport excess charges are far higher than pre-paid online weight. See IndiGo baggage for the current limits, and check the Air India rules if you fly with them.
Saurashtra is intensely hot from April to June, so carry light cottons and stay hydrated; the pleasant season runs October to February, ideal for visiting Rajkot and the wider region — Gondal, Jamnagar and the Gir lion sanctuary are all within reach. The monsoon (July–September) is humid with occasional heavy showers. Delhi's winter fog (December–January) is the bigger operational risk for the departure end, so for early flights track your status the night before and keep the morning flexible.
The key fact for Delhi–Rajkot is that all flights now land at the new Hirasar (HSR) airport, well outside the city — so book to HSR, not the old RAJ field, and plan the road transfer.
