Goa to Rajkot flights — quick facts

Is the Mopa–Rajkot IndiGo flight running right now?

Status matters on this pair. IndiGo flew Mopa–Rajkot daily (seven a week) through winter 2025–26, then dropped it from its Summer 2026 schedule, along with Vadodara, Surat, Chandigarh and Bhubaneswar from Mopa, citing weak summer demand. A Rajkot city report published on 05 Oct, 2026 says IndiGo restores the non-stop from 25 Oct, 2026, the start of the winter schedule that runs to 29 Mar, 2027, operating four days a week. Timings and exact days had not been widely published at the time of writing. Treat the restart as expected rather than guaranteed, and check your specific date when you search on FlightGPT before planning around it.

Why Gujarat and Goa keep this route seasonal

The Goa–Rajkot link lives on leisure demand. Saurashtra families and groups travel to Goa in the cool months, from late October through March, with peaks at Diwali (Gujarati New Year), Christmas–New Year and the January kite-festival holidays. Once summer heat and then the monsoon arrive in Goa, beach demand falls and the seats are harder to fill, which is why the route has been cut for summer. Return traffic from Goa is smaller and includes Goan businesses dealing with Rajkot's engineering, auto-parts and machine-tool industry. Because the restart falls just after Diwali 2026, early-season seats may fill quickly with post-festival holidaymakers returning home.

Leaving from Mopa: distances and timing

Mopa airport is in Pernem taluka in north Goa, about 35 km from Panaji and 30–40 km from Calangute, Baga and Anjuna. South Goa hotels around Colva, Benaulim and Cavelossim are 70 km or more away, often a two-hour drive. Taxi counters, app cabs and shuttle buses serve the terminal. If your Goa holiday was based in south Goa, check whether your outbound flight landed at Dabolim (GOI); the Rajkot service has used Mopa, so you may be leaving from a different airport than you arrived at. Allow 90 minutes at Mopa before departure during the December–January rush, when check-in and security queues build.

Rajkot's Hirasar airport is a long way from the old one

Rajkot's commercial flights moved in Sept 2023 from the old city airport to the new Rajkot International Airport at Hirasar, on the Rajkot–Ahmedabad highway. It is roughly 30 km from central Rajkot, typically 35–50 minutes by road. That is a big change for locals used to the old airport inside the city, so arrange a cab or family pickup in advance. Hotels in Rajkot often offer transfers. If your final destination is Morbi, Jasdan or Chotila, Hirasar can be more convenient than the city itself, since it sits east of Rajkot towards the highway. Expect a modern terminal with a short walk to the kerb.

IndiGo baggage for Goa to Rajkot

On IndiGo domestic economy, the standard allowance is 15 kg of check-in baggage plus one cabin bag of up to 7 kg and a small personal item such as a handbag. Saver and lower fare types sometimes limit what is included, so check the fare brand you select. If you are bringing back cashew packs, kokum, port wine or other Goa shopping, remember liquids over 100 ml must go in the checked bag. Excess baggage is cheaper when pre-booked online through IndiGo than paid at the Mopa counter. Families travelling together can pool allowances only if they check in together on the same booking.

If there is no non-stop on your date

With the route running only four days a week once it returns, many dates will need a connection. The usual one-stop paths run through Mumbai, Bengaluru or Ahmedabad. Ahmedabad is about 215 km from Rajkot, and some travellers simply fly Goa–Ahmedabad and drive or take the train. Another option is flying to Mumbai and connecting on a Mumbai–Rajkot flight. Rail is possible but long: Goa–Gujarat trains along the Konkan line take most of a day and usually reach Ahmedabad or Vadodara rather than Rajkot directly. Compare connection times carefully; a short layover in Mumbai can be risky if the inbound flight from Goa runs late.

What to see once you land in Saurashtra

Rajkot is a base for exploring Saurashtra. Within the city, the Watson Museum and the Kaba Gandhi no Delo, Mahatma Gandhi's childhood home, are short visits. Many travellers head on to Somnath (around 190 km), Dwarka (around 225 km), Gir National Park for Asiatic lions (around 160 km to Sasan Gir), or Junagadh and Girnar (around 100 km). Rajkot is also known for snacks such as gathiya and chikki, and for its silver and jewellery trade. If you are visiting family, remember that the Hirasar airport is east of the city, so add drive time towards Jamnagar or Gondal.
