Airlines Guwahati to Dhaka
IndiGo (6E) is the carrier flying Guwahati-Dhaka non-stop, with multiple services a week on a single-aisle aircraft in about an hour. On dates without a convenient non-stop, you can connect via Kolkata on IndiGo or other carriers, though that is slower and usually pricier.

Flight schedule & timings
The non-stop Guwahati-Dhaka flight blocks about 1 hour — one of the quickest international hops available from India. Check the exact days of operation, as it does not fly daily. A 1-stop via Kolkata can total 4-8 hours depending on the connection, so the non-stop is the obvious choice when it runs.
Bangladesh is 30 minutes ahead of India. A daytime Guwahati departure lands you in Dhaka the same day with time to spare. See our Dhaka destination guide.
When to book for the lowest fare
For Guwahati to Dhaka, the sweet spot is generally 3-6 weeks before departure. Booking inside two weeks usually leaves only the higher fare buckets, while booking too far out rarely beats the mid-range window. For peak travel — summer holidays, Diwali and the year-end fortnight — push your booking to 6-10 weeks ahead, as the cheapest classes vanish first.
Set a price alert in the FlightGPT chat the moment your dates firm up. Layer a qualifying bank-card offer on top for further savings. Our 2026 online booking guide walks through the full tactics.
Cheapest days & times to fly
Mid-week departures (Tuesday and Wednesday) are typically the cheapest Guwahati to Dhaka days, while Friday, Saturday and Sunday carry a weekend premium. Early-morning and late-night departures are often a touch cheaper than the prime daytime banks.
If your dates are flexible, flying out mid-week and back mid-week is the lowest-cost combination. Splitting a return into two one-ways — one carrier out, another back — occasionally beats the round-trip fare, so it is worth comparing both in the FlightGPT chat.
Baggage allowance & extra fees
On international economy fares, full-service carriers usually include 25-30 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin on this route, while low-cost and basic fares may include less or be hand-baggage-only — so check the exact allowance on your specific fare before you book.
Extra checked baggage is far cheaper pre-paid online than at the airport counter. Seat selection, paid meals and priority are chargeable add-ons; skipping them keeps the all-in fare lowest. Always verify the current figures on the operating airline's official site, as allowances and fees change.
Dhaka airport & arrival guide
You land at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC), the main gateway in northern Dhaka, with a new Terminal 3 expanding capacity. Have your Bangladesh visa, return ticket and accommodation details ready. Ride-hailing apps (Uber, Pathao) and taxis serve the city, though Dhaka traffic is heavy, so allow plenty of time.
The Bangladeshi taka is local currency; carry some cash as card acceptance varies. See our Dhaka destination guide.
Visa & entry for Indian passport holders
Indian passport holders do need a visa for Bangladesh, but here's the good news: the visa fee is waived for Indian nationals — you pay no visa fee, only any service/processing charges where applicable. Apply in advance via the Bangladesh e-visa portal or at a Bangladesh High Commission/Deputy High Commission in India (there is one in Guwahati), with a passport valid at least six months, photographs and supporting documents.
Processing typically takes around 5-7 working days, so apply ahead. Carry the visa, onward ticket and accommodation proof on arrival. Confirm the latest on the official portal, and see our general visa guide for Indian travellers. Official Bangladesh e-Visa portal.
Cancellation, refund & date-change rules
On international tickets, each airline sets its own cancellation and change fees by fare type. Cheaper fares carry higher penalties or are non-refundable except for statutory taxes, while flexible fares allow changes for a smaller fee plus any fare difference. Always read the fare rules shown at booking, and verify current penalty amounts on the airline's official site before you book.
If the airline cancels your Guwahati to Dhaka flight, you are entitled to a refund or a rebook on the next available service under the carrier's conditions of carriage.
