Looking for cheap flights from Hyderabad to Surat? FlightGPT compares live HYD to STV fares across every connected source — Indian carriers, Gulf hubs, OTAs and trusted travel agents — and shows the cheapest options side by side. Whether you want a Hyderabad to Surat non-stop tomorrow, a last-minute weekend deal or the lowest price three months out, every active Hyderabad-Surat fare is one search away.
True non-stop Hyderabad–Surat flights exist on IndiGo with typically one daily departure, though frequency varies seasonally. On days without a non-stop, the practical option is a 1-stop via Mumbai (HYD→BOM→STV) adding roughly 2 hours to the journey but providing far more timing flexibility — Mumbai is the natural hub for both cities. Air India Express has occasionally operated this sector. Ahmedabad (AMD) is a secondary connection point; a HYD→AMD→STV combination is less common but may surface as the lowest-cost option during peak periods. Always filter 'non-stop only' on FlightGPT if time is a priority.
Surat polishes roughly 90% of the world's cut diamonds, and the business-travel demand from Hyderabad (home to several gem-trading families) means mid-week flights often fill faster than weekend ones — the reverse of typical leisure routes. Fares tend to be lowest in the monsoon (July–August) and in January, when trade shows thin out. The International Indian Jewellery Show (typically August–September, Mumbai) spills demand onto Hyderabad–Surat routes as buyers transit. Book 2–3 weeks ahead for mid-week travel; for Navratri or Diwali, book 6+ weeks out as Surat fills with returning family visitors.
On the non-stop, the aircraft crosses the Deccan plateau westward, hugging the Maharashtra–Gujarat border before the short descent into Surat Airport (STV). There is virtually no cruising phase on a 660 km flight — the aircraft ascends steeply, hits its service ceiling briefly, and begins descent within about 35–40 minutes. Meal service is not provided on IndiGo's short-haul economy; snacks are available for purchase. The 1-stop via Mumbai adds a 45–60 min ground stop at BOM and changes the total block time to ≈ 3h 30m–4h depending on connection.
Hyderabad's RGIA is a single integrated terminal ≈ 22 km from Hitech City via the Outer Ring Road. The Hyderabad Metro does not yet reach RGIA; pre-booked app cabs (Ola, Uber) or the TSRTC Pushpak airport bus are the main options. Allow 45–60 minutes from Hitech City in normal traffic, 75–90 minutes during peak hours. Web check-in for IndiGo opens 48 hours before departure; boarding closes 25 minutes before departure on domestic routes. Security at RGIA for domestic flights is typically efficient — 30 minutes is sufficient if you have already checked in online.
On IndiGo, the base 'Super Saver' fare includes 7 kg cabin bag only. A 15 kg check-in bag costs ₹600–₹1,100 extra when added at booking versus ₹1,800–₹2,500 at the airport. For this short route, many business travellers fly carry-on only. Economy one-way fares in lean periods hover around ₹2,000–₹4,500; during festive peaks they can exceed ₹8,000. As of June 2026, IndiGo's flex fares (SuperFlexi) on this route allow free rescheduling up to 2 hours before departure, useful for traders whose schedules shift.
Surat Airport (STV) is in Magdalla, about 12 km south-west of the city centre near Vesu. Pre-paid taxis are available from the arrivals hall; the fare to Surat Railway Station is roughly ₹250–₹350 and takes 25–35 minutes depending on traffic. Auto-rickshaws serve shorter hops within Magdalla and Vesu. The BRTS (Bus Rapid Transit) route does not directly serve STV — the nearest BRTS stop requires a connecting auto ride. Ride-hailing (Ola, Uber) is available but surge pricing applies during flight arrival windows. There is no shuttle service from STV to the Hazira industrial belt.
Hyderabad to Surat is a wholly domestic route — no visa, passport or special permit is needed. A valid government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar card, Voter ID, driving licence, passport or PAN card) is mandatory for adults. Children under 12 require a birth certificate when travelling without a passport. DigiYatra (biometric check-in) is available at HYD for passengers who have enrolled — it eliminates the need to show physical boarding passes at the RGIA terminal, speeding up the security lane. Carry a backup digital boarding pass regardless as a failsafe.
Yes — IndiGo typically operates one daily non-stop taking ≈ 1h 30m. On some days, only a 1-stop via Mumbai (total ≈ 3h 30m) is available. Filter by 'non-stop' on FlightGPT to check availability on your date.
Economy one-way fares range from ₹2,000–₹4,500 in off-peak periods and can rise to ₹7,000–₹9,000 during Navratri and Diwali season when demand from Surat's Gujarati community is highest.
The non-stop takes ≈ 1 hour 30 minutes. A 1-stop via Mumbai adds roughly 2 hours, making total journey time ≈ 3h 30m–4h.
IndiGo is the primary carrier with daily service. Air India Express has operated this route seasonally. Check current availability on FlightGPT as schedules change quarterly.
