Kolkata to Hyderabad is flown non-stop by IndiGo, Air India, Air India Express and Akasa Air. IndiGo runs the most frequencies, with Air India offering a full-service option and the rest competing on low-cost fares.
Go First and Jet Airways have shut down and Vistara has merged into Air India, so those names no longer appear. Non-stops dominate this route; one-stop fares usually route via Bhubaneswar, Nagpur or another metro and add several hours, so only take them for a real saving.
The air distance is about 1,200 km and a non-stop takes roughly 2h 10m airborne. The schedule may show a little more to cover taxi time. A one-stop itinerary typically runs 4h 30m to 6h overall, so the non-stop is the sensible default unless the price difference is large.
Fares climb around Durga Puja and Diwali at the Kolkata end and over the year-end break. Booking two to four weeks ahead usually gets a fair price; festival-week and same-day bookings cost the most.
| Period | Demand | Fare trend |
|---|---|---|
| Jul–Sep (monsoon) | Low–moderate | Often the cheapest window |
| Oct (Durga Puja / Diwali) | Very high | Steep spike — book well ahead |
| Nov–Feb | Moderate–high | Pleasant weather; steady fares |
| Apr–Jun (summer) | Moderate | Mid-range; hot at both ends |
These are trends only — live fares change continuously.
Simple steps that help on Kolkata–Hyderabad:
The first flight leaves around 5:20am, useful for a full day in Hyderabad or onward connections from RGIA's single terminal. Late-evening departures suit a complete working day in Kolkata. Mid-morning and early-afternoon slots tend to carry the lowest fares.
Business: an early non-stop puts you in Hyderabad before the morning rush; cabin-only baggage speeds the exit.
Families: a mid-morning flight is gentler with children; book seats together early during Puja and school holidays.
Students: the lowest fares are mid-week and off-festival on an LCC; only pay for hold baggage if you genuinely need it.
Kolkata (CCU): Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport runs a single integrated terminal for all domestic departures.
Hyderabad (HYD): Rajiv Gandhi International Airport also operates from one integrated terminal handling all domestic and international flights, so there is no terminal to choose at either end. It is a modern, easy-to-navigate airport about 30 km from the city.
Kolkata airport is in the north-east of the city; allow 45–75 minutes from central areas, more in peak traffic. Hyderabad's RGIA is roughly 30 km south of the city at Shamshabad — the airport is well linked by the Pushpak AC buses, app cabs and the Outer Ring Road, but the distance means you should budget 45–60 minutes to reach the city centre. Plan a buffer if you land in the evening rush.
Standard domestic economy is generally 15kg checked plus 7kg cabin, though the cheapest LCC buckets can be cabin-only — confirm before booking. Air India full-service fares usually include more. See the IndiGo baggage guide for current limits and excess charges, and weigh your bag at home to dodge airport fees.
Hyderabad has a relatively dry climate with pleasant winters (Nov–Feb) and hot summers (Apr–Jun); its rains come with the south-west monsoon from June to September but are usually less disruptive than coastal cities. Kolkata is hot and humid in summer and wet through the monsoon. Carry light clothing and a small buffer if you travel in either city's wet months.
Hyderabad's airport is about 30 km from the city, so a cheap late-evening fare can be a false economy once you add a long, surge-priced cab ride home. If you are weighing a slightly pricier earlier flight against a bargain night arrival, factor the airport-transfer cost and time into the comparison before you book.
A non-stop takes about 2h 10m airborne. One-stop options run roughly 4h 30m to 6h overall.
IndiGo, Air India, Air India Express and Akasa Air operate non-stop. Go First and Jet Airways have ceased operations, and Vistara has merged into Air India.
Roughly 12–16 non-stop departures a day, with the first around 5:20am and the last in the evening.
About 1,200 km by air.

Yes. Under DGCA rules, an airline cancellation entitles you to a full refund or an alternative flight, plus compensation in certain cases. If you cancel, refundability depends on your fare type.
Web check-in usually opens 48 hours before departure and closes 1–2 hours prior. Doing it early lets you choose a seat and skip the counter.
Most domestic economy fares include 15kg checked plus 7kg cabin, but the cheapest LCC fares can be cabin-only. Confirm before you pay.
Some airlines allow pets in cabin or cargo subject to weight, container and health rules. Policies vary, so arrange it directly with the carrier in advance.
Yes. Infants under two fly on an adult's lap at a reduced fare; carry age proof and add the infant when booking.
Both cities see the south-west monsoon (Jun–Sep), which can cause occasional delays from heavy rain. Hyderabad is usually less affected than coastal airports. Keep a buffer in these months.
Compare both. Airline sites sometimes match or beat OTA prices and make changes easier, while OTAs occasionally run promos. FlightGPT shows both so you can pick the genuine cheapest.
Mid-week mid-morning and afternoon departures are usually cheapest, and monsoon months away from festivals tend to have the lowest fares.
