IndiGo provides the bulk of capacity between Lucknow and Guwahati, with a mix of non-stop and 1-stop services routing through Kolkata (CCU) or Delhi (DEL). Air India also connects the cities, primarily via Delhi. Non-stop flights take ≈ 2h 15m; connecting itineraries run ≈ 4–5h total. Seat availability tightens during the Bihu festival period and the autumn tourism season in the northeast.
Peak fares coincide with Bihu festivals (mid-April and mid-January) and the October–November tourist rush in Meghalaya, Assam, and Arunachal. The monsoon period (June–August) sees lower demand and cheaper tickets, though heavy rain can occasionally disrupt schedules. Booking ≈ 4–6 weeks in advance and choosing midweek departures will generally yield the lowest prices on this corridor.
Non-stop flights cover ≈ 1,200 km in roughly 2h 15m. The more common 1-stop itineraries route through Kolkata or Delhi, adding a 1–2h layover for a total of ≈ 4–5h. If connecting via Delhi, note that IndiGo uses T1 while Air India uses T3 — verify your terminal to avoid a last-minute dash. The Kolkata connection is often quicker given the shorter detour.
IndiGo and SpiceJet include 15 kg checked baggage in standard economy; Air India allows 25 kg. Cabin baggage is 7 kg universally. If you're heading onward to smaller northeast airports (Dimapur, Imphal, Shillong helicopter), pack light as feeder aircraft have stricter weight limits.
