Nanded to Bangalore flights — quick facts

The one non-stop out of NDC to Bengaluru

Nanded's link to Bangalore exists because Star Air restarted scheduled flying at the airport on 31 Mar, 2024, after a four-year gap. Flight S5 184 has been tracked through 2026 leaving Nanded in the late afternoon, roughly between 17:10 and 17:40, and landing at BLR between about 18:30 and 19:30. Timings are retimed every season, so treat those as a guide and check your ticket. Because one aircraft flies the rotation, a delay on the inbound leg from Bangalore carries straight into your departure. No other airline flies the pair non-stop. Compare the Star Air fare against one-stop options on FlightGPT, and buy from the airline or travel partner whose terms suit you.

Why students and IT workers use this route

Bangalore draws a steady stream of people from Nanded and the wider Marathwada region: engineering graduates heading to jobs in Whitefield and Electronic City, students at Bangalore colleges, and families visiting children who have settled in the city. Before the flight, the realistic choice was a train taking well over 15 hours or a long road trip through Bidar and Hyderabad. The late-afternoon departure suits someone who spends the morning at home or at Hazur Sahib and wants to be in Bangalore by dinner. It is less useful for a same-day business meeting in Bangalore, since you land in the evening. For return trips, see the Bangalore to Nanded guide, which covers the outbound timing and peak dates.

Checking in at Nanded Airport

Nanded Airport is small and quiet, with a single terminal and only a handful of departures a day across Star Air's network. That makes check-in quick, but the counters open and close on a fixed timetable, and staff will not hold the flight. Reach the airport at least 60 minutes before departure, and 90 minutes if you are checking in several bags. The ride from central Nanded or the Hazur Sahib area takes about 15–20 minutes by auto or taxi. Carry a printed or digital copy of your ticket for the entry gate check, plus an original photo ID such as Aadhaar, a driving licence or a passport. Food inside is limited to a small kiosk, so eat in town first. Web check-in on Star Air's site opens before departure and saves a queue.

Star Air cabin and luggage rules for NDC–BLR

On Star Air economy you may check in 15 kg and carry one 7 kg cabin bag no larger than 55 x 35 x 25 cm. Students moving to Bangalore with books, a pressure cooker and winter clothes often go over the limit; buying extra weight online at least four hours before departure is cheaper than paying at the Nanded counter. The Embraer jets have small overhead bins, so cabin trolleys may be gate-checked at the aircraft steps. Laptops and power banks must stay in the cabin. Pickles and ghee in sealed jars are usually fine in checked baggage if packed well, but liquids over 100 ml are not allowed in your cabin bag. Business seats on the E175, where offered, come with a larger allowance.

Landing at Kempegowda: getting into Bangalore

Kempegowda International Airport is at Devanahalli, roughly 35–40 km north of the city centre. An evening arrival from Nanded meets the outbound office traffic, so the drive to Koramangala, HSR Layout or Electronic City can take 90 minutes or more. Options from arrivals:

For north Bangalore suburbs such as Hebbal, Yelahanka or Manyata Tech Park, the trip is far shorter. Note your terminal on arrival, as BLR has two terminals and pick-up points differ.

Busy weeks for Nanded–Bangalore flights

The return flow to Bangalore peaks right after the festivals that bring people home. Expect the tightest seats in the days after Diwali, after the Ganesh festival in late August or September, and on the Sunday and Monday that end long weekends. College reopening in June and July sends students back with full luggage. Because the flight uses a 50- or 76-seat regional jet, those dates can sell out rather than just get dearer. The quietest periods are usually mid-week outside school holidays. When you have dates, search the route on FlightGPT to compare Star Air with one-stop alternatives, and remember that any fare you see is a partner quote that can change at any time.

Backup plans when NDC–BLR is cancelled

With a single daily rotation, a technical delay or weather can leave you without a flight. The usual fallback is to reach Hyderabad, about 250 km south-east by road, and fly to Bangalore from there, where there are dozens of departures a day. Star Air also flies Nanded to Hyderabad and Mumbai on its own network on some days, which can be quicker than the road. Trains from Nanded to Bengaluru run overnight on several days of the week and are a dependable plan B for a family with heavy bags. If you hold a separately booked onward flight from Bangalore, leave a buffer of at least three hours, or book through tickets wherever possible so the airline must rebook you.
