There is no non-stop flight between Port Blair and Jaipur — the Andamans are joined to the mainland by air mainly through Kolkata and Chennai, with Delhi as a longer alternative — so every itinerary is a one-stop connection. The Port Blair leg is well served: Air India Express, Akasa Air, IndiGo and SpiceJet all fly Port Blair–Kolkata non-stop, with IndiGo offering several daily. From Kolkata (CCU) or Delhi (DEL) you then continue to Jaipur, where IndiGo and Air India are the main carriers.
Kolkata is the natural and usually fastest hub, because it is the principal Andaman gateway and Port Blair–Kolkata is a short, frequent hop. A Delhi connection can work too and sometimes lands you closer to Jaipur on the second leg, but the first leg is longer. Prefer a single through-ticket so your bag is checked to Jaipur and your onward seat protected; a self-transfer can be cheaper but puts the delay and re-check risk on you — a real concern given the Andaman weather and the long first leg.
The air distance is roughly 2,600 km, flown as two legs. Via Kolkata, the Port Blair–Kolkata hop is about 2h 20m, and Kolkata–Jaipur about 1h 45m; with a sensible layover the quickest itineraries total around 5–7 hours. A Delhi routing is broadly similar to a little longer depending on the wait. Both ends are on IST, so there is no time-zone maths.
As always on a connection, compare total elapsed time and the layover length rather than the fare alone. The Bay of Bengal crossing on the first leg is over open water, which is one reason the early-morning departures (better weather, more recovery time) are worth targeting.
The Andamans draw their crowds in the cool, dry season, and Jaipur is a winter tourism magnet too, so both ends peak together from October. Add the long, two-leg routing and the sensible move is to book four to eight weeks ahead for winter travel.
| Period | Demand | Fare tendency |
|---|---|---|
| Oct–Feb (peak season both ends; calm Andaman seas, cool Jaipur) | Very high | Firmest — book early |
| Mar–Apr (warming; shoulder) | Moderate | Often better value |
| May–Sep (monsoon; rough Andaman seas, hot then wet Jaipur) | Lower | Cheapest, weather risk |
| Diwali, Christmas–New Year | Extreme | Peak — secure well ahead |
We do not quote a rupee figure, as a long connecting fare across this much of the country swings with availability on both legs.
On a long two-leg route, structure and timing beat coupons:
Port Blair flights skew to the morning — partly because the airport historically favoured daytime operations and partly because morning weather over the Bay is steadier. A morning departure from IXZ is therefore both more reliable and gives you the best chance of a same-day onward connection at the hub with daylight to spare into Jaipur. Aim to land at Kolkata or Delhi with a comfortable buffer before the Jaipur leg; reaching the hub late risks an overnight, since you cannot simply hop back to the islands.
Business travellers are rare on this leisure-heavy route, but if you are one, take the morning Kolkata connection on a single ticket for reliability — the protection matters when the alternative is being stuck a day from your destination.
Families and holidaymakers — the core of this traffic — should book the winter peak well ahead, choose the shortest total journey, and pick a morning Port Blair departure to give the day's connection room to breathe. Carry entertainment and snacks for the layover.
Students and budget travellers can save by travelling in the March–April shoulder, when both the Andamans and Jaipur are still pleasant and fares ease off the winter peak.
Port Blair (IXZ) — Veer Savarkar International Airport has a single, recently rebuilt terminal serving the Andaman & Nicobar Islands. It is compact; arrive in good time and confirm your onward transport on arrival into Jaipur is sorted before you leave the islands' patchy connectivity.
Kolkata (CCU) or Delhi (DEL) — your hub. Kolkata has a single integrated terminal, so a through-ticket connection is straightforward; Delhi splits operations across T1/T2/T3 (Air India uses T3, IndiGo splits T1/T2), which matters only on a self-transfer, where there is no airside link between terminals.
Jaipur (JAI) — Jaipur International Airport has an integrated terminal handling domestic and international flights, about 10–13 km south-east of the Pink City. It is well organised with the usual facilities; the city is a quick drive away.
At Port Blair, taxis and a few app options cover the short run from the city and the jetties; arrange your airport transfer the night before, as supply is limited. At your hub, on a through-ticket you stay airside; on a self-transfer at Delhi, remember the terminals have no airside link, so a change of terminal means exiting and re-entering — budget time. At Jaipur, app cabs, prepaid taxis and autos are plentiful for the short hop into the city; traffic around the walled city is the main variable.
Domestic economy fares generally include 15 kg of check-in and one 7 kg cabin bag, though limits vary by airline and fare type. On a single through-ticket your bag is checked all the way to Jaipur; on a two-carrier self-transfer you re-check at the hub and each ticket's rules and fees apply to its own leg. If you are bringing back anything bought in the Andamans, note that certain shells, corals and marine products are protected and cannot be removed from the islands — keep souvenirs to permitted items. See IndiGo baggage for the carrier that flies much of this route.
The Andamans are at their best from October to May, with calm seas and clear water; the south-west monsoon (roughly May–September) brings rough seas and heavy rain that can disrupt the Port Blair leg and inter-island ferries. Jaipur is most comfortable from October to March and fiercely hot in May–June, so the shared sweet spot is the cool winter. Carry a light layer for the air-conditioned cabins and Jaipur's cool winter mornings, and confirm your onward island or city transport in advance, since connectivity at the Port Blair end is sparser than on the mainland.
Route via Kolkata and take a morning Port Blair departure — it is the most reliable combination on this long leg, with steadier Bay weather and the best onward connections. Book it as a single through-ticket so your bag rides all the way to Jaipur, and lock in the winter dates early; the Andaman seats and the Christmas–New Year fares both go fast.
No. There is no scheduled non-stop. Every booking is a one-stop connection, almost always via Kolkata, with Delhi as a longer alternative.
The quickest connection via Kolkata totals around 5–7 hours — roughly 2h 20m Port Blair–Kolkata, a layover, then about 1h 45m Kolkata–Jaipur. A Delhi routing is similar to a little longer.
Kolkata. It is the principal Andaman gateway with frequent Port Blair service, so it usually gives the fastest and cheapest total journey. Delhi works but the first leg is longer.
Air India Express, Akasa Air, IndiGo and SpiceJet serve Port Blair (mainly to Kolkata), and IndiGo and Air India dominate the onward Jaipur leg. Go First and Jet Airways are defunct; Vistara has merged into Air India.
Typically 15 kg check-in plus a 7 kg cabin bag on domestic economy, varying by airline and fare. On a through-ticket the bag goes all the way to Jaipur; on a self-transfer you re-check at the hub. See /airlines/indigo/baggage.
No. Certain shells, corals and marine products are legally protected and cannot be removed from the islands. Keep souvenirs to permitted items to avoid trouble at the airport.
Yes. DGCA rules entitle you to a full refund or a free alternate flight if the airline cancels, whatever your fare type. A single through-ticket keeps this simple; on a self-transfer each airline handles its own leg.
Yes, all carriers on this route offer web check-in, generally from 48 hours up to about an hour before departure. On a connection, check in for each leg of the itinerary.
It can. The south-west monsoon (roughly May–September) brings rough seas and heavy rain to the Andamans that can disrupt the Port Blair leg and inter-island ferries. Travel in the October–May window for the most reliable conditions.
Port Blair operations skew to daytime and morning weather over the Bay of Bengal is steadier, so a morning IXZ departure is more reliable and gives the day's onward connection room to absorb any delay.
Carriers permit pets in cabin or cargo on domestic flights with advance booking, a vet certificate and a fee. A long two-leg or two-carrier itinerary complicates pet travel considerably, so confirm the policy for each leg before booking.
Yes, infants under two travel on a lap fare with proof of age. On a long connection the layover is the main consideration — choose the shortest total journey via Kolkata and carry feeding and changing essentials.
Booking direct with the airline keeps changes, refunds and baggage queries simpler, which matters on a long, weather-exposed route. OTAs may show cheaper self-transfer combinations, but those put the connection risk on you.
Jaipur International Airport is about 10–13 km south-east of the Pink City — a short drive by app cab, prepaid taxi or auto. Traffic near the walled city is the main variable.
