Airlines flying Pune to Ajmer
Because Kishangarh (KQH) is a small regional airport with limited frequencies, no single carrier runs a daily non-stop from Pune. In practice you connect through a hub — IndiGo and Air India offer the widest 1-stop options via Delhi (DEL), while flights via Mumbai (BOM) are also common. Some travellers find it simpler to fly Pune → Jaipur (JAI) on IndiGo, Air India or SpiceJet and then drive the ≈ 135 km to Ajmer. Always check which carrier actually serves Kishangarh on your date, since the schedule there changes seasonally. Indicative fares are live on FlightGPT (fares as of May 2026); verify the official airline site before paying.
Cheapest time to fly & book
Fares on a 1-stop route like this swing with the connecting leg, so booking ≈ 3–6 weeks ahead usually beats last-minute prices. Mid-week departures (Tuesday and Wednesday) and early-morning or late-night connections tend to be lighter on the wallet than weekend flights. Demand around Ajmer spikes during the Urs festival at the dargah and the Pushkar fair, so avoid those windows if you want softer fares. If Kishangarh options look pricey, compare the Jaipur-plus-road combination — it is often cheaper and more frequent. Indicative fares are live on FlightGPT (fares as of May 2026); always verify live schedules.
Flight duration & routing
With a single stop, expect a total journey of ≈ 3h 30m to 5h depending on the layover and hub. The great-circle distance is ≈ 880 km, but the actual flown path is longer because you route via Delhi or Mumbai. A typical pattern is Pune → Delhi (≈ 2h) then Delhi → Kishangarh (≈ 1h 15m), plus connection time. If you instead fly into Jaipur, the air leg is ≈ 1h 45m non-stop followed by a ≈ 2h 30m road transfer. For pilgrims also looking east, compare our Delhi to Gaya flights guide. Confirm exact timings on the airline site.
Baggage & fares
On domestic Indian flights most carriers include ≈ 15 kg checked plus ≈ 7 kg cabin baggage on standard fares, while ultra-low base fares may carry hand baggage only — read the fare rules before you book. Because this is a connecting itinerary, check whether your bags are tagged through to Kishangarh or need re-checking at the hub, especially on separate tickets. Excess baggage, seat selection and meals are charged as add-ons. Indicative fares are live on FlightGPT (fares as of May 2026), and we show base, baggage and total side by side so there are no surprises. Always verify the airline's baggage policy for your specific fare class.
Airports & terminals
You depart from Pune Airport (PNQ), a single-terminal facility shared with the air force station, so reach ≈ 2 hours early as security can be slow. Your arrival point, Kishangarh Airport (KQH), is a compact airport ≈ 27 km from Ajmer and ≈ 11 km from Kishangarh town, with basic facilities and limited cabs — pre-book a taxi if you can. If you route via Jaipur instead, you land at Jaipur International (JAI) Terminal 2 and continue by road. Layovers at Delhi (DEL T1/T2/T3) or Mumbai (BOM T1/T2) may require a terminal change, so leave buffer time between connecting flights.
Documents needed / entry rules
This is a purely domestic journey within India, so no visa or passport is required. Carry one original government-issued photo ID — Aadhaar, driving licence, voter ID or passport — that matches the name on your ticket, for both the Pune and the connecting-hub security checks. Children travelling without ID can usually use a school ID or birth certificate; confirm the airline's policy. Keep a digital and printed copy of your itinerary for the second leg into Kishangarh. There are no special permits for Ajmer or Pushkar. Always verify current ID rules on the official airline and airport websites before you travel.
