Rajkot's Hirasar International Airport (RAJ) has no direct service to Dubai International (DXB). The two practical paths are: (1) fly IndiGo or Air India RAJ–BOM (≈ 1h 10m), then connect to Emirates, Air India or flydubai for the 3h 30m BOM–DXB leg; or (2) take a feeder to Ahmedabad (AMD) (≈ 50m by air, or even by road if timing allows) and connect onto Emirates, Air India or IndiGo's AMD–DXB service. The BOM routing typically offers more frequency and shorter layovers. Overall elapsed time is generally 6–7 hours via BOM and 7–8 hours via AMD when layovers are included.
Indicative economy round-trip fares on the Rajkot–Dubai corridor (as of June 2026) range from ₹28,000 to ₹52,000, driven mainly by what you pay on the BOM–DXB leg. Emirates economy is typically pricier (₹35,000–₹55,000 return all-in from BOM) but includes 30 kg baggage; IndiGo codeshares and flydubai are leaner but often cheaper at ₹26,000–₹40,000. Fares spike around Diwali, Navratri, and Eid breaks when Gujarati families travel in bulk. The sweet spot for booking is 6–10 weeks ahead; January–February and June offer the most competitive windows.
The RAJ–BOM sector takes ≈ 1h 10m; the BOM–DXB hop is ≈ 3h 30m non-stop, totalling ≈ 4h 40m of flying. Factor in a minimum 90-minute connecting buffer at BOM for international check-in, and actual door-to-door time is typically 6–7 hours. Via AMD the feeder is ≈ 50–60m and the AMD–DXB leg is ≈ 3h 15m; layovers at AMD can be shorter but frequency is lower. Dubai operates on UAE time (UTC+4), sitting 1h 30m behind IST — a RAJ morning departure at 07:00 delivering you into DXB by mid-afternoon Dubai time is realistic.
Baggage rules vary by carrier and by segment. Emirates Economy allows 30 kg checked baggage, which is generous for Gulf travel. Air India Economy typically offers 25 kg. IndiGo on the domestic feeder allows 15 kg as standard (as of June 2026); excess is charged at ₹500–₹1,500 per kg at the airport. If you book on separate tickets, each carrier calculates its own allowance — you will need to collect and re-check bags at BOM. Emirates flights out of BOM use Terminal 2 at Dubai DXB; Air India and IndiGo-operated Dubai services land at DXB T3. Hand luggage on both Emirates and Air India is typically 7 kg cabin-bag + laptop bag.
Rajkot Hirasar International Airport (RAJ) is a relatively new facility located ≈ 30 km north-east of Rajkot city on the Ahmedabad highway. It replaced the old Civil Airport in the city. GSRTC buses connect the airport to central Rajkot; app cabs and prepaid taxis are available but the route is suburban — budget 45–60 minutes to the city. For the feeder to BOM or AMD, plan to arrive at RAJ at least 2 hours before departure. The terminal is well-lit and air-conditioned with basic F&B and a small retail zone.
Indian passport holders require a UAE visa before arrival at Dubai — there is no free visa-on-arrival for Indians with an ordinary passport. The standard option is a pre-arranged UAE eVisa (30-day tourist entry), processed through Emirates, Air Arabia, flydubai or a licensed agent; cost is typically AED 250–350 (~₹5,800–₹8,000) including service fees. Alternatively, Indians who hold a valid US, UK or Schengen visa (or residency) are eligible for a visa-on-arrival at DXB — valid 14 days, renewable once. Always confirm current eligibility at /visas before booking, as UAE visa rules have changed multiple times in recent years.
Dubai's most comfortable season is November to March, when daytime temperatures sit at 22–28 °C — perfect for outdoor souqs, desert safaris and the Burj Khalifa viewing deck. April and October are shoulder months: warmer but manageable. Summers (May–September) exceed 40 °C outdoors; shopping malls and indoor attractions remain pleasant but outdoor activity is limited. Ramadan brings a unique cultural atmosphere — many restaurants close during daylight but the city has a festive nightlife after Iftar. The Dubai Shopping Festival (January) and Dubai Expo legacies in Q1 attract significant visitor numbers.
No — there is currently no non-stop service. The standard 1-stop route goes via Mumbai (BOM) or Ahmedabad (AMD), with total travel time of ≈ 6–8 hours.
You will combine two carriers: IndiGo or Air India on the RAJ feeder leg, then Emirates, Air India, flydubai or IndiGo on the Dubai sector from BOM or AMD.
Indicative round-trip fares as of June 2026 are ≈ ₹28,000–₹52,000 economy. Emirates all-in from BOM tends to be ₹35,000–₹55,000; IndiGo/flydubai options start lower at ≈ ₹26,000.
Yes — Indians need a UAE eVisa (≈ AED 250–350, ~₹5,800–₹8,000) arranged before travel, or a visa-on-arrival if they hold a valid US, UK or Schengen visa. Confirm at /visas.
January–February and June tend to offer the lowest fares on this corridor. Avoid Navratri (October), Diwali, and Eid periods when prices spike 30–50 %.
