There is no non-stop flight from Rajkot to Jaipur. Rajkot's newer Hirasar airport (RAJ/HSR) flies direct only to a handful of cities — Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune — and Jaipur is not among them. To reach Jaipur you connect through a hub, most practically Mumbai (BOM) or Delhi (DEL), both of which have frequent onward flights to Jaipur. IndiGo (6E) and Air India (AI) serve both the feeder and trunk legs, so a single-ticket connection is usually available. Be wary of listings that show a low "direct" duration — on this route that figure is the total connecting time, not a non-stop.
Rajkot and Jaipur are about 870 km apart, but with no direct service the real journey runs 4h 30m to 7h including the layover. Via Mumbai, you fly a ≈ 1h 30m Rajkot–Mumbai leg, connect, then take a ≈ 1h 45m Mumbai–Jaipur sector. Via Delhi, the Rajkot–Delhi leg is ≈ 1h 50m and Delhi–Jaipur a short ≈ 1h hop. Both cities are on Indian Standard Time, so there is no clock change. The deciding factor is the layover — a tight Mumbai connection can be quick, but leave a comfortable buffer, particularly if your bags are not checked through.
Saurashtra's business and pilgrimage traffic feeds Rajkot, while Jaipur draws heavy tourism in the cooler months. As every fare is a connection, the total tracks the price of the busy Mumbai–Jaipur or Delhi–Jaipur trunk leg.
| Period | Demand for Jaipur | Fare pressure |
|---|---|---|
| October–March (peak tourist season) | Very high | Firmer |
| April–June (hot) | Lower | Cheaper |
| Monsoon (Jul–Sep) | Moderate | Mid |
Jaipur fares spike during the winter wedding and festival season and events like the Literature Festival (January). Book two to four weeks ahead and compare the Mumbai and Delhi routings.
On a 1-stop route the win is in the hub choice and the lead time. Compare the total via Mumbai and via Delhi — Delhi–Jaipur is a very short, competitively priced hop, which sometimes makes the Delhi routing cheaper despite the longer first leg. Book the whole journey on a single ticket to protect the connection and keep one baggage allowance. Mid-week travel and a two-to-four-week lead help, and travelling cabin-bag-only on low-cost legs avoids checked-bag fees. Avoid Jaipur's January and winter-wedding peaks if your dates are flexible.
Hirasar has a limited daily schedule, so plan around its departure times. A morning feeder leg connects onward the same day with daylight to spare and leaves a buffer if the first flight slips. Avoid booking the last connection of the day, where a delay can mean an unplanned overnight at Mumbai or Delhi. For Jaipur, an afternoon or early-evening arrival gives an easy transfer into the Pink City before night — handy if you are heading to the old-city hotels around the City Palace and Hawa Mahal.
Business travellers from Rajkot's industrial belt should book the connection on one ticket and favour whichever hub gives the earliest, most reliable onward flight. Families and tourists bound for Jaipur should book well ahead for the October–March peak, choose daytime legs, and consider the Delhi routing for its short final hop. Students and budget travellers save by comparing both hubs, travelling mid-week with cabin baggage only. On any connecting journey, a slightly longer but comfortable layover beats a rock-bottom fare with a risky 40-minute connection.
Rajkot (RAJ/HSR) — the new Rajkot International Airport at Hirasar, about 30 km from the city on the Ahmedabad highway, replaced the old in-city airport and has a single modern terminal. Jaipur (JAI) — Jaipur International Airport at Sanganer, about 13 km south of the city, runs domestic and international flights from a single integrated complex (Terminal 2 is the main passenger terminal). At your connecting hub — Mumbai or Delhi — check whether your two flights use the same terminal, as Mumbai's T1/T2 split or Delhi's T1/T3 split can add transfer time.
Hirasar is about 30 km from Rajkot city on the Rajkot–Ahmedabad highway; allow 45–60 minutes by taxi or app cab, and leave early as it is well outside town. At Jaipur, the airport is only about 13 km south of the centre; pre-paid taxis and app cabs reach the Pink City's old-city hotels and MI Road in 25–40 minutes, and the airport bus and autos are cheaper alternatives. Factor in the inter-terminal transfer time at your connecting hub, especially at Mumbai where domestic low-cost and full-service flights split between T1 and T2.
On the low-cost legs, IndiGo includes 15 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin in standard economy; full-service Air India typically allows 25 kg. On a connecting journey, booking the whole trip on one ticket keeps a single, through-checked allowance; stitching two separate fares means the most restrictive rule applies and you re-check bags at the hub. See the carrier rules on the IndiGo baggage and Air India baggage guides, and pre-pay any excess online, which is far cheaper than the airport counter.
Rajkot is hot and dry for most of the year, with a humid monsoon (June–September). Jaipur has very hot summers (April–June, often above 42°C), a monsoon (July–September) and a pleasant, busy winter (October–March) that can bring December–January morning fog — which may delay flights at Jaipur or the Delhi hub. October to March is the comfortable window at both ends and the best time to see Jaipur. As this is a connecting trip, keep essentials in your cabin bag and build buffer time around the layover.
Do not be misled by booking sites showing a short "direct" time for Rajkot–Jaipur — there is no non-stop, because Hirasar does not fly to Jaipur. The smart play is to book a single-ticket connection via Mumbai or Delhi; the Delhi routing often wins thanks to the very short Delhi–Jaipur hop. Favour a morning feeder leg with a comfortable layover, and book two to four weeks ahead for Jaipur's busy winter season. Use FlightGPT to compare both hubs at once.
No. Rajkot's Hirasar airport flies direct only to Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune - Jaipur is not a non-stop destination. You connect through a hub, most practically Mumbai or Delhi, with a total journey of about 4h 30m to 7h.
About 4h 30m to 7h in total, including the layover. Via Delhi the final Delhi-Jaipur leg is a short ≈ 1h hop; via Mumbai it is ≈ 1h 45m. Both cities are on IST, so there is no time change to plan around.
IndiGo and Air India serve both the feeder leg out of Rajkot and the onward trunk leg to Jaipur, so a single-ticket connection is usually available via Mumbai or Delhi. No airline flies the route non-stop.
Rajkot's Hirasar airport has a limited route map - direct only to Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune. Demand on the specific Rajkot-Jaipur city pair is modest, so airlines route the traffic through their larger hubs instead.
Delhi often works out cheapest and quickest overall because the Delhi-Jaipur leg is a very short hop, despite a slightly longer first leg. Mumbai is the alternative with frequent onward flights. Compare both for your dates.
Jaipur International (JAI) at Sanganer runs domestic and international flights from a single integrated complex, with Terminal 2 as the main passenger terminal, about 13 km south of the city centre.
On a single-ticket connection, IndiGo includes 15 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin and Air India typically 25 kg, with bags checked through. On two separate fares the most restrictive rule applies and you re-check bags at the hub.
Only a valid government photo ID (Aadhaar, passport, driving licence, voter ID or PAN) matching your ticket - this is a domestic journey, so no visa is required. Children should carry a school ID or birth certificate.
Yes. On a single-ticket booking you can usually web check-in for both legs from 48 hours before departure. On separate tickets you check in for each flight and collect and re-check your bags at the connecting airport.
Yes. Winter morning fog (December-January) can delay flights at Jaipur and the Delhi hub, while the monsoon (July-September) brings heavy rain at the hubs. Build buffer time into your layover during these windows.
The hot months of April to June and the monsoon are usually cheapest. Jaipur's October-March tourist season - especially the winter wedding period and January events - pushes fares up. Book two to four weeks ahead.
Infants under two travel on a parent's lap at a reduced fare on both legs; carry a birth certificate. Air India carries pets with prior arrangement and a health certificate, while IndiGo does not carry pets in the cabin - confirm for each operating carrier.
For a connecting route, what matters is getting one through-ticket so your connection is protected. Book direct with the airline or via an OTA that issues a single ticket, and compare the total including baggage rather than the lead fare.
Under DGCA rules, if the airline cancels a flight you are entitled to a full refund of the affected sector including taxes, or rebooking. On a single ticket, a missed connection caused by a delayed first leg is the airline's responsibility to re-accommodate.
