Rajkot Airport (RAJ) has a growing domestic network but no Kolkata service as of June 2026. The two main connection points are Mumbai (BOM) — ≈ 1h 15m from Rajkot — and Ahmedabad (AMD) — ≈ 45 minutes. From Mumbai, IndiGo and Air India operate frequent BOM–CCU flights in ≈ 2h 30m. The Ahmedabad connection is marginally shorter in domestic flying time but AMD–CCU services, while available, are less frequent than BOM–CCU. IndiGo ties both routings well; Air India's Mumbai hub typically offers the smoothest checked-baggage transfer under a single PNR. Aim for a minimum 90-minute layover to cover any domestic delay.
Combined Rajkot–Kolkata one-way fares in economy typically fall in the ₹6,500–₹16,000 range depending on airline, routing, and lead time (as of June 2026). The cheapest windows are early January–February and June–July when both Saurashtra and Kolkata travel demand softens. Durga Puja (October) and Diwali dramatically increase CCU-bound fares — sometimes doubling them — as Bengalis across India travel home. Booking 4–6 weeks ahead on a single itinerary (RAJ–BOM–CCU) balances price and misconnect protection. Split-ticket bookings save ₹1,000–₹3,000 but leave you liable for rebooking costs if the Rajkot departure is late.
Rajkot Airport (RAJ) is a modernised domestic terminal that underwent expansion in 2023. It handles routes to Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Bangalore, and Hyderabad. The terminal is small and efficient — check-in counters, security, and gates are all within a few minutes' walk. Arriving 75 minutes before departure is comfortable for domestic travel. Rajkot city centre is ≈ 5 km away; auto-rickshaws, Ola, and Uber are available. The airport does not currently have a metro connection. Food options inside the terminal are limited, so eating before you arrive is advisable for early morning departures.
Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport (CCU) is located in Dum Dum, ≈ 17 km from central Kolkata. The integrated terminal (T2) handles all domestic and international traffic under one roof. Kolkata Metro's Airport line (Orange Line) now connects the airport directly to Park Street and Esplanade via New Garia; travel time to central Kolkata is ≈ 45–55 minutes at ₹25–₹35. Pre-paid taxis and app cabs are readily available; expect ₹400–₹700 to Park Street and ₹700–₹1,000 to south Kolkata. The Yellow Cab pre-paid counter inside the terminal is reliable and metered.
Kolkata — the City of Joy — offers an immersive blend of colonial architecture, intellectual culture, and extraordinary food. The Victoria Memorial, Howrah Bridge, Dakshineswar Kali Temple, and the Indian Museum are among the must-visits. The Maidan (the vast open ground in the city's heart) is perfect for an early morning walk. For food, Rajkot travellers will find plenty of vegetarian options at Kolkata's Jain and Marwari-friendly eateries in the Burrabazar and Park Street areas. Bengali sweets — sandesh, rasgulla, mishti doi — are world-famous and available at confectionary shops citywide.
