Surat (STV) to Bengaluru (BLR) is served non-stop by IndiGo and Air India Express. Between them they run roughly two to three non-stop departures a day, though the exact count moves with the season and the schedule cycle. IndiGo tends to anchor the route; Air India Express adds capacity on its Boeing 737 fleet.
If a non-stop time does not suit you, both carriers — along with Air India and Akasa Air — sell convenient 1-stop itineraries connecting through Mumbai, Hyderabad or Delhi. Note that Go First and Jet Airways no longer operate, and Vistara has merged into Air India, so ignore any older listings showing those names.
The direct hop covers about 1,042 km and is scheduled at roughly 1h 55m gate to gate; the northbound return (Bengaluru to Surat) is sometimes blocked a touch longer at around 2h 10m because of winds. A 1-stop routing through Mumbai or Hyderabad typically pushes total journey time to 4–7 hours once you add the layover, so the non-stop is worth chasing if your dates allow.
Surat–Bengaluru is a business-leaning route, so fares firm up close to departure. Booking 3–6 weeks ahead usually lands the best balance of price and choice. Demand peaks around Diwali, the December break and the summer holidays.
| Period | Demand | Fare trend |
|---|---|---|
| Apr–Jun (summer holidays) | High | Above average |
| Jul–Sep (monsoon) | Moderate | Softer — good value |
| Oct–Nov (festive) | Very high | Peak around Diwali |
| Dec (year-end) | High | Above average |
| Jan–Mar | Moderate | Often the cheapest window |
A few practical levers: be flexible by a day or two, since mid-week (Tuesday/Wednesday) departures are usually cheaper than Friday or Sunday; travel light and skip the checked-bag add-on if you only have cabin baggage; and compare the fare an airline shows on its own site against the all-in price (after convenience fees) on an aggregator. Clearing fare alerts a couple of weeks out often catches a dip.
Early-morning and late-evening slots are the workhorses on this pairing — handy for a same-day business turn into Bengaluru's tech corridor. Mid-day departures, where available, can occasionally be cheaper because they are less popular. Bengaluru's traffic is notorious, so build in extra time from BLR to the city whatever your arrival hour.
Business: take the non-stop and pick a fare with free date-change flexibility if your plans can move. Families: the 1h 55m non-stop is comfortable for children; book seats together early as low fares often come with paid seat selection. Students: the monsoon and Jan–Mar windows tend to be kindest on price — set a fare alert and keep to cabin-only baggage to hold the cost down.
Surat (STV) is a single-terminal airport, so check-in and security are quick — arrive about 2 hours before a domestic departure. Bengaluru Kempegowda (BLR) has two terminals: most low-cost domestic flights use T1, while selected services (and Air India) use the newer T2. Your boarding pass states the terminal — confirm it before you set off, as T1 and T2 are a shuttle ride apart.
Surat airport sits at Dumas, around 12–15 km from the city centre; an auto or cab takes 30–40 minutes in normal traffic. At Bengaluru, BLR is about 35–40 km north of the centre — the airport is well served by the BMTC Vayu Vajra (KIA) AC buses, app cabs and the airport taxi counter. Allow 60–90 minutes into the city, more in peak-hour traffic.
On domestic economy you typically get 15 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin, but the exact figure depends on your fare type — the cheapest 'lite' fares can carry less or charge for the hold bag. Check the rules on your ticket before flying. See IndiGo baggage for the current allowances and excess-bag charges.
Bengaluru enjoys a mild climate year-round, so light layers work in most months. The southwest monsoon (June–September) brings rain to both cities and the odd weather delay — keep some buffer if you have an onward connection. Surat can be hot and humid April–June. Web check-in opens 48 hours before departure on most carriers; do it to skip the airport counter queue.
Because Surat–Bengaluru runs only a couple of non-stops a day, those seats sell first and their price climbs hardest near departure. If your travel is fixed, book the non-stop early rather than waiting for a fare drop that rarely comes on a thin route. If your dates are flexible, compare a non-stop against a Hyderabad or Mumbai connection — sometimes the 1-stop is materially cheaper and only an hour or two longer.
Yes. IndiGo and Air India Express operate non-stop flights, roughly two to three departures a day between them. Frequency varies with the season, so check live schedules for your travel date.
The non-stop is scheduled at about 1h 55m. A 1-stop routing via Mumbai or Hyderabad typically takes 4–7 hours in total once the layover is included.
IndiGo and Air India Express fly non-stop. Air India and Akasa Air also sell 1-stop connections. Go First and Jet Airways have ceased operations, and Vistara has merged into Air India.

Most low-cost domestic flights use Terminal 1 (T1); selected services and Air India use Terminal 2 (T2). Your boarding pass shows the terminal — confirm before you travel as the two are a shuttle ride apart.
Booking 3–6 weeks ahead usually gives the best fares. The monsoon months (Jul–Sep) and Jan–Mar tend to be the cheapest windows; festive season and the summer holidays are dearest.
Domestic economy is typically 15 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin, but the lowest 'lite' fares may carry less. Check your fare's rules and see our IndiGo baggage page for current limits.
Yes. Web check-in opens 48 hours before departure on most carriers and is the quickest way to choose a seat and skip the counter queue.
Yes. Under DGCA rules, if the airline cancels your flight you are entitled to a full refund (including taxes and fees) or a free alternative flight. If you cancel, the airline may keep a cancellation fee but must refund statutory taxes on unused tickets.
The June–September monsoon can bring rain and the occasional delay at both ends. Build in buffer time if you have an onward connection, and keep an eye on your flight status during heavy-rain spells.
Yes. Children under 2 can travel as a lap infant on a heavily discounted infant fare; you cannot book a separate seat for them at that fare. Carry the child's age proof.
Pet policies vary by airline and many low-cost carriers do not accept pets in the cabin or hold on domestic sectors. Check directly with your airline well before booking, as space and paperwork are required.
Prices are usually similar, but the airline's own site shows the all-in fare without OTA convenience fees and makes changes and refunds simpler. FlightGPT compares both so you can see the real total before you book.
Aim to arrive about 2 hours before a domestic departure. Surat is a single-terminal airport, so security and check-in are generally quick outside peak times.
