Looking for cheap flights from Trivandrum to Vijayawada? FlightGPT compares live TRV to VGA fares across every connected source — Indian carriers, Gulf hubs, OTAs and trusted travel agents — and shows the cheapest options side by side.

No carrier flies TRV–VGA without a stop, so you will book a connecting itinerary. IndiGo (6E) offers the widest set, typically routing through Chennai (MAA), Hyderabad (HYD) or Bengaluru (BLR). Air India (AI) can build a connection via Bengaluru or Hyderabad. Keep the trip on one PNR so your bag is tagged through to Vijayawada and you are protected if the first leg slips — Gannavaram has limited daily flights, so recovery options are thinner than at a metro.
Hyderabad and Chennai are the most efficient hubs given short onward hops into Vijayawada. A typical build is a 1h 15m–1h 45m first leg, a 60–150 minute layover, then a 50–75 minute sector into VGA. Total elapsed time runs about 3h 30m on a tight connection to 5h 30m with a longer wait. Because this is a shorter overall journey than most TRV connecting pairs, even a modest 70–90 minute layover usually keeps the whole trip comfortably under five hours.
Vijayawada International Airport (VGA) sits at Gannavaram, about 20 km northeast of the city centre — a 35–50 minute drive depending on traffic. App cabs, prepaid taxis and APSRTC buses serve arrivals. The airport is also a convenient gateway to Amaravati and Guntur, each within an hour or two by road. The terminal is mid-sized and modern. Travellers planning the return trip can see Vijayawada to Trivandrum flights for connecting options.
Most economy fares include 7 kg cabin and 15 kg check-in; confirm the check-in piece on the cheapest bucket since some are cabin-only. As a mid-length connecting route, economy one-way fares typically run ₹5,500–₹11,000 depending on season, airline and lead time. Booking 3–5 weeks ahead generally keeps you in the lower half of that range. Demand rises around Sankranti and the year-end holidays, when fares from Kerala into coastal Andhra firm up noticeably.
Coastal Andhra is most comfortable from November to February, overlapping the busy Sankranti season in January when Vijayawada-bound demand and fares peak. The cheapest fares usually appear in February–March and the monsoon weeks of July–August. Summer (April–June) is hot and humid but inexpensive. Flexible travellers can save by avoiding Friday and Sunday departures and the Sankranti fortnight, since those drive up both hub-leg and onward fares.
Vijayawada, on the banks of the Krishna river, is a major trade and education hub and the gateway to the planned capital region of Amaravati. Visitors come for the hilltop Kanaka Durga Temple, the Prakasam Barrage and the nearby Undavalli rock-cut caves. The city is also a launchpad for Krishna-delta pilgrimages and the Buddhist sites around Amaravati. Steady student and business movement between Kerala and coastal Andhra keeps this connecting route in consistent demand year-round.
Carry one valid government photo ID — Aadhaar, driving licence or passport — matching your booking; no visa is needed for domestic travel. Complete web check-in for each leg as soon as it opens (usually 48 hours before) so you hold boarding passes for both sectors. DigiYatra is optional but speeds entry where enabled at TRV, the hub and VGA. On a connecting day, reach Trivandrum airport about 2 hours before departure to clear security comfortably and protect your onward connection.
No, there is no non-stop service. Flights connect 1-stop via Chennai, Hyderabad or Bengaluru, with total travel time typically between 3 hours 30 minutes and 5 hours 30 minutes.
The straight-line distance is about 989 km. With a hub connection you fly further, so plan for roughly 3h 30m–5h 30m of total elapsed time including the layover.
Economy one-way fares typically range ₹5,500–₹11,000 depending on season and lead time. Booking 3–5 weeks ahead usually lands fares near ₹5,500–₹7,500, while Sankranti weeks push the top.
Vijayawada International Airport at Gannavaram is about 20 km from the city centre, roughly a 35–50 minute cab ride. App cabs, prepaid taxis and buses serve arrivals.
Hyderabad and Chennai are most efficient, with onward hops of 50–75 minutes into Vijayawada. A layover of 70–90 minutes usually keeps the whole trip under five hours.
Only one government photo ID such as Aadhaar, a driving licence or passport — no visa for domestic travel. Arrive about 2 hours before departure and web check-in within 48 hours of each leg.

There is currently no non-stop service between Trivandrum and Vijayawada — itineraries connect via a hub, with a typical journey of ≈ 3h 30m–5h 30m (1-stop via Chennai/Hyderabad/Bengaluru).
