By air the trip is 488 km, which works out to about 1h 05m in the air and on the ground at each end. Use it as a guide, not a schedule — the airline's published block time is what to plan around. No clock change: Varanasi and Durgapur are both on IST.

Varanasi's airport (VNS) — what to know

Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport (VNS) serves Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh. Expect about 21 km between the airport and Varanasi in a straight line.

Busy dates to plan around on this route

Fares on this route follow demand at both ends. In Uttar Pradesh, watch Diwali, Chhath and the winter wedding season; in West Bengal, Durga Puja in Sep–Oct. Long weekends and school holidays push prices up too. On thin routes with only a few flights, the cheapest seats go first, so booking a few weeks ahead usually beats waiting for a last-minute drop.

Other ways to reach Durgapur from Varanasi

If the non-stop is full or the timing doesn't suit, Varanasi and Durgapur are both connected to Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad, so a one-stop routing through one of those cities is possible. Book it as a single ticket where you can, so the airline is responsible for the connection if the first flight is late, and leave at least 90 minutes between flights at a large hub.
