Delhi Flights

To the uninitiated, Delhi may appear to be disorganized, congested, and downright daunting. It is important to remember, however, that first appearances can be deceptive.
Although this ancient city is certainly busy, it is also filled with enough warm citizens, rich culture, and amazing historical value that it has quickly become a spot where tourists come again and again.
Finding cheap flights to Delhi is easy, which is important, as you will want to spend your money on the fantastic cuisine at Bengali Market, the unique wares at Connaught Place, and the cultural delights of the Crafts Museum.

Best time to travel to Delhi

Peak Season:

Visitors love the months of November through to March, as this period is pleasantly cool and mild. Considering the climate, this is an excellent time to see one of the many outdoor attractions and celebrations, such as the India Gate and the Iron Pillar, the Lohri festival in January at the Holi festival in March.

Shoulder Season:

The prices of accommodation and flights to Delhi drop in October and September. Tourists thin out during these months, making them great for visiting such popular spots as the Qutub complex, Nehru Park, and Swaminarayan Akshardham Temple. These months are also excellent for mingling with other stray tourists and locals at the Aap ki Pasand Tea Shop or Shalom Med Lounge Bar.

Off Season:

Flights are at their cheapest from April to August, as most tourists prefer to stay away from the city in order to avoid the extreme heat. If your itinerary consists of mostly indoor activities, this is a good time to visit, as such attractions as the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art and Dhyan Foundation are far less crowded.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Delhi?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Delhi could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Delhi?
It's all about being organised. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Delhi, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
