Port Blair airport is NOT an international airport. There are ONLY domestic flights to port blair available from Chennai and Kolkatta. Only From Chennai / Kolkatta International flights are available.

Thank goodness, Port Blair is still unravaged by international flights. But there was talk a couple of years ago of charter flights starting up from Bangkok...

According to Andaman tourism website, Foreign tourist charter flights are also permitted to land at Port Blair subject to the fulfillment of guidelines of the Director General of Civil Aviation, Govt. of India.

Till date there is no immediate plan by any airlines to operate international flights.
By the way anybody can charter a flight to any civilian airport in the world with prior approval of the respective airport authority.
