Volvo buses from Manali reaches by 4-6 AM(Not sure exact time)
Is there any shortcuts likw while i come back from Manali i can take to reach airport directly

It would be very difficult if you start at 6.00 AM. You have to hope your bus reaches before 6.00 am else your flight is delayed.

I'm taking the YYZ-DEL 9W flight (arriving at about 9:40pm) in a few weeks, and have an IT flight to JAI at 6:00am the following morning. I will have to collect my luggage and recheck the bags for the onward flight (they are bought on separate tickets). Will I be able to stay somewhere in the airport during that time, and given that I will have four pieces of luggage in total, what's the best option? A Jet Airways agent told me the trip time to the 1D terminal from the international terminal takes about 15 minutes via the shuttle bus, is that accurate? Thanks for any help you can provide.

The easiest way to go to the right place is to say specify where you want to go (the cab drivers & most people here will NOT be able to understand the terminal numbers) . If you want to go to the International airport - say you want to go to International airport.

In the domestic airport, there is one arrival building. However, the confusion lies in there being TWO departure terminals: One is exclusively for Indian Airlines flights. The other departure terminal, is next to the arrival terminal - and all private airlines domestic flights leave from here. So, tell the cab diver: Indian airlines departure terminal Or, private airlines departure teminal.

any questions?

is it best to buy a ticket to goa on arrival in delhi or before online? as i have been told that booking in advance in risky dut to indian domestic airlines can do what they like!

It is much cheaper to book 30 days in advance.

Probably that's not so cool....

1 month or 2 days before flying date, fares are same

Best is take a Pre-paid Auto from Delhi-police booth. It will cost you 120-130, and you will reach there in 50mts to 1hr. depends on the Traffice. Make a Exit from Platform to Paharganj Side. It will save your time.

gaurav1441 · Sep 24th, 2009, 22:02

You have ample time. Get dwon to the Ajmeri gate side. Take a Metro to ISBT. From ISBT there are regular DTC buses to Airport which wold cost about Rs 50.

Well there are two seasons and then there is a Plan and a ad-hoc travel. What you are referring is an exception and not a general gule.
