We need to get a flight from Delhi to Bagdogra on the morning of 22nd of December and then train on to NJP, Darjeeling and so on..

We have not booked the flights yet but is it cheaper to book flights using local agents after we land? and if so some contacts for reputable agents in Delhi might be handy. I am wary of the touts and am keen to avoid them.

We are trying to have only carry-on/hand baggage but want to know if it is ok that we will have small containers of liquids ( meeting European regulations of less than 100ml and in sealed clear ziplock bags).

Kingfisher has told me this is not allowed and they will have to be checked but as a connecting passenger is this a big deal? I have tried to read other posts about this but many are quite old (2005) and it's hard to find current information!

Also we have rechargeable camera batteries that look like double AA- is this going to be a problem? We have read that lithium (square) batteries are ok but not drycell type AA's etc.

Blore 930- Delhi 1200 dep 1310 Chandigarh arr. 1400 by Air India IC 11,932 (4:30)

Blore 1130- Mumbai 1310 dep 1425 Chandigarh arr. 1655 by Kingfisher 12,586 Rs (5:25)

Does Kingfisher has the better reputation? Their connection takes a little longer and is slightly more expensive.

I just checked the web and I'm afraid we may miss the connection at Delhi or Mumbai.

i looked on kayak.co.uk and found the flights i want, but they are £30 cheaper on kayak.co.in and cleartrip.com. i was just wondering why this was, especially as kayak is the same company. i also know that there's extra fees for non indian travelers, so i didn't know if i would come into trouble for using the indian sites.
is it just because they hope people dont know about the indian ones, or am i missing something!?

Is this enough time to make it over on the shuttle? We also have the option of changing the flight to Mumbai to 06:00, but if we can make it I'd rather not spend an extra 2hrs in transit.
