Varanasi to Bangalore

FerryPhoto · Feb 13th, 2008, 10:49

Hi There,

We need to get from Varanasi to Bangalore on the 24th of May, or rather we need to be in Bangalore on the 25th of May.

As two female photographers (travelling with equipment) can anyone recommend either a train or flight (or any mode of transport) that wont cost the earth.

Many Thanks!

It's 45 hours from Varanasi/Mughal Sarai to Bangalore, have a look at the timings on www.erail.in
The flight option looks a lot better, though it's not cheap.

There is a Rs5844 option, but it only allows 90 minutes to change planes, and as you'd be using 2 different airlines you may have problems if your first flight is delayed, the following seems a safer option.....

Sunday 25th May.

Jet Airways flight 9W724, Varanasi 14:40, Delhi 16:00.

JetLite flight S2235, Delhi 18:55, Bangalore 21:25.

Jet Airways owns JetLite.

Rs6020 (all taxes included)
