Was there in June '08. Lots of independent taxi drivers outside the airport in the late morning-afternoon-evening. They will overcharge, so use your bargaining skills. The airport is quite a distance from the city and they are your only option. Road to Kanha was good, the drive is hot.

Sorry, really don't remember how much I was charged for a cab trip to the city bus stop, about 120-200 rupees, maybe. After that, I was adventurous

I took a bus to the village stops for Bandhavgarh and Kanha. I really wouldn't recommend it though, hot, sweaty, long, tiring.

Are you going to Mukki or Kisli? It took around 4 hours last week to Kisli. Mukki is slightly less.

MPT provides cars. Jabalpur Railway Station has a kiosk, but I do not know about the airport. But you can always contact them in advance and they will send the car.

Non AC charge: MPT charges Rs 6 / Km and a minimum of 250 Km/day. Night stay charges 250/night. Add service tax to this.
Jabalpur - Kanha is 160 Km. So you pay for 320 Km.
I am not sure about the AC charges.
