.Can you tell me how to transit from international to domestic airport.i heard that there will be shuttle service ,but how much time exactly it takes
and the time 3hr20min is sufficient to catch the spicejet flight???

is that time is sufficient or shall i go for the airinida/jetlite which are costly then spicejet around 2000 rs

Assuming no inbound flight delays or customs hangups I think so. But, notice the first assumption, inshaallah..

Like Edward mentioned, if there is no delay on the inbound its more than enough time.. i haven't flown Pacific enough to be able to generalize their attitude to 'timings', but im sure you would know..

Even if the flight is on time and you clear your immigration and customs in an hours time (minimum required at the time you will be landing with a dozen other international flights at the same time!!!) you can then go to the special gate for the free inter terminal shuttle coach which leaves both terminals after every half hour. You have to have a ticket for your onward journey from the domestic airport or else you will not be able to use the coach facility. You do not have to exit the airport but go to a special gate just for the free shuttle coach inside the terminal just after you clear customs and go towards the exit gate. You may find the time between your flights a bit less for comfort so I would advise you to keep the longest gap between the two flights.

Cheers,
Aadil.
