Transportation from the City Center to Kolkata Airport
Kolkota Airport, or Kolkota Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport, as it is officially known, is an airport that is the center of all civil air traffic in Eastern India, so it is relatively easy to reach here. The airport, which serves millions of people in a very wide region, experiences busy days every season of the year.
One of the easiest ways to reach the airport is the airport buses that depart frequently. WBSTC (West Bengal Surface Transport Corporation) operates air-conditioned buses frequently between Howrah, Esplanade, Garia, Santragachi and Tollygunge and the airport.
Buses depart at 10, 20 or 30-minute intervals. The flights start at 08:00 in the morning and continue until 21:30 in the evening. You can check the departure times from the official website of the airport depending on where you will take the bus.
You can also go to Kolkata Airport by train. Connected to the Kolkata Suburban Railway system, the airport is the first airport in India to join such a train network. From Dum Dum Cantonment, Majerhat or Sealdah Junction train stations, you can take trains to the airport station Biman Bandar stop. You can find the timetable of these trains on the official pages of the airport or Indian Railways.
Another option that is more comfortable than these is yellow taxis. In addition, Ola and Uber are among the frequently used applications. All of these options, which have their own drop-off points at the airport, are fast and convenient options for airport transfer.
