Cheap flights from Amritsar to Kolkata

At Kolkata, weather and daylight change through the year, and fares follow that calendar rather than one fixed season. November is the cheapest month among those with prices listed, while October, December, January, February, March, April and June also have fares. Weekday and weekend differences are not singled out in the facts, so check your own dates in the calendar. School holidays and the Christmas period can tighten availability, so book ahead for those dates.

The mix runs from low-cost carriers such as Indigo, Thai Lion Air and Scoot to full-service carriers such as Air India, Malaysia Airlines and Qatar Airways, with Air India Charters also on the list. No direct flight is listed on this route, so every option connects somewhere. Low-cost fares often exclude bags and seat selection, while full-service fares usually include more; check the fare rules before you pay. Only the airlines named here are shown, so compare their connection times and aircraft on your date.

You land at Subhas Chandra Bose airport, which serves Kolkata and sits outside the city centre, so allow time for the road journey in. Taxis, app-based cabs and buses are the usual ways into town. Watch for prepaid taxi counters at the airport and allow extra time in city traffic. Keep your booking details handy, since terminal and gate information can change on the day.
