Cheap flights London to Hyderabad

October is the cheapest month on this route, and the price calendar covers every month of the year, so you can see how the rest of the year stacks up before you commit. Spring and autumn are the comfortable windows in both cities, while the monsoon months in India and the British winter are the stretches people tend to work around. Fares move with UK school holidays and with the festival season in India, so if your dates are flexible, aim between those peaks. Midweek departures tend to undercut weekend ones, and booking a few months ahead gives you the widest choice of connections through the Gulf.

Full-service carriers do most of the work here. British Airways and Air India are the familiar names, and Qatar Airways, Etihad Airways and Gulf Air sell one-stop itineraries through their Gulf hubs, usually with baggage included in the fare. Indigo, Air Arabia, Easyjet and Wizz Air UK are the low-cost names that turn up in results, and their base fares rarely cover a checked bag or seat selection, so add those before you compare totals. Accesrail appears on some itineraries alongside a flight. Since nonstop and connecting options both exist, weigh the total journey time, not just the headline fare.

Rajiv Gandhi International is the airport for Hyderabad, and it is the only one serving the city, so every flight lands in the same place. It sits well outside the centre, and the drive in can take a while in traffic, so leave room on arrival day if you have plans. Taxis, app-based cabs and airport shuttle buses are the usual ways into town; settle the fare or book through the app before you get in. If you are flying onwards within India, check whether your bags are tagged through to the final stop, and keep some cash or a working card handy for the first leg of the journey.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check which London airport your fare leaves from, because Heathrow, Gatwick, City, Luton and Stansted are not interchangeable.
• Look at what the low-cost fare actually includes, since a checked bag and a chosen seat can change the total.
• If your trip is split across two tickets, leave a generous gap in case the first flight runs late.
• Confirm your visa or e-visa for India before you pay, and check your passport has enough validity left.
• Fly in October if the fare matters most, and book early around the festival season.
• Check the connection time through the Gulf hub if you are not on a nonstop.
