Airports — Chennai
Chennai International is a large airport, so allow time for walking, queues and baggage collection, and plan your transfer before you land. The metro, taxis and buses link it with the city centre; choose by luggage, arrival time and where you are staying, and keep a backup option if your flight is late.

Quieter periods outside school holidays and Christmas can bring more flight choice and calmer terminals. Around school holidays, Christmas and the destination's summer, flights to Chennai get busier and well-timed connections sell out earlier, so book ahead once your dates are fixed.
