Sorry the review I just posted was for this flight which was the long haul flight. The planes were nice and that’s about it. No 2 full service meals, only a little tiny vegetable wrap an hour into the flight. Nothing else until the last 2 hours which was the only meal served. Terrible at that. Also no amenity kits were given. Not even a toothbrush. No snacks or nuts in between. Just an awful experience with a mediocre crew. Very disappointed in this supposed 5 star airline according to Skytrax.

Delhi is hot during the day and gets dusty, so bring plenty of light linen and cotton clothes. A pair of thick, closed-toe sandals keep your feet cool while protecting your feet from Delhi’s rough streets. Travelers deal with stomach sickness so much in Delhi that there’s a name for it – Delhi Belly. Bring your upset stomach medicine of choice, just in case.
The Indira Gandhi International airport is just 10 miles from the center of Delhi and transportation is readily available to help you with the transition to your hotel. The best thing to do once you have booked your flights to Delhi and you’re comparing different hotel options is to see if they offer a transfer service. You’ll more than likely need to pay for it but it’ll save you worrying about how you’ll get to Delhi. Failing that, you can opt for the train. The Delhi Metro line connects the airport to the city and runs from Terminal 3 for most of the day (it finishes at 11pm and resumes again at 5am). A ticket will set you back about £1. Delhi Transport Corporation buses are another option you can consider. They run at half hour intervals and can be found outside of Terminal 3. The last option you can look at is a taxi, however there are many tales of scams that happen, so if you decide for a taxi you’ll want a prepaid one as opposed to one of the unofficial ones you can find outside.
Stick to a car in Delhi if you want to avoid getting run over. Traffic is hectic, drivers have little patience with pedestrians and the few sidewalks that exist are poorly maintained and crowded. Avoid travelling in rush hour like the plague.
Old Delhi has winding, narrow streets that could be considered walkable, but beware of handcarts and people with heavy loads. They stop for no one. Your best bet for getting around is via taxi or by hiring a car and driver.
If you’re hailing a cab, always negotiate your fare before you board. You can ask to see the fare chart that drivers carry with them. It’s also a good idea to carry some change, since most drivers don’t carry any with them. If you’d rather hire a car and driver, check with a travel agency.
Delhi is an enormous area and it takes time to learn how to navigate it. If you aren’t traveling with anyone who has been there before, it’s a good idea to take a couple guided tours. The Salaam Balaak Trust is a charity that helps the poor and homeless in India, and it offers tours guided by children who used to live on the street. Your money goes towards a good cause and the children are great at showing you all the ins and outs of the city.
There’s nothing like the atmosphere of a cricket match at Feroz Shah Kotla Ground, India’s second-oldest international cricket stadium. It seats over 40,000 people and tickets are inexpensive, so it’s well worth your time to see a match while you’re in Delhi. Even if you don’t understand the sport, fans are always friendly and talkative, so you can learn plenty about the sport by chatting with the people sitting next to you. Feel like getting active yourself? Try a Bollywood dance class at the Delhi Dance Academy.
See where the emperors of the Mughal dynasty once lived when you visit the Red Fort, a massive building that took almost nine years to build and got its name from its distinctive red sandstone walls. It’s one of the finest examples of Indian architecture, and it contains several museums where you can learn more about India’s history. From February through April there’s a beautiful sound and light show at the Red Fort in the evenings.
Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) is just 10 miles (16km) outside of New Delhi. The airport opened the dazzling new Terminal 3, which handles all international flights, in 2010, but there are also a number of other terminals still in use at the airport. Passengers who used the airport prior to the opening of Terminal 3 might remember a dank and dirty affair with little to offer travelers, but all this changed when the airport was privatized and revamped.
New Delhi’s airport is well connected to cities across the world and serviced by a large number of international and national carriers. There are also quite a few low-cost carriers in residence and it’s a hub for ten Indian carriers including Jet Airways, Kingfisher and Air India.
Indira Gandhi International Airport is a natural gateway to northern India. As one of the largest and busiest airports on the Indian subcontinent, it’s a great introduction to a country full of delights, adventures and surprises.
Airport staff are friendly and always willing to assist passengers or dispense the best bargain-hunting advice for the markets of New Delhi. It has loads of facilities and shopping opportunities, and its clean interior offers an ordered, calm introduction or conclusion to a trip to New Delhi. However, if you do have to spend a lot of time at the airport, make sure you spend it in the modern Terminal 3.
Searches for flights to New Delhi have seen an increase of 104% this year.
If you book a flight to New Delhi, you will be flying into Indira Gandhi Intl, which is the city’s only airport. New Delhi Indira Gandhi Intl (DEL) is located 7.8 mi from the center of New Delhi. 30 airlines have flights to Indira Gandhi Intl from New York on a daily basis. Booking flights to New Delhi Indira Gandhi Intl should not be difficult; the airport handles an average of 5 flights from New York per day.
