Ways to Commute to Bangalore International Airport

February 15, 2017 by Raggi Mudde

There are various ways you could commute to Bangalore Airport. Special Volvo Bus for the airport is very convenient to commute to and from Bangalore Airport.

Meru, Easycabs and KSTDC (govt) cabs are the popular taxi services to commute to and from Bangalore Airport. A detailed list can be seen here.

Commuters must note that a toll is payable when they travel towards the city from the Airport.

Airport helpline can be reached at +91-88849-98888 080-2201-2001.

Reaching Bangalore Airport By Road

The govt has started the work on the elevated road from Hebbal to Kogilu Cross. This is something one should have completed before the inauguration of the airport. Anyway, we are known to do things only in the 11th hour.

For those coming from Indiranagar, old Airport Road, Koramangala, Electronic City, Hosur Road/Silk Board junction and central Bangalore – take the Outer Ring Road (ORR) right up to Nagawara. Then take a right turn to hit Thanisandra, go straight, take a left near Bagalur Cross, hit Bagalur Main Road, and head straight towards Bellary Road on a 4-lane road from Nagawara.

For commuters coming via Trinity junction, instead of taking the Cubbon Road, they can head towards Ulsoor Lake, Naga Theatre, Coles Park, Haj camp, Nandidurg Road, Jayamahal and Mekhri Circle and then head via Hebbal flyover. The route via Nagawara will also be available but longer for these commuters.

The Nagawara-Thanisandra route has been opened primarily for those coming from areas close to the ORR. If you take this route, it will take around 26 kms and 40 minutes to reach the airport.

If you take the Hennur Cross -Begur route, it will take around 55 minutes to reach the airport, and the distance will be around 27 kms.

To avoid all the planning, we strongly recommend you use the public transportation (Volvo bus) or a taxi service listed below.

Toll Rates To Use Bangalore Airport

In May 2014, the government decided to increase the toll rates. It has become expensive to reach the airport these days. It is best to use the Volvo bus to commute to the airport.
