Surat Delhi new service opens the world to Surat

Surat to Delhi  Flights now at Rs.4,500 fixed fare in both directions.
Surat will be connected with one more flight on the Delhi - Surat - Delhi sector during the late evening hours by the national Carrier Air India. This flight is operated by Air India under its own code with flight numbers AI/489 and AI/490. This flight is in addition to the existing morning service the national carrier operates under code sharing agreement with its subsidiary Alliance Air DBA Air India regional. The main attraction is the fixed fare of Rs.4,500 in both directions.

With the introduction of this new service from October 1, 2015, Surat will be connected to the national capital every evening. In fact it will have a pair of connections (morning and evening) daily except Thursday. Considering that other private carriers poach for passengers from Surat Airport and divert them to other nearby airports due to excessive supply over demand at other airports, the national carrier has fixed a fare of Rs.4,500 for the first 118 seats rather than a dynamic fare system offered on other sectors. This will prevent flyers from Surat patronizing other airports for paltry savings. This arrangement was made possible due to financial commitments arranged by the elected representatives through business houses in Surat.

Surat is now more easily accessible to the world.
The introduction of this new service has made Surat more accessible to other cities in India and worldwide. First of all the national capital is accessible for same day return in both directions. With this pair of connections, Surat has virtually the entire country and the world at its disposal 24/7 via Delhi Airport IGI Terminal 3 with seamless connections.


The key to getting more flights at reasonable fares is to have more demand so that there is more supply. More supply ensures that carriers can reduce their costs and offer lower prices but for this they require guaranteed patronage. The ball is in the citizens' court now whether they would like to risk their lives to save a thousand Rupees with great difficult driving to other airports and also risk missing their flights and forfeiting fares. The attraction to save resorting to this method has now become less.

The Surat Airport Information website will always make available for download and printing the most up to date Outbound and Inbound Schedules for Surat Airport from / to other important destinations. Please share this with family, friends, relatives and business associates.
