How to Reach Andaman from Delhi
No train or highway reaches the islands. From Delhi you fly to Port Blair. There is no passenger ship from the capital; sea sailings, when they run, start from selected eastern ports.
Delhi to Andaman by Flight
Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) to Veer Savarkar International Airport (IXZ). Some dates have been non-stop; others connect via another Indian city. Check the airline for your date — we will not invent a current carrier list.
Terminal choice, check-in queues and the drive from NCR all sit on the Delhi side. A 06:00 DEL departure from Noida is not the same morning as one from Vasant Vihar. If the ticket is a connection, read the layover: a short hub turn that lands you in Port Blair at night should not be paired with a same-day Havelock ferry.
Delhi to Andaman by Ship
There is no ship from Delhi to Port Blair. Reaching a port such as Kolkata or Chennai first, then sailing for several days, only makes sense if the sea journey is the point of the trip. For a normal NCR holiday, fly.
Can You Travel from Delhi to Andaman by Train?
New Delhi, Hazrat Nizamuddin and Anand Vihar are useful for reaching the capital, not the islands. There is no railway to Andaman. If you take an overnight train into Delhi, do not ticket a same-morning Port Blair flight in winter without slack — fog delays are a known DEL pattern, even when your rail leg was on time.
Delhi to Port Blair Flights
This is one of the longer mainland sectors to the islands. Plan around arrival quality, not just the existence of a flight.
- Airports: Delhi (DEL) to Port Blair (IXZ).
- Winter mornings: fog at DEL can delay or retimetable outbound flights. A Port Blair night on arrival is a cheaper insurance than a prepaid Havelock ferry you miss.
- Connections: acceptable if you still reach IXZ with daylight. A double connection that lands after 20:00 should end the day at the Port Blair hotel.
- Peak season: October–May and school holidays. Ticket air once dates are firm, then send the PNR.
Send DEL timings before you assume day one includes sightseeing.
What Time Should You Reach Port Blair?
From Delhi, “morning flight” on the ticket is not the same as morning arrival in Port Blair. If you land after mid-afternoon, we will usually keep you in Port Blair that night.
Cellular Jail and a light city circuit need leftover daylight and energy. They are a poor match for an NCR traveller who has already spent the day in airports.
Share the flight number. If DEL is running late, we would rather move a ferry than watch you run through Phoenix Bay with luggage.

Delhi to Andaman Trip Cost
DEL–IXZ tickets are a large share of the total from North India. Add them to the land package; do not compare our card prices with an “all-in from Delhi” figure on another website that may or may not include air.
Air travel cost
Fares swing with season, non-stop vs connection, and how close you are to travel. No live fares on this page.
Andaman land package cost
Hotels, ferries, cabs, listed tickets. Peak Christmas/New Year island rates are a separate spike from Delhi airfares.
How Many Days Do You Need for an Andaman Trip from Delhi?
If leave is only four calendar days including both flying days, you will barely see Havelock. Lengthen the island stay, not just the office leave line.
3 nights / 4 days
Rarely worth the DEL sector. Only if leave cannot move and you accept a Port Blair–Havelock dash.
4 nights / 5 days
Minimum we would call a holiday from NCR, with a daytime arrival and no same-day Havelock gamble.
5 nights / 6 days
The standard first trip: three islands, one recovery evening in Port Blair.
6 nights / 7 days
Best match for Delhi flying time — buffer for fog/delays, or Baratang on selected itineraries.
What Is Typically Included
Island services from Port Blair, depending on package. Delhi–Port Blair airfare is not included unless the quote says so.
Why Book the Andaman Portion with a Local Operator?
Fog in Delhi is not something an island hotel can control. A missed ferry after a retimed DEL arrival is. We sit on that side of the problem. No Delhi office. About us.
