Jaipur to Kangra: Overview of Bus, Train, Flight, and Car Trips

Traveling between Jaipur and Kangra offers a variety of convenient options to suit your preferences, schedule, and budget. Whether you prioritize affordability, speed, or comfort, you’re sure to find the perfect way to travel without compromising on quality or convenience.

Useful tips for plane travellers
• When booking your flight from Jaipur to Kangra, ensure to check flight schedules on AirAsia India, SpiceJet, and IndiGo Airlines as these carriers commonly operate with a stopover, often in Delhi, which may extend travel time unexpectedly.
• Upon arrival at Kangra Airport (Dharamsala), be prepared for a smaller, less crowded terminal; quickly head to the baggage claim area as luggage retrieval is generally efficient but can be delayed if several flights arrive around the same time.
• For transportation from Kangra Airport to the city center, expect approximately 900 to 1,200 INR for a taxi ride, which takes about 30-40 minutes; it's advisable to negotiate your fare upfront or use a ride-hailing app if available.
