Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport

Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport at Amausi, opened in the 1980s, is a mid-sized international gateway serving Lucknow and eastern Uttar Pradesh with two main terminals handling domestic and international flights. Strategically important for regional traffic, the airport sits roughly 14 km from downtown Lucknow and is well connected by a dedicated airport road, taxis, app-based cabs and regular bus services, with rapid-transit and metro links progressively improving. Travelers typically find fares competitive thanks to a strong low-cost carrier presence; the airport functions as a focus city for IndiGo and hosts bases for regional carriers such as Alliance Air, SpiceJet and Vistara, making it an affordable, convenient option for both business and leisure travelers.
