Rajahmundry Airport

Rajahmundry Airport (RJA), serving Rajamahendravaram in Andhra Pradesh, opened in the early 1990s and operates from a single compact terminal that handles regional domestic traffic. As the primary airport for East Godavari district, it’s a small but vital gateway for business travelers and pilgrims visiting the scenic Godavari River area, with regular connections to major Indian cities. The airport is around 15–20 km from the city center with straightforward road access via NH16, taxis, app cabs and nearby rail links at Rajahmundry station. Generally budget-friendly thanks to low-cost carriers, Rajahmundry is served by airlines such as IndiGo, SpiceJet and Alliance Air rather than functioning as a major hub.
