Varanasi’s Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport (VNS) serves as the city’s main gateway, functioning primarily as a regional and domestic hub with growing connections to other Indian metros and occasional international services. It typically handles full-service carriers alongside low-cost airlines, so fares can range from budget-friendly to mid-tier depending on carrier and season. The airport sits about 20–30 km from the old city area; road transfers usually take 30–60 minutes by taxi or app cab, with fares commonly in the low hundreds of rupees, while prepaid airport cabs and private transfers are widely available. Pros: relatively compact and easy to navigate, good for quick transfers to the temple areas. Cons: limited direct international routes and peak-time congestion can add to transfer times.
