Cheap Flights from New York to Delhi Starting at $333

John F. Kennedy International (JFK) serves as New York’s main international gateway and a major transatlantic and transpacific hub, typically favored by legacy carriers like Delta, American and numerous international airlines. Fares can be mid-to-high compared with regional options, especially on long-haul routes. The airport sits about 15–20 miles southeast of Manhattan; travel by AirTrain plus subway or LIRR usually takes 35–60 minutes and can cost roughly $10–$20, while taxis and ride-shares often take 40–70 minutes depending on traffic and can be pricier. Pros: broad route network and extensive international connections. Cons: busy terminals and occasional long lines during peak times. LaGuardia (LGA) is primarily a domestic and short-haul airport that often caters to budget-minded travelers and major U.S. carriers, with an increasing number of upgraded terminals and joint-venture routes. It’s the closest major airport to Manhattan, roughly 8–10 miles from Midtown; ride-share or taxi rides usually take 20–40 minutes depending on traffic and surge pricing can affect costs, while buses and subway connections via local transit are typically 30–50 minutes and very economical. Pros: short transfer time to the city and many domestic flights. Cons: limited long-haul service and variable congestion at peak hours. Newark Liberty International (EWR) functions as a major regional and international hub often used by United Airlines and many transatlantic carriers, sometimes offering competitive fares versus JFK for certain routes. Located about 15–20 miles southwest of Midtown Manhattan in New Jersey, it’s reachable by NJ Transit or Amtrak plus AirTrain in roughly 30–50 minutes for moderate fares, while taxis and ride-shares typically take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic and tolls. Pros: strong long-haul connectivity and frequent rail links. Cons: can feel less convenient for Manhattan travelers due to being across state lines and occasional ransom on ground transport during rush hours.

Delhi is served mainly by Indira Gandhi International (DEL), the city’s large international hub handling premium carriers and most long-haul services, alongside a smaller domestic airport at Hindon (near Ghaziabad) that caters to some low-cost and regional flights. DEL sits about 16–18 km southwest of central New Delhi; typical transfers include the Airport Express train (roughly 20–25 minutes, higher fares), Delhi Metro and regular city buses (30–60 minutes depending on traffic, lower fares), plus taxis and ride-hailing options. Expect a wide range of airlines and price points at DEL, while Hindon can be cheaper but less convenient. Pros: extensive connections and modern facilities at DEL; cons: peak-hour congestion and variable transfer times.
