Lal Bahadur Shastri Airport (VNS) serves Varanasi as a regional gateway with a mix of domestic and some limited international connections, typically handling full-service carriers and low-cost airlines alike. Located roughly 25–35 km from the city center, travel times can range from about 30–60 minutes by taxi or app cab depending on traffic; shared auto-rickshaws and local buses are cheaper alternatives and may take longer. Fares to town are usually modest by Indian standards, with taxis costing more than public buses. The airport can be convenient for pilgrims and business travelers thanks to compact facilities and relatively short transfer times, but peak-season crowds and limited late-night services could reduce comfort or flexibility.

Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) is Nepal’s main international gateway and typically serves most long‑haul and regional carriers, while a handful of smaller airfields handle domestic hops. KTM is generally positioned as a full‑service hub rather than a low‑cost base, and fares can be competitive but often vary with seasonal demand. The airport sits about 6–7 km from central Kathmandu; road transfer times are usually 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, with taxis costing roughly NPR 300–800 and metered options or ride‑hailing sometimes slightly higher. Pros: direct international links and modest facilities; cons: can be crowded, with limited terminal space and variable punctuality during peak periods.
