Delhi to Tashkent Flights

What's new in Delhi

• October 2025: The rebuilt Terminal 2 at Indira Gandhi International Airport reopened on 26 October 2025 after a closure that began in April 2025, and a share of IndiGo and Air India domestic flights moved into it. Check the terminal printed on the boarding pass before leaving for the airport.
• February 2026: The full 82 km Namo Bharat regional rail corridor from Sarai Kale Khan to Modipuram in Meerut was inaugurated on 22 February 2026, giving south-east Delhi a fast rail link to Ghaziabad and Meerut.
• June 2026: Noida International Airport at Jewar (DXN) began scheduled flights on 15 June 2026, with IndiGo operating the first service. For some domestic routes it is a practical alternative for travellers based in Noida and Greater Noida.

Tips for travellers

For a two or three day stay, Connaught Place, Paharganj and Karol Bagh sit on the Blue and Yellow metro lines, while Aerocity suits early departures because it is next to the airport. The Delhi Metro is the quickest way across the city, and a smart card or a QR ticket bought on a phone saves time at the counters. October to March is the main sightseeing season, though smog can be heavy in November, and Diwali week fills hotels and trains. May and June are extremely hot.

The Red Fort is closed on Mondays. At Jama Masjid and Gurudwara Bangla Sahib, remove your shoes and cover your shoulders and legs; the gurudwara also asks everyone to cover their head and lends scarves at the entrance. Swaminarayan Akshardham does not allow phones or cameras inside, so leave them in the cloakroom or at the hotel.

Tips for travellers from India

A hotel near Amir Timur Square is useful for the formal central avenues and Museum of Timurid History, whereas the Chorsu area places the bazaar and older streets closer. The metro connects these different parts of Tashkent, so a station near the hotel can matter more than proximity to one landmark. Chorsu and Kukeldash Madrasah make a natural pair; the wider Hazrati Imam complex belongs to another part of an old-city outing.

For an onward train to Samarkand or Bukhara, use the specific Tashkent station printed on the ticket. North and South station references are not interchangeable, and an airport pickup should not simply be directed to the railway station without that detail. The airport is on the southern side of the urban area, while the old bazaar lies farther northwest. A first afternoon around Amir Timur Square can therefore be simpler than immediately crossing to every heritage site. At Chorsu, the covered market and surrounding trading streets form a working commercial area, so a food-and-market visit needs different pacing from the museum galleries. Several Tashkent metro stations, including Kosmonavtlar with its space-themed panels and Alisher Navoi with its domed ceilings, have richly decorated halls, so a short ride can be part of the sightseeing.
