When travelling from Ahmedabad, you will depart from the award-winning Terminal 2. It is advisable to arrive at least two hours early to navigate the 32 check-in counters and clear customs efficiently.
Getting to the airport is straightforward. While a limited city bus service offers a cheap option, arranging a pre-booked taxi or limousine via your hotel is usually more convenient, especially if you're carrying luggage. Taxis serving Terminal 1 are typically run by the Taxi Drivers Association. If you are driving, ample car parking is available with over 1,000 spaces at Terminal 1, and you'll find 900 more at Terminal 2.
Terminal 2 is bright and spacious, even during peak times. Here, you will find excellent facilities designed for your comfort, including banking and ATMs, internet connectivity in most public areas and retail outlets for last-minute shopping. Look forward to browsing the great selection of goods at the Duty Free outlet in T2 before boarding.
