Kolkata Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport (CCU) offers you a high-quality passenger experience as you begin your journey from Eastern India’s largest airport. We recommend allowing at least two hours before departure to complete check-in and customs clearance at the International Concourse.

Travelling to the airport is straightforward. While the old train service is being upgraded, reliable transport options include shuttle buses, which are plentiful and air conditioned, or pre-paid Yellow Taxis for fair pricing. The expanding Metro system also runs until 10 pm, and the overground track operates until 6:30 pm via Dum Dum Junction. Car parking is currently limited, so plan your drop-off accordingly.

Before your flight, enjoy the airport’s modern amenities. You have access to three available lounges for relaxation. Public areas provide Wi-Fi access, with the first 30 minutes free, alongside several Internet cafés. Food vendors offer a good choice of light refreshments, including the ubiquitous chai, and both local Indian and international cuisine. For last-minute gifts or accessories, you can explore a range of retail outlets selling quality local goods and high-end perfumes and leather goods.

Sofia is Bulgaria’s captivating capital, a dynamic European destination that's rich in history. As one of Europe’s oldest continually inhabited capitals, dating back 7,000 years, Sofia’s central area is easy to explore on foot.

Get a glimpse of the past by discovering the Roman ruins of the Ancient Serdika Complex, where remnants of the old city walls and streets are visible right in the metro hub. Wander through the heart of Sofia along Vitosha Boulevard, the main pedestrian street lined with shops and cafés, before heading to the Women’s Market for fresh local produce and Bulgarian goods.

For a break from the urban bustle, escape to nature by visiting the majestic Vitosha Mountain. Just moments from the city centre, it's a magnificent setting for relaxation with its stunning natural backdrop and accessible trails.
