International flights
Flights from Dubai to Delhi
Delhi is the capital of India and the gateway to the north of the country; Agra, Jaipur and the Himalayan foothills are all reached from here. For the Indian population of the United Arab Emirates this is a route home, taken for weddings, festivals and family time; it also carries business travellers between the Gulf and India's seat of government, and tourists beginning the northern circuit of forts and palaces. Indira Gandhi International Airport is the only arrival in the search, which keeps the Delhi end simple; the choice to make is on the Dubai side.

About this route
From the Dubai end you decide between DXB, the default and the airport beside the city's older districts, and DWC, far out past Jebel Ali. DXB is the natural choice for anyone staying in the city; DWC makes sense if you are already in the south of Dubai or coming by road from Abu Dhabi. Indira Gandhi International Airport is where Delhi takes you in, to the south-west of the centre and next to the business district of Gurugram. The city divides into Old Delhi, with the Red Fort, Jama Masjid and crowded lanes; New Delhi, with wide avenues, government buildings and Connaught Place; and the newer suburbs that stretch out towards the airport and beyond. Where you stay decides how long the drive in is, and the hotels listed on this page run from close to the airport to the edge of the centre. Winters in Delhi are cool and often hazy; summers are hot and dry before the monsoon. Whatever the season, arrange a transfer through AI Concierge and choose the hotel in the same booking, so the only thing left on landing is the drive in, and check the entry rules for your passport before you travel.
