Which airlines fly Delhi to Tbilisi?

IndiGo has been the only airline flying Delhi–Tbilisi non-stop, from Terminal 3, and only on some days of the week. Indian airlines have been routing around Pakistani airspace since 2025, which lengthens the flight, and schedules on this route have changed more than once, so confirm the current timetable. Good one-stop alternatives are:

  • flydubai via Dubai or Air Arabia via Sharjah (low-cost, often cheapest)
  • Qatar Airways via Doha or Turkish Airlines via Istanbul (full-service)
  • Azerbaijan Airlines via Baku

What are the best flight timings?

Georgia is 1 hour 30 minutes behind India. Many Gulf connections arrive in Tbilisi in the small hours, so book a hotel that allows late check-in or pay for the previous night. Daytime arrivals are easier with children.

Baggage on full-service and low-cost airlines

IndiGo includes a checked bag on most international fares. flydubai and Air Arabia sell cabin-only fares, so add baggage when you book. Qatar Airways and Turkish Airlines include meals and checked bags. On separate tickets, the lower allowance applies across the trip.

Getting from Tbilisi airport to the city

The airport is about 17 km from the centre. A taxi or Bolt ride takes 25–30 minutes and costs about GEL 25–40 (₹800–1,300). Bus 337 runs to the city for about GEL 1 (₹32) but takes 40–60 minutes.

When to book

Book 4–6 weeks ahead for May–September and for the Gudauri ski season (December to March). February–March and November are usually cheapest. Many travellers combine Georgia with Azerbaijan or Armenia — Tbilisi to Baku is about an hour by air.

Tips for families and seniors

  • Buy travel insurance before you fly; Georgia has made it mandatory for visitors from 2026.
  • Kazbegi is 3 hours by mountain road; motion-sickness tablets help children and seniors.
  • Old Tbilisi is hilly with cobbled lanes, so choose a hotel with lift and taxi access.
