Kempegowda International Airport feels well-designed and easy to navigate. The check-in and security processes are reasonably smooth, and the signage is clear, which helps especially if you're not familiar with the layout. The lounges, waiting areas and facilities (food stalls, restrooms, seating) are generally clean and comfortable, giving a good experience for travellers.
However, during peak hours — especially evenings and weekends — the crowds can build up, leading to longer queues at immigration, security, or baggage claim. Parking and transport access can also feel a bit hectic if you are arriving or leaving at busy times. Prices at food stalls and shops are on the higher side, which is expected but worth noting.
Another wrinkle: there have been occasional flight cancellations or schedule changes by IndiGo. This can be inconvenient — especially if it’s a last-minute cancellation or if you booked a connecting flight.
⚠️ Precautions for Passengers & Ticket Bookers
Double-check your flight status (on airline app, SMS/email) before leaving for the airport — particularly if you’re flying with IndiGo.
Allow extra buffer time between connecting flights or onward travel.
Keep important documents (tickets, ID proof) and contact info handy when you travel.
Consider booking refundable or flexible tickets if possible — especially during busy seasons — so you have more flexibility in case of cancellations or delays.
Check in online and monitor flight alerts, so you get immediate updates.
