The best airport in the country in terms of everything. Great infrastructure, gud washrooms,superb cafes. Also it is a silent airport and no announcements since everything is self explanatory.Upvote166DownvoteUpvoted 2 weeks ago
Have to say this has got many more commercial food joints over the years. My heart goes out to Hatti Kapil though. This small joint serves one of the best filter coffee. And there are others too.Upvote113DownvoteUpvoted 2 weeks ago
ShivenJune 26, 2014Cafe noir just outside the departure gate offers the best option in hot fresh french and italian meals. Soup of the day is a must try. Fresh pasta , lasagna is awesome. Lil expensive tho.Upvote28DownvoteUpvoted 1 week ago

I would rate BLR airport better than DEL & BOM domestic terminals anytime. Can not compare the traffic though. It is clean and neat and yes lounges are better here than BOM & DEL. Keep up the goodworkUpvote5Downvote
Deobrat GuptaJune 13, 2016Has to be the 3rd fanned out airport in the country after del and bom, plus the way it is being upgraded outside with IT equipped landscape for EV Motor Charging Dock and other stuff is so cool..

The coffee at the Ely cafe bar is good. If you want beer and some great breakfast, head to the Time Out cafe. All food is expensive. Idly will cost you 100 bucks...WTF did you expect?Upvote7DownvoteUpvoted 2 weeks ago

The shops and restaurants at The Quad has become a hangout place for Bangaloreans. There are people who go to the airport to spend time in one of these hangout places as they are open till wee hours.Upvote2Downvote
Check in atleast 80mins prior to the boarding, or you might get stuck at the security check. The officials are trying their best to regulate & control the flow of passengers.Upvote7Downvote
One of busiest airport in India handling millions of passengers yearly and maintained very well. Still scope for providing recliner seats for comfort of passengers who needs to wait due to delay.Upvote2Downvote
Walk straight out of the terminal and take left till the road ends to find cabs at reasonable rates (ola, meru etc )Upvote4Downvote
Umang ShahMarch 12, 2015Amazing AirPort with subway , CCD .. Only advise , you will find huge rush may be 24*7 so try to reach their atleast 2 hours before departure time to make your journey comfortable .. 😊

Ankit DusejaJanuary 27, 2015There's a newspaper stand opposite to gate no 2 which has some good reading stuff. Grab one for free & enjoy news in the old fashioned way but a guy keeps roaming around to take it back when u r done!UpvoteDownvote

Bijoy GoswamiDecember 21, 2021Get free wifi 2 ways: receive a (free) SMS on your cell phone. Make sure data roaming is turned off! Second, via kiosk by scanning your passport & boarding pass. Kiosk located at baggage claim.

Kaushal SFebruary 18, 2015Just after landing at 8:30 am, I beat the traffic by getting into the city by 9:30 am. Used a BreathingRoom to get work done before my 2 pm meeting. Super productive all around!UpvoteDownvote
Amit GaharwarMay 3, 2015Free wifi. Small but good eating options. To reach airport one can catch BMTC buses that goto various areas of Bangalore.Upvote1Downvote
Make sure to use premium plaza lounges with your credit/debit cards whenever you have spare time before your flight.Upvote1Downvote
Puneet YashodApril 17, 2018The arrival gate and luggage belts with exit is nicely planned and makes it easier to get out. Uber pick up is 100-200mtrs away. The AC bus service for City counters are next to Uber Pick up zones.UpvoteDownvote
The lounge is a nice one. plenty of shopping and restaurant options available. Easy to navigate and super fast to move around in.UpvoteDownvote
The biggest airport ever and now they are expanding from 2 to more runways and segregating the international and domestic. Ample of things inside to pass time onUpvoteDownvote

Terence LeeJune 29, 2014If you're getting a Visa on Arrival, get your usd 60 ready. Yes, usd. have your docs (hotel and return flight booking) printed, along with 2 color passport photos. That will speed things up.Upvote3Downvote
If you want to go inside the airport, you must have the e-ticket!!! And too slowly process and cut in line someone.Upvote1Downvote
One of best, very clean airport, and you don’t have walk long distancesUpvote1Downvote
Remains the best domestic airport in the country. Do try "masala omelette" at Barista if you are travelling in the morning.They also opened a smoking zone recently.Upvote1Downvote- Incase u hav a long transit wait,better option to just step out of the airport n enjoy the tiny food/beverage outlets just outside, much more affordable n more choices than inside!UpvoteDownvote
Self Baggage check-in is a good experience. Security checks are smooth and quick. 1 of the top 5 airports in India.Upvote1Downvote
Relax. The bus stand is right in front. Just walk till there and tell them where ever you want to go. They will tell you the right bus number.UpvoteDownvote
Vishnu RajeevOctober 12, 2014Only Kotak Mahindra ATMs here except for one Canara Bank ATM which is almost a kilometre away. Make sure you have sufficient cash in hand in case if their network gets clogged as it happened with me.Upvote1Downvote
Kamal KrishnaSeptember 1, 2013Use the free wifi to download taxi apps (Ola Cabs, Meru Taxi, Taxi For Sure - on iOS devices). Get fair prices. The "pick up now" feature on such apps allow you to pick a cab in less than 10 min.UpvoteDownvote
