Reaching Kolkata from international cities usually means flying into Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport (CCU). Major airlines connect Kolkata with cities worldwide, so you can often get there with just one or two layovers.
Recommended airlines from North America are Etihad, Emirates or Air India. Lufthansa or British Airways if you are flying from Europe.
Chandradip does not prefer Qatar Airways but feel free to support CORRUPTION, GREED and LABOR EXPLOITATION. You can read more here and make an informed decision.
For our friends and family traveling within India, Kolkata is well connected with all major airports and railway stations.
This is work in progress and will be finalized once guests have RSVP'd.
Getting around Kolkata is easy and safe with several options: Use the efficient Kolkata Metro for longer distances, opt for the famous yellow taxis or app-based ridesharing services like Uber or Ola for convenience, and explore shorter routes with auto-rickshaws.
