In addition, Bangalore is connected by flights with almost all of India.
The airport can be reached in the following way:
- on buses Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC), which depart from the city every 15 minutes (a total of 156 buses, of which 40 are air-conditioned). The fare depends on the distance - from 20 to 200 INR. This is the cheapest and most convenient way.
- on the official taxi MERU or EASYCAB, which can be ordered by phone (from the city) or in a special airport zone. The fare is 15 INR per km.
- on a private taxi that can be caught when leaving the airport (they park alongside the red Volvo buses). These taxis are much cheaper than official ones and are not less convenient (air conditioning and TV for each passenger). The cost of travel to the city will cost 300 INR.
- by helicopter Air Deccan Air Limousine. Many hotels and apartments in Bangalore are equipped with helipads (for example, Golden Grand Apartments or Brigade Gateway Hotel). The cost is from 5000 INR.

In addition, Bangalore has two railway stations: The Bangalore City (in the heart of the city), which accepts most trains, both local and from other states, and Yeswantpur Junction, which, as a rule, stop trains from afar. Trains, although they go with delays, but are considered one of the most convenient and cheap modes of transport. For example, a trip to Chennai (360 km, 5-6 hours en route) will cost 125 INR (second class) and 1105 INR (first class).
