Getting from BLR

BMTC Vayu Vajra buses depart from outside the arrivals exit to multiple city destinations including Majestic bus station, Kempegowda Station (City Railway), Whitefield, and Electronic City for INR 250–320. Ola and Uber operate from a designated pick-up zone; fares to the city centre run INR 600–1,000 but surge pricing during peak hours can double this. Prepaid taxis are available at a fixed-rate desk inside arrivals.The Metro Yellow Line airport extension provides faster access to central Bengaluru; verify current operating hours and frequency. Rental car desks are in the arrivals hall. Allow extra time for traffic on exit; the BIAL access road is a known bottleneck.

Bengaluru Climate

Tropical highland climate. Bengaluru's elevation (920 m) keeps temperatures moderate year-round. Summers (March–May) are the hottest at 28–36°C. The southwest monsoon (June–September) brings heavy daily rainfall with frequent afternoon thunderstorms that cause delays. A weaker northeast monsoon affects October–November.

Winters (December–February) are pleasant and dry at 15–26°C. This is the most comfortable and operationally reliable season. Visibility is generally good outside monsoon months. Bengaluru carries unusually heavy air traffic year-round. Build buffer time for potential congestion even in good weather.
