  • Are there onsite airport hotels at Visakhapatnam Airport?

Most surrounding the airport are 4-star hotels, such as Dolphin Hotel Visakhapatnam, Fairfield by Marriott Visakhapatnam, Welcomhotel by ITC Hotels Devee Grand Bay Visakhapatnam, and Ginger Visakhapatnam.

The only buses you can take to the stadium without connecting from the city center pass through Gajuwaka, which makes the journey about three times as long.

  • Do I need a visa when traveling to Visakhapatnam Airport?

    Yes, all US citizens planning to visit India must have a visa and passport that stays valid for six months after the application date, so be sure to note the expiration date of your passport. In addition, your passport should have at least two blank pages for stamps.

    The airport is not very far from the city, which means you have several transportation options to choose from based on your preferred levels of comfort, convenience, safety, and budget. The airport is adjacent to the national highway and is well connected with buses and cabs. Savaari Taxis are available to pick you up from the airport and take you anywhere you want in less than an hour.

Your guide to booking Visakhapatnam flights

From booking to airport arrival, find tips to help you plan your flight with more confidence.
  • For the best chance at a low fare to Visakhapatnam, aim to book around 24 weeks before you fly. That window historically saves about 28% versus last-minute pricing based on KAYAK booking data over the last 12 months.
  • For flights to Visakhapatnam, recent KAYAK data shows that stronger deals tend to land around $992 round-trip. If you see a fare below that threshold, it's a strong deal – book before the price climbs back up.
  • If you can choose when to go, time your trip to Visakhapatnam around February. Round-trip fares historically average $995 that month – typically the cheapest month to travel based on the last 12 months.
  • Before you book:

    • Check the route's typical price range so you can spot a deal.
    • Confirm baggage fees and seat-selection costs on budget carriers.
    • Verify whether you need any travel documents beyond ID.
    • Pick a departure airport, since your nearest may not be the cheapest origin.
  • Shift your departure to morning to save up to $253 per round-trip. Morning flights to Visakhapatnam average $1,239 compared to $1,492 for afternoon flights. See the time-of-day chart above for the full breakdown.
  • Visakhapatnam International Airport (VTZ) is the main airport in Visakhapatnam, India, located 7.4 miles from the city center. The airport serves the areas of Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, and southeast India, so it’s a convenient airport to fly into if you’re planning to visit other areas of the country.
  • If you are looking to explore other cities in India, consider using the Redbus, which operates from Hyderabad to Visakhapatnam, instead of a connecting flight to Rajahmundry Airport (RJA). You can also take a train from Visakhapatnam Airport to Bhubaneswar.
  • There are no direct flights from the US to Visakhapatnam Airport. You will need to book a flight with one or several stopovers, depending on your budget and flexibility. The shortest possible flight from the US to Visakhapatnam takes nearly 22 hours.
  • If you’re on a tight budget, booking your flight to Visakhapatnam Airport in advance may save you a significant amount of money, especially if you’re visiting the city during the holiday season.
  • Visakhapatnam Airport allows you to carry as much money as you want. However, if the amount exceeds $10,000 USD in bills or $5,000 USD in coins, you will need to declare it at customs.

Airline reviews

I had selected seats together for my family of three when I first booked my tickets in February. However, I realized only when I checked in at the airport that the seats I had selected were no longer assigned to us and we were completely scattered across three different middle seats instead of being seated together! After requesting the Singapore staff to have us seated together on a full flight, they managed to find something but it was right next to the rest rooms and the whole journey of 15+ hours was really unpleasant. They said that the seat selection isn't locked and the airline can reallocate the seats anytime. No one ever told us this and it was a terribly unpleasant surprise. Will avoid Kayak/underpricer and Singapore in future

The friendliness of the attendants, and the quality of the service.

Flight attendants were awesome! Very helpful and patients. Some food were good but maybe not serving fish that kinda make the whole aircraft smell fishy. The “fried pork” was tasty but too much skin so it doesnt taste that great.

I was in a middle seat where I felt a bit too cramped otherwise the trip was good

Good service and food. For buying items on flight should be preordered as they don’t keep much stock on board.

Timing very good from sfo to Singapore and service was awesome and economy class seats are great overall very good experience thanks

Flying with Singapore airlines is always excelllent - the crew are lovely and the food too is great. It’s my number 1 airline

Check in was snails pace, only 1 of the luggage screen was working so long lines, an hour to check in Nobody seemed to want to fix the issue Flight was 45 minutes late Scoot is a mini sized plane ( sardine class plane), literally felt slammed between people

Would have been nice to have more variety and less dairy in the Indian Vegetarian special meal. Why do they include Parathas as part of the entree and also on the side (substitute for bread/roll)? Also, no need for so much dairy...don't need milk packet, yogurt and Chobani Greek yogurt in the same meal.

Seating wasn’t good at all with not much leg space in between. Fortunately it was a relatively short flight. Otherwise we would have struggled a lot. On board meal was pretty ordinary. It is sad to see the overall quality of this once superb airline has dropped so low.

Old dirty plane but great lie flat seats in business class

Business Class layout was excellent. The seats were not nearly as comfortable as UA, Delta or Air New Zealand (the best). Nor were the controls as flexible. Food was okay but not great. Breakfast pancakes were like cardboard.

Communication not good, too many changes. Three flights were cancelled due to weather and the options were not acceptable. I had to cancel my Canada portion of the trip.

On time and stellar premium class service. Not liking non LCD display in seat backs - miss the convenience of not using your own device.

My flights were all delayed , mostly due to technical issues with AA aircrafts. I had to rebook my trip 4 times . I lost my whole day and finally arrived in LAX around midnight. This was a very bad experience with American airlines , I will always try to avoid flying with them

AA was fine....the overall experience was subpar, but not due to the airline due to broader issues

Delayed and WIFI was not working for most of flight.

A crew member's attitude towards a couple passengers who couldn't speak English was rude. Just because they didn't understand what the passenger said, they were not given any snack.

I am writing to share detailed feedback regarding my recent journey with American Airlines on the New York (JFK) to New Delhi (DEL) sector, which was ultimately diverted to Jaipur (JAI) due to weather conditions. At the outset, I would like to acknowledge that this was a full long-haul flight of approximately 14–15 hours, and while the journey fulfilled its primary transport objective, several aspects of the experience warrant both recognition and constructive feedback. 1. Cabin Crew Conduct and Service Consistency While the majority of the cabin crew maintained a polite and professional demeanor, one flight attendant’s conduct was notably inconsistent with expected service standards. The tone was often directive and lacked the warmth and guest-centric engagement typically associated with long-haul service. This created a perceptible imbalance in the cabin experience. Although other crew members acknowledged and apologized for the behavior, it highlighted a gap in service standardization and supervisory oversight. 2. Inflight Experience (IFE & Comfort) The inflight entertainment system was unreliable, with content failing to load consistently throughout the journey. Seating comfort in economy class was below expectations when compared with other international long-haul carriers. Cabin environment management at times felt unsettled, with noticeable noise and movement in the aisles. 3. Disruption Handling and Communication (DEL Diversion to JAI) The diversion to Jaipur due to weather was understandably beyond the airline’s control. However, the handling of post-diversion communication and guest management was an area of concern: Information during and after the diversion was fragmented and lacked clarity Limited guidance was provided upon disembarkation regarding next steps (transport, accommodation, onward travel) Ground coordination appeared inconsistent, with hotel partners and passengers receiving incomplete or delayed updates Communication the following morning remained unclear, including last-minute changes to transfer timings This resulted in avoidable uncertainty during a critical disruption phase. 4. Positive Acknowledgment – Ground Recovery Arrangements It is important to recognize that despite the initial communication gaps, the overall recovery framework was eventually well executed: Hotel accommodation was arranged efficiently Meal vouchers were provided appropriately Transfers between airport and hotel were organized in a structured manner Given the sudden and large-scale disruption, these arrangements were commendable and reflect the airline’s ability to operationally recover once systems were in place. 5. Recommendations for Improvement In the interest of strengthening the overall customer experience, I would respectfully propose the following: Service Delivery Reinforce consistent cabin crew service standards, particularly for long-haul sectors Enhance supervisory presence to address outlier behaviors in real time Inflight Product Improve reliability of inflight entertainment systems Reassess economy seating comfort for ultra-long-haul routes Disruption Management Establish a more visible “Care & Coordination Team” during irregular operations Ensure clear, centralized communication (single source of truth) for passengers and ground partners Provide structured briefing points to hotel and transport vendors to avoid information gaps Introduce proactive guest engagement (clear next steps, timelines, reassurance) Closing Reflection: While the journey was impacted by both controllable and uncontrollable factors, the overall experience would have been significantly enhanced through greater consistency in service delivery and more structured communication during disruption. I appreciate the efforts made by the broader team in arranging accommodation and onward logistics under challenging circumstances. With improved coordination and alignment, the experience can be elevated to match the expectations of a global long-haul carrier. Thank you for your attention to this feedback. I trust it will be received constructively and contribute to ongoing service improvement. Warm regards, Soosnata Chowdhury Convert effective for airlines) Or tailor tone

So i was checked in for the seat number 40K. Unfortunately my seat was not able to recline which end up having very uncomfortable 15 hours flight.

My first check in at my origin checked my visa for my international flight but it needed to be checked again. While this is understandable, I had to wait in line for 2 hours to get this second check. More agents are needed to process travel issues in Heathrow. There were times during the 2 hour wait that there was only one person servicing the long line (I don't know where the others went). There were many agents milling about but not working the desk so it seemed as if there were plenty of people at work that day. I attempted to use the automated kiosk but because I had a new visa (not one in my passport). Again, most of this was understandable travel delays but the queue processing time was just horrible.

The plane was so old, it needs to be retired! The windows were rattling we paid for premier economy and there was no footrest. Video console was so old, barely had any games for kids. Video console is very slow to react. The gaming console was broken. The foldable food table was sticky and the air hostess had a rough time opening it and closing it for us!!

Generally okay. Disappointing compared to some of their competitors. My seat hadn’t been cleaned properly which was upsetting

The map feature on the display at the seat had challenges. The biggest issue was the flight had no WIFI. Most of the smaller planes now have free WIFI. American Airlines on the flight over had WIFI you could purchase. With 8-10 hours on a single flight, the ability to do work via WIFI is essential!!

My experience with IndiGo was terrible. I had tried to check in online. I could do the DEL to LHR and from LHR to JFK. However, I was unable to check in for the CCU to DEL flight. There was no explanation of why I could not do so. After 2.5 hours of being shuffled from one place to another, I found out that because I was on a codeshare flight, I had to get my boarding pass at the airport. For 2.5 hours, no one was able to explain this to me.

A little bit late but it went smoothly overall. Delicious food on Indigo!

The business class seating arrangement for LHR to MAA was very uncomfortable. The movie options were terrible.

Even in business class, no 2 members of our family including kids were able to sit together. I booked the tickets months in advance. The all my luggage was left in London and arrived 2 days later. It took hours to report the missing luggage at the airport and 3-4 hours to recover one of the bags from the airport with mind bending amount of paperwork. Worst experience ever, I would seriously reconsider traveling by British Airways again.

Overall, the food and entertainment were great. The staff were amazing, polite and professional. They did not have WiFi on board on this leg but that was okay. There was a delay in boarding from London and landing at Mumbai airport but the pilot communicate DC the reason for the delayed landing. They even sent us an apology afterwards for the delayed landing.

Experience with British Airways was hopeless and the response from ground staff after flight cancellation was hopeless

I appreciated a meal on the shorter flight. It was slightly delayed with no announcement but I was able to determine what was happening.

Very comfortable flight. I appreciate the announcements were also in English.

Flight was cancelled by air India. There was no explanation provided why the flight was cancelled. Found out that the flight was cancelled because the Iran air space was closed. Meanwhile, all other flights passing through that region were operating without issues. When asked to refund money for the tickets, being told that “ As checked, we wish to share that Flight AI 116 on 15 January 2026 from New York to Mumbai was cancelled due to Iran airspace closure, which were beyond the airline’s control. While such events can disrupt travel plans, we appreciate your understanding and patience. Our team remains committed to ensuring the safety and comfort of all passengers and takes all necessary measures to minimize any issues. However, we must inform you that compensation is not applicable under these extraordinary circumstances, in accordance with the relevant regulations.” Completed unacceptable and unprofessional behavior!

Needs lots of improvement starting from crew/staff attitude, cleanliness, better quality food & in flight amenities.

Horrible flight. No entertainment or WiFi for a 14-hour flight. No explanations either. I’ll never fly Air India again.

Several seats in business class were broken. Some would not recline, others had other problems. They need to really update the seats and AV.

Never can get flight and nof light for three days .finally travel by bus. Very bad experience.

Food not of any international or even Indian standard. We have many cuisine available but only paneer & sundry items. Improve & provide some good indian items. Entertainment website or channel out of order.

Non reclining seats on a 14 hour flight. Crew skipped drinks for my row at least twice.

It’s an overall good flight. Check in crew should be more professional, at least greeting/acknowledging the passenger instead of being on the phone while serving passengers.
