Abu Dhabi to India routes. Airlines and times change by season and are confirmed with your quote.

02

Kerala: Kochi, Calicut, Trivandrum and Kannur

Kerala has four international airports, and choosing the nearest one to home can save hours by road. Kochi suits central Kerala, Ernakulam, Thrissur and Kottayam. Calicut serves Malappuram, Kozhikode and the north. Trivandrum suits the south and Kollam. Kannur is closest for Kannur and Kasaragod. Fares between them can differ a lot on the same day, so we check all the airports that work for you and show the difference.

03

Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad and Bangalore

The big cities have the most daily flights and the widest choice of timings, from early-morning departures to overnight flights that land at dawn. They are also the easiest connections onward within India, for example Abu Dhabi to Delhi then on to Lucknow or Jaipur. If your home city has no direct flight, we compare a one-stop ticket with a separate domestic flight and tell you which is safer for bags and missed connections.

04

Airlines on these routes

Etihad flies full service with meals and a larger baggage allowance. Air Arabia Abu Dhabi, Air India Express and IndiGo are low-cost or value airlines with lower base fares and more charges for bags, seats and meals. Air India flies some routes too.

Full-service and low-cost fares to India compared. Allowances vary by airline and fare and are shown in your quote.

A family taking gifts home often finds the full-service fare cheaper once two checked bags each are added to the low-cost option. A single traveller with a cabin bag usually saves with the low-cost fare. We set both side by side so the choice is clear.

05

When fares go up: school holidays, Onam, Diwali and Eid

  • UAE school summer break, from early July: outbound fares to India rise sharply, and returns in late August peak too.
  • Onam, usually late August or September: Kerala routes fill early.
  • Diwali, October or November: Delhi, Mumbai and north India peak. Planning a trip around the festival? See our diwali holiday packages.
  • Christmas, New Year and the UAE winter break: all India routes rise, Kerala and Goa most.
  • Eid holidays: fares jump for the long weekends.

For holiday dates, book six to eight weeks ahead or more; waiting for a sale rarely pays off on peak dates.

06

Baggage allowance and what to check before you pay

Checklist

  • Checked baggage in kilos, and whether it is one piece or split
  • Cabin baggage weight, which low-cost airlines check strictly
  • Extra baggage price if you add it now, which is usually cheaper than at the airport
  • Change and refund rules for the fare
  • Names exactly as on the passport

07

Family and group bookings

Send passport names, dates and the route on WhatsApp and we quote the family together, with seats together and child and infant fares. For 10 or more people we ask airlines for a group fare. Bringing parents to the UAE? We can arrange a UAE visit visa for your family; see also UAE visit visa for Indian visitors. For older travellers, ask us to add wheelchair assistance. Holidaying in India rather than going home? See our India travel packages.

08

Date changes, cancellations and refunds

Some fares allow date changes for a fee plus any fare difference; the lowest fares may not allow changes at all. We show the rules before you pay and handle the change if plans move. Add travel insurance from the UAE for trips booked well ahead.

09

Flying from Dubai (DXB) instead

Dubai has more daily flights to India, and on busy dates a fare from Dubai can be cheaper. Add the cost and time of getting to DXB before deciding. Dubai residents can book through either branch. We compare AUH and DXB for your dates. See all flight tickets from Abu Dhabi, or ask for a fare on WhatsApp.

Still have a question? Ask us on WhatsApp

What is the cheapest month to fly from Abu Dhabi to India?

Fares to India are usually lowest outside UAE school holidays and away from Onam, Diwali, Christmas and Eid. Booking six to eight weeks ahead helps more than waiting for a sale.

Which airlines fly from Abu Dhabi to Kerala?

We compare them on price, baggage and timing, since the cheapest fare often has the smallest baggage allowance.

Can you book tickets for my whole family in one booking?

Yes. Send us the passport names, dates and route on WhatsApp and we quote the family together, including seats together and child fares. For 10 or more people we ask the airlines for a group fare, which can hold the price while names are confirmed.

How much is a flight ticket from Abu Dhabi to Mumbai?

The fare depends on the airline, the date and how far ahead you book, and it changes daily.

What happens if I need to change my date?

Date change rules depend on the fare you bought. Some fares allow changes for a fee plus any fare difference, and the lowest fares may not allow changes at all. We show the change and refund rules before you pay, and handle the change for you if plans move.
