Planning
Turboprops from Kolkata to eastern and north-eastern India
From Kolkata, turboprop trips reach Bagdogra for Darjeeling and the Dooars, as well as Guwahati, Bhubaneswar and Patna. For tea-estate and hill travel, the flight replaces a long overnight road or rail journey.
Weather in the north-east and the eastern Himalayan foothills changes quickly, and low cloud can delay or divert flights. Plan with buffer days and avoid tight connections with other bookings.
Permit and access rules differ by destination in the north-east. Share your destination and traveller nationalities early so the desk can flag any permissions that need time.
