Cheap Flight Tickets to Kolkata
If you're planning a holiday to India and Kolkata is on your list, Southall Travel offers some of the best deals on cheap flight tickets to Kolkata, including a wide range of options from UK cities like Manchester to Kolkata, London Heathrow to Kolkata, Gatwick to Kolkata, and Edinburgh to Kolkata.
To secure the lowest fares, it’s best to book well in advance—typically 6–8 weeks before your intended travel date. Flying during the shoulder seasons (March to early May or late September to early November) often results in better prices and a more relaxed experience, both in the air and at the airport. The Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata sees peak traffic during the winter and major festivals, so traveling mid-week and outside of Indian holidays can mean cheaper tickets and shorter queues.
Southall Travel regularly features direct or single stop flights to India, with competitive rates especially from major hubs like Heathrow and Manchester. Whether you're flying from the north of England or Scotland, finding a cheap, convenient route to Kolkata is easy with their flexible search and booking tools.
