About this route
Many of our Hyderabad travellers are parents flying to and from the UK on their own. If that's your family, our Parent Travel Assist board can help you find another traveller on the same flight.
Non-stop or one stop?
British Airways flies non-stop between Heathrow and Hyderabad. Seats on the non-stop sell early in the busy months, so it pays to book ahead.
One-stop journeys via Dubai (Emirates), Doha (Qatar Airways) or Abu Dhabi (Etihad) are the usual choice from Manchester, Birmingham and Scotland, and a useful fallback from London.
When to fly
October to February is the most comfortable time. April and May are very hot, often above 40°C, and the monsoon runs from about June to September.
Good to know
- The airport is at Shamshabad, south of the city. The expressway makes the drive quicker than it looks on a map, but allow extra time at rush hour.
- If your parents are flying alone, book wheelchair or meet-and-assist help with the airline in advance. We can request it for you when we book.
- Summer school holidays are the busiest time on this route. Booking several months ahead gives you the most choice of flights.
Passports and visas
British passport holders need a valid Indian visa, an e-Visa or an OCI card to enter India. Apply for an e-Visa only through the Government of India's official website, never a lookalike, and check the current rules on GOV.UK before you book.
