At 250 km, Delhi to Chandigarh is one of the shortest flight routes in India. The Shatabdi Express does it in 3 hours, costs ₹600, and drops you in Chandigarh Sector 17. Flying makes zero sense.
The Numbers Don't Lie
Our Verdict: Don't Fly.
The flight is actually SLOWER door-to-door than the Shatabdi. And it costs 5-7x more. Plus Chandigarh airport is far from the city, while the railway station is in the heart of Sector 17.
- 🚂 Shatabdi Express: India's BEST train. AC Chair Car, meals included, punctual
- 🚗 Drive option: NH44 is excellent — 4 hrs with one dhaba stop
- ✈️ Only fly if: Connecting to another flight from Chandigarh
