What DEL to AMD looks like
The DEL to AMD sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Delhi DEL to Ahmedabad AMD is a short sector of 757 km by great circle, flown nonstop 19.1 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 757 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 1h 37m.
Delhi DEL is a large airport in the network held here, 133 scheduled destinations and 607.8 departures a day. Ahmedabad AMD has 44 destinations and 95.4 departures a day.
Delhi carries about 6.4 times the departures of Ahmedabad, so a courier who has to be rebooked has far more to work with at one end of this pair than at the other.
Delhi and Ahmedabad keep the same clock all year, so the arrival time is the departure time plus the block and nothing else.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on DEL to AMD from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| DEL to AMD | 19.07 | 133.5 | Air India, IndiGo |
| AMD to DEL | 18.28 | 128 | Air India, IndiGo |
Two carriers hold the sector, Air India and IndiGo, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
At 19.1 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 261.4 departures a week on DEL to AMD, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 1h 37m block time on DEL to AMD. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to DEL | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At DEL before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| DEL to AMD in the air, estimated | 97 min | 6h 07m |
| Formalities at AMD | 90 min | 7h 37m |
| Delivery run in Ahmedabad | 45 min | 8h 22m |
| Door to door | 502 min | 8h 22m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for DEL to AMD is 8h 22m.
A courier who leaves Delhi at 09:00 local is on the ground in Ahmedabad at about 10:37 local and at the door by 12:52 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Ahmedabad, the last useful departure from Delhi is around 14:08 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 35 of them join DEL to AMD.
| Connecting at | DEL to hub, flights a day | Hub to AMD, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jaipur JAI | 5.36 | 3.43 | 758 | 3h 06m |
| Jodhpur JDH | 2.3 | 0.71 | 831 | 3h 13m |
| Indore IDR | 10.58 | 2.29 | 990 | 3h 28m |
| Chandigarh IXC | 8.21 | 0.86 | 1,175 | 3h 33m |
| Bhopal BHO | 6.5 | 1.14 | 1,069 | 3h 35m |
| Lucknow LKO | 12.26 | 2 | 1,351 | 3h 48m |
With 19.1 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
35 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Jaipur JAI, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 3.4 times a day.
Through JAI the routing covers 758 km against the 757 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 06m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 29m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Jodhpur JDH at 3h 13m and Indore IDR at 3h 28m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.

Restrictions
Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for DEL to AMD in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
