What a fabulous trip. Met all my expectations! Skiing was wonderful, and definitely got the flavour of Kashmir in the accommodation at Highlands Park. Thanks to Nick - really enjoyed it.

Flight Information and Delhi Transfers
International flights to Delhi arrive at the International Terminal and the connecting flight to Srinagar departs from the Domestic Terminal. The 2 terminals are a few miles apart and it takes 20-30 minutes to travel between the 2 terminals by taxi. It is essential that you have at least 3 hours between your scheduled arrival into Delhi and the connecting flight to Srinagar.
In 2010 the last flight to Srinagar leaves Delhi at 11am which means your international flight should arrive no later than 8am.
From the UK British Airways offers the most convenient connections with 2 flights daily from Heathrow arriving in Delhi at 0155am and 0455am.
Virgin and Airindia both have 1 flight each day from Heathrow but both flights arrive after 11am which is too late to make the connecting flight to Srinagar on the same day.
If you need (want) to arrive early and spend the night in Delhi we can arrange accommodation in the Hotel Shoba which is conveniently located withing 20 minutes drive of the airport and the cost is £70 per person including transfers.
