By Air

  [edit this]

Almost every big city in this country has an airport. Some major points-of-entry are:

- New Delhi
- Bombay (Mumbai)
- Chennai
- Hyderabad
- Cochin

India has homegrown international airlines (Air India, Indian Airlines), but perhaps more convenient method of reaching India is via a non-Indian carrier like Singapore Airlines, Thai or British Airways, all of which fly into Delhi, Bombay and other locations.

Within India, the state run airline, Indian Airlines, is widely considered substandard to the privately run Jet Airways, which operates modern aircraft across much of the country. There are other private airlines as well. Tickets are generally reasonable, although far more expensive than rail travel.
