Flight
Rajiv Gandhi International Airport Hyderabad
Airport Code: HYD Airlines: Highly recommend flying through Emirates, Qatar or Etihad airlines if you are flying from the United States. These airlines tend to have a single stop in Dubai, Doha or Abu Dhabi with enough time to decompress and switch to your next flight + the airports are great. I would generally recommend against Air India, for now as they're going through a large fleet upgrade over the next few years. Airport Pickup/Drop-off: If you make a reservation with Marriott, you should be able to schedule a pickup & drop-off through them, which is recommended over taking an airport taxi or Uber. Alternatively, Sai can help you with any arrangements through a known & trusted service for pick-up and drop-off. For your flight(s) out of Hyderabad, it is highly recommended that you arrive at the airport 3 hours ahead of time for an international flight. Additionally, international flights in most cases fly out from a different terminal than domestic flights - which are not connected by any shuttles or Skytrain, so make sure to verify your terminal before going to the airport. Visa: You can apply for 30-day tourist visa for India - https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/evisa/tvoa.html. Sai and Alex would be happy to provide a visa support letter if needed, in addition to the invitations.
