Noida International Airport, Jewar

Terminals:
1 terminal
Type:
International & Domestic
Best for:
Greater Noida, the Yamuna Expressway corridor, Agra and Mathura

NCR’s newest greenfield airport, in Gautam Buddha Nagar. Its real advantage is southward: it sits closer to Agra than any other NCR airport, which makes it the shortest airport-to-Taj-Mahal drive in the country at around 130 km.

1 civil terminal
Type:
Domestic (RCS-UDAN)
Best for:
Ghaziabad, Meerut and the eastern side of NCR

A civil enclave inside an Indian Air Force station, running regional flights under the government’s UDAN scheme to around ten cities. The schedule is thin, but if you are headed for Ghaziabad or Meerut it will save you a great deal of driving.

The Short Version

How to actually choose

The honest advice is to check the flight before you check the drive. IGI operates vastly more services than the other two combined, so for most routes and most dates it is not really a choice — it is the only airport with a flight that works. Start there.

Where it becomes a genuine decision is when a Jewar or Hindon flight happens to fit. If you are heading to Greater Noida, Agra or Mathura, Jewar is meaningfully closer, and the Yamuna Expressway makes the drive fast as well as short. If you are heading to Ghaziabad or Meerut, Hindon is dramatically closer — 8 km against 45 km to IGI for Ghaziabad — and will save you well over an hour each way.

For central Delhi, south Delhi and Gurgaon, IGI wins on distance as well as on flight choice, so there is rarely a reason to look elsewhere. And one point worth making plainly: a shorter drive is no bargain if it costs you a connection or an inconvenient departure time. The drive is the smaller part of the journey.

Common Questions

Delhi NCR airports FAQs

How many airports does Delhi NCR have?+
Three commercial airports serve Delhi NCR. Indira Gandhi International (IGI, code DEL) in Delhi itself is by far the largest, with three terminals. Noida International Airport at Jewar (DXN) in Gautam Buddha Nagar is the newest, a greenfield airport with one terminal. Hindon Airport (HDO) in Ghaziabad is a civil enclave inside an Air Force station running regional UDAN flights from a single civil terminal.
Which airport is nearest to Ghaziabad?+
Hindon, comfortably. It sits about 8 km from Ghaziabad city centre against roughly 45 km to IGI and 55 km to Jewar. If a Hindon flight fits your schedule it will save you well over an hour of driving each way compared with IGI.
Which airport is nearest to Noida and Greater Noida?+
For Noida Sector 18 the three are closer than people expect — Hindon is nearest at about 25 km, with IGI and Jewar both around 35 km. For Greater Noida, Jewar is clearly closest at roughly 25 km, against 50 km to IGI.
Which Delhi airport is closest to Agra and the Taj Mahal?+
Jewar, and by a wide margin. It is roughly 130 km from Agra straight down the Yamuna Expressway, around two to two and a half hours, against about 230 km and three to four hours from IGI. If your trip is built around the Taj Mahal, flying into Jewar is worth checking.
Which airport should I use for Gurgaon?+
IGI, without much debate. Gurgaon sits about 30 km from IGI on the same side of the city, against roughly 90 km from Jewar and 50 km from Hindon. Gurgaon is one of the few destinations where IGI wins on distance as well as on flight choice.
Is it worth flying into Jewar or Hindon instead of IGI?+
It depends entirely on where you are going and whether the flight exists. IGI has vastly more services, so for most routes it is the only practical option. But if you are headed for Greater Noida, Agra, Ghaziabad or Meerut and a Jewar or Hindon flight fits your schedule, the shorter drive is a genuine saving. Check the flight first, then the drive.
Do you provide taxis from all three NCR airports?+
Yes. We run flight-tracked pickups with nameboard meet and greet at all three, including every IGI terminal, with fixed fares quoted before you fly and no surge pricing at any hour. Each airport has its own page on this site with exact pickup points, waiting allowances and fare tables.
