Hyderabad Airport

✅ Verified Review | Arrival: Fast and efficient, easy to understand with sign boards all over the place. Once you come out, easy to locate transportation and hotel options and very neat and clean eateries. Departure: Very well organised and efficient at check in counters. Post security check the shopping options are plenty and the look and the feel is truly fantastic. No smelly washrooms here!

✅ Verified Review | Due to more domestic flights serving the airport than international flights, the queue to the baggage checks at the domestic section of the departure hall is very long. It took me about 30 minutes to get my baggage checked by the machines because of the queue. Therefore I can imagine queue at the Immigration counter for outbound international flights will be longer. The passenger terminal building looks smaller than Changi Airport Terminal 1 and passengers are not allowed to access to the airport offices of airlines unfortunately. One has to engage the Information counter staff's help to call the relevant airline office staff to arrange a meeting and therefore almost impossible to get any airline travel brochure. One can only buy tickets through the windows of the ticketing offices of the airlines next to the entrance of the building. The Plaza Premium Lounge after the Immigration serves healthy Indian food and it is the most attractive place of the airport to be in. There is the airport transit hotel in the basement managed by the Plaza Network of lounges while the Novotel Hotel of the airport is way outside from a passenger's view at the airport, meaning one has to travel by taxi to reach the Novotel Hyderabad Airport Hotel. Overall, it is a good airport for transit flights to Chennai, Vijaywada and Coimbatore.

Immigration at Hyderabad Airport took more than one hour, very frustrating for many many passengers. Lack of adequate immigration staff today. Also, for entire two hour period at airport, there is only one song being piped throughout the airport. Does airport really lack ability to add a stock of instrumental music? It is a most boring airport.

Departures is well organized. Terminal is pleasant and user friendly. However, arrivals is a nightmare. Have to walk to pick up point D to get into a car service. In addition, depending on the time of arrival, payment of parking sometimes takes as long as 10-15 minutes. The charge for picking up at the arrivals is 500. Perhaps the only airport charging such amount for a curbside pick up.

I find this airport to be very well organised and on par with some of the international airports. The departures and arrival areas are clean and well organised. A wide range of amenities are available for travelers in the waiting area and one can spend a decent time after check in.

I've been to Hyderabad airport a couple of times. It is really pleasant in the early morning without much hassle. There are adequate check-in counters. Security is good and the staff are friendly and cooperative. There are also some plush lounges for the business and first class travelers. It has sufficient number of aerobridges compared to other indian airports. Infrastructure is amongst the best in India. The only negative is that they don't provide unlimited access to the internet while in the airport, apart from this RGIA is surely worth a visit.

The airport is spacious and modern but immigration and security are from the middle ages. Security is a joke with rude untrained personnel and the immigration officials who I dealt with had trouble understanding my passport. One of them kept turning it around and around as if he expected something to fall out. Shunted off to another official only compounded the problem. It was wonderful to put them in the rear view mirror.

A surprisingly pleasant experience no hassle no fuss. Only complaint is long queues at immigration but no different than any airport I've experienced. From collecting baggage to walking out of airport must have taken less than 30 minutes. Definitely not the India I used to know.

Hyderabad is my home town and I must say is a very good airport in comparison to other bigger cities. The washrooms are clean and tidy. Not much to complain. Very good shopping arcade but rates are high. Overall an extremely well managed airport.

I have used this airport almost on a fortnightly basis from the time it was opened. It is easily one of the most efficient clean and traveler friendly airports I have seen. Check-ins are faster security check is hassle free wash rooms are impeccably clean baggage has never been mishandled even customs clearance is smoother. I can check-in hours prior to the flight and still would not feel bored. Should be considered as one of the best airports in the world in its category.
