Flight from London Gatwick to Amritsar

Non-stop services on Air India cover the 3,946-mile hop to Amritsar in around nine hours (the published block time varies between 8 hr 15 min and 10 hr depending on season and schedule) and normally run up to four times a week, though the airline has paused the Gatwick-Amritsar rotation until at least 15 July 2025 as part of a wider network reshuffle.

If you prefer or need to travel while the direct flight is on hiatus, Southall Travel can route you through the Gulf or Europe with its roster of airline partners. Typical carriers include Air India itself as well as Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad, Vistara, KLM, British Airways and others, giving you one-stop options via Doha, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Delhi or Amsterdam with journey times of 12–14 hours.

On arrival, Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport (ATQ) is a compact gateway about seven miles north-west of the Golden Temple, just off the Ajnala Road near the village of Raja Sansi. There is no rail spur yet, so the quickest onward connection is a 20-minute taxi or rickshaw ride to Amritsar Junction, the city’s main station, where long-distance trains fan out across northern India.

Southall Travel frequently features deals on both direct and one-stop flights, allowing travellers to choose between affordability and convenience.
