Whether it’s a beachside escape or a royal retreat, SpiceJet is making your dream holiday closer than ever. This expansion is part of our larger commitment to strengthen our domestic network and provide seamless, affordable, and delightful travel experiences to our passengers," said Debojo Maharshi, Chief Business Officer, SpiceJet.

"The airline is set to more than double both its daily flights and operational fleet this winter, with several exciting new destinations on the horizon," the carrier said.

Flights to Port Blair have already commenced, while daily non‐stop flights to Udaipur from Delhi and Mumbai will begin November 6, 2025. Tickets are available for booking on SpiceJet’s official website and mobile app.

Passengers flying to Port Blair from Kolkata will enjoy seamless, non‐stop connectivity, while those travelling from Delhi will make a short stopover at Kolkata. The Delhi–Port Blair service is a direct connection with no aircraft change, ensuring a smooth and convenient journey.
