By plane - The airport is just 15 km north-east from the city-centre. The airport is expanding with permissions for many international air lines being given and development of new terminals.
There are a few direct international flights to London, New York, San Francisco, and
Chicago as well as Kuala Lumpur, Muscat, Kuwait, Sharjah and Qatar and
Singapore. From October 28th 2007 Emirates will fly 6 times per week between
Dubai and Ahmedabad. Singapore Airlines has daily flights between Singapore and
Ahmedabad.
Ahmedabad is well connected domestically via daily flights from Mumbai, Delhi,
Indore, Chennai, Bangalore, Goa, Kolkata and many other Indian cities and towns.
By train - Ahmedabad is connected with Bombay (aka Mumbai) (500 km) and
New Delhi with trains several times a day. Besides its connected with most other
major Indian cities and all the states through direct or through-fare trains. There are
also many flights to both cities and to Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai and
Kolkata.
By car - ou could drive to Ahmedabad from Mumbai on the new highway that's
been built but it will take you around 10 hours to do the 550 odd Kilometers. It's an
interesting drive and will take you through some very scenic areas, and you will pass
Vapi, Valsad, Surat, Vadodara, Anand, and Nadiad on your way. Driving to Delhi is a
very tiring journey but could be interesting as you can stop at Udaipur, Ajmer and
Jaipur on your way, but you'd want 3 days to make this drive.
