About the Chandigarh Airport to Katra transfer

Chandigarh Airport to Katra (Vaishno Devi) is a 420 km road journey that normally takes 7h 5m – 9h 20m, depending on traffic, weather and how many stops you make. We run it as a private transfer: one car, one driver, your pickup time — not a shared vehicle and not a meter.

The base town for the Vaishno Devi yatra, at the foot of the Trikuta hills. Common drop points include Katra bus stand, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra railway station, Katra hotels, and we are happy to drop anywhere else in and around Katra.

For airport legs we watch the flight in real time. If you land late the driver waits at no extra cost, and for departures we build in buffer time so you reach check-in comfortably. Pickups run 24 hours, including very early morning and post-midnight flights.

At 420 km this is a long single-day drive, so we plan meal and tea stops into the schedule. Many customers book it as a one-way transfer, or as part of a two- or three-day itinerary with the same driver.

Your fare is quoted upfront and includes fuel, tolls, state permits and driver allowance. You pay online when you book, and you receive the driver's name and number before pickup.
