Kashmir Tour Packages from Lucknow: Flights, Trains and Cost

Is there a direct flight from Lucknow to Srinagar?

No. Momondo's page lists direct flights as none, and Skyscanner says no airlines currently offer direct flights and finds flights with stops from ₹14,642 for a return. Momondo's sample listings all connect at New Delhi. Its booking data shows Air India leading with 43%, then IndiGo with 39% and Air India Express with 19%. Skyscanner names IndiGo as the cheapest airline.

These are Momondo's sample listings and will differ on your dates. Momondo says typical return prices run from ₹12,892 to ₹18,391, and its lowest one-way fare in the past 72 hours was ₹7,868. Skyscanner's cheapest flight found is ₹7,373 and its return fares for next month start from ₹15,523. The sites name different cheapest months, October on Momondo and January on Skyscanner, and Skyscanner's booking advice is around 40 days ahead of departure.

Which trains run from Lucknow towards Kashmir?

ConfirmTkt lists three trains from Lucknow to Jammu Tawi, the last stop before the Vande Bharat to Srinagar:

Cleartrip's own estimate for Lucknow to Jammu Tawi is 17 h 20 min, and its train, taxi and bus route to Srinagar takes 30 h 9 min. It also gives Lucknow to New Delhi by train as 6 h 40 min, and the distance to Srinagar by road as about 1,312 km and a drive of 20 h 12 min. The Vande Bharat to Srinagar starts at Katra, and the Katra to Srinagar guide describes it. IRCTC has the live timetable, because days and timings change, and how to reach Kashmir lines up every option.

Flight or train from Lucknow: which suits you?

The flight is faster on paper, but it connects at New Delhi and the samples above take from under seven hours to over ten. The trains run through the night and reach Jammu Tawi in the morning or early afternoon, which suits people who dislike a long layover or want to add a Vaishno Devi visit. The cost of the train is time at the other end: the Vande Bharat leg to Srinagar comes after. Our Vaishno Devi and Kashmir page shows the order we suggest for travellers who add the shrine.

What does a Kashmir trip from Lucknow cost?

The land package from TDI is made of deluxe rooms, a Shikara ride, taxes, daily breakfast and dinner, and a private vehicle that handles the Srinagar airport pickup and drop; airfare, lunches and entry fees are your own. The table opens at four nights because the journey is long, and its last column adds one return fare from Momondo's typical range.

Figures are per person, and a train fare would take the flight's place in the last column. The overview's starting price is ₹8,550 per person; the exact rate and availability for your trip come back on WhatsApp ahead of booking. For a wider budget, open Kashmir trip cost.

Which column matters depends on how you travel. By train, replace the flight in the last column with the fare IRCTC shows for your date and leave time for the final leg to Srinagar; by air, the Delhi connection decides how much of the first day is left. The land package itself is the same either way, so only the first and last days change shape.
