Reach Khajjiar By air

Khajjiar's connectivity poses a challenge for travellers. The nearest airport, Pathankot, located 75 km away from Dalhousie, serves as the primary domestic gateway. However, fog-related flight cancellations are a common occurrence, making travel unpredictable. The Pathankot Airport stands 3 km from Pathankot city and 7 km from the Pathankot Railway station, but public transport options are limited. Cabs are the sole means of commuting from the airport to Dalhousie and further to Khajjiar, covering an additional 24 km. The Gaggal airport, situated 162 km away in Kangra district, offers another option. However, it suffers from limited carriers and frequent rescheduling or cancellations due to foggy weather.

Jammu, located approximately 200 km from Khajjiar, hosts regular domestic flights from major Indian cities. Airlines like Vistara, Air India, Indigo, Spice Jet, Go Air, and Alliance Air operate flights to Jammu.
