Airport Express metro from IGI Terminal 3 — avoid taxi scams and save 800+ rupees

Taxi touts at IGI Airport will quote ₹800-1200 for rides that cost ₹60 on the Airport Express metro. Don't fall for it.

Airport Express runs every 15 minutes from Terminal 3 directly to New Delhi Railway Station. Journey takes 19 minutes with AC coaches and luggage space. Operating hours: 5:00 AM to 11:30 PM. Ticket costs ₹60 regardless of destination.

Transfer connections: New Delhi Station connects to Blue Line (Dwarka-Vaishali) and Yellow Line (Samaypur Badli-HUDA City Centre). Use Exit 3 for main concourse and line transfers. Even prepaid taxi counters charge ₹400-500 for identical routes.

Only take taxis if you arrive after 11:30 PM or have 4+ heavy bags. For 90% of arrivals, Airport Express saves money and beats Delhi traffic.
