From Delhi IGI Airport to Connaught Place hotels, a sedan is the most popular and comfortable choice costing approximately ₹500–700. The 16–18 km journey takes 30–45 minutes without traffic. The Airport Expressway Metro is a budget option at ₹60 to New Delhi station but involves luggage handling. Pre-booked EZPZ Taxi ensures a driver with nameplate waiting at T3 arrivals — call +91-9871121217 or book at ezpztaxi.com. For business hotels in CP, a sedan is perfect.
1 Answer
Delhi IGI Airport (T3) to Connaught Place (CP) is 16–18 km — a 25–40 minute drive via NH-48 and Ring Road. Here's what you need to know:
T3 Airport → Connaught Place Fare (2026)
| Vehicle | Fare | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 🚗 Hatchback | ₹450–550 | Solo traveller, light luggage |
| 🚙 Sedan (Dzire) | ₹550–650 | 2–3 people, standard luggage ✅ Recommended |
| 🚕 SUV (Ertiga) | ₹700–850 | Group of 4–5 with heavy luggage |
Which Vehicle for CP Hotels?
For most travellers staying at CP-area hotels (The Imperial, Radisson Blu, The Claridges, Le Meridien, etc.) — a Sedan is the right choice. Comfortable, AC, handles luggage for 2–3 people easily.
For a group of 4+ with multiple large suitcases after an international flight — book an SUV or Innova for comfort.
Route: T3 → Connaught Place
Airport → NH-48 → Dhaula Kuan → Ring Road → Connaught Place
No toll on this route (the Gurgaon toll is in the opposite direction). Clean, fast, well-lit road — even at 2 AM.
Why Pre-Book vs Airport Taxi Stand or App
- Airport prepaid taxi stand: ₹800–1,000 for this route — 50% more than EZPZ
- App cabs at 11 PM–3 AM: Often surging to ₹1,000–1,500, or simply unavailable
- EZPZ pre-booked: Driver waiting with nameplate at T3 Arrivals — same fare day or night
