⚠️ IndiGo terminal at DEL — Not Fixed
📋
IndiGo does not operate from a single fixed terminal at Delhi airport.

Your terminal depends on your specific flight number and date. The confirmed terminal is printed on your boarding pass and shown in the IndiGo app under "My Trips".

Possible terminals: T1, T2, or T3 — check boarding pass

IndiGo operates across all three terminals at Delhi IGI. After the partial T1 roof collapse in June 2024, IndiGo flights were redistributed to T2 and T3 as well. The terminal for your specific flight depends on the route, flight number, and day — it is printed on your boarding pass and shown in the IndiGo app under "My Trips". Do NOT assume T1 for every IndiGo flight.

⚠️ Important: Delhi IGI has three active terminals and IndiGo operates from all three depending on the flight. Always check your boarding pass or the airline app for your confirmed terminal before leaving for the airport. Allow 30–40 min for inter-terminal transfer if needed.
