Flights to Dehradun
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Dehradun is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Dehradun Jolly Grant Airport (DED), 20 km (12 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 7,000 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dehradun Jolly Grant Airport (regional) | DED | 20 km (12 mi) | 7,000 ft | 1,831 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,000 ft, DED handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 1,831 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
