Flights from Jaipur to Udaipur
by doclee
We are visiting in October and are scheduled to travel from Jaipur to Udaipur on a Sunday. Are there any direct flights from Jaipur to Udaipur on that day? Several sites on the internet give Jetair flight 9W709 or 9W2207 as leaving at 0700hrs and arriving at 0745hrs but I am unable to find the Jetair site at which I can book. All the search engines fail to find this flight but come up with flights via Delhi of Mumbai, typically with waits between flights of between 4 and 7 hours. Does anybody know whether Jetair flight 9W709 or 9W2207 actually exists and if so how can I book onto it? Failing that, is there a train between the 2 cities which doesn't go overnight?
Travel by road, I'm afraid, is for various reasons ruled out.
Many thanks for any help.

Hi Tony - I have just booked for a party of 4 a direct flight from Jaipur to Udaipur on a November Sunday evening. The service provider is Kingfisher Red and is a 1hr direct flight costing 2400INR per person. The package was booked with MakeMyTrip.com. Hope this helps - I too was struggling to find a direct flight and faced the 2 step journey via Mumbai or Delhi.

The exterior chiseled work at Nagda is abundant and though worn generally outstanding. The Sas-Bahu Temple does have an entrance but most of the other temples stand isolated and unencumbered by tourists.
