Rajiv Gandhi International Airport to Hyderabad

Pushpak Airport Liner (TSRTC) – City Centre / Nampally / Secunderabad routes

Air‑conditioned TSRTC ‘Pushpak Airport Liner’ buses run 24/7 from the airport to central Hyderabad areas including Nampally, Abids and Secunderabad, with services every 20–30 minutes and a journey time of about 60–90 minutes depending on traffic. Look for the Pushpak bays outside arrivals; these are the main public bus options into the city centre operated by the state transport corporation.

Pushpak Airport Liner – JBS / Secunderabad corridor

Dedicated Pushpak services operate between the airport and Jubilee Bus Station (JBS) via Secunderabad Railway Station, Secretariat, Nampally and Afzalgunj, giving direct links to the historic core and intercity bus hub. Services are frequent through the day and night, but allow extra time at peak hours due to city traffic.

TSRTC City Buses via Aramghar (e.g. routes AC 300, 90L/251)

Some regular TSRTC city bus routes serve stops near the airport access road (Aramghar / Shamshabad), from where you can connect towards the old city and central areas. These are cheaper but slower and less convenient than the Pushpak airport buses, especially with luggage.

Prepaid / radio taxi from HYD

Official prepaid and metered radio taxis are available 24/7 from stands outside arrivals and offer direct door‑to‑door service to Nampally, Abids and other central districts. Typical fares to the city centre are roughly ₹700–₹1,000 depending on traffic, time of day and exact destination.

App‑based cabs (Uber, Ola)

Ride‑hailing services such as Uber and Ola operate from marked pickup zones outside the terminal and connect directly to central Hyderabad. Pricing is dynamic; they can be cost‑competitive with taxis but waits may be longer at busy times or late at night.
