Question 1

What is the price of an Umrah package from Amritsar?

Accepted Answer

Umrah packages from Amritsar (ATQ) start from approximately ₹88,000 per person for economy options, including a connecting flight via Dubai or Abu Dhabi and onward to Jeddah, 3-star accommodation in Makkah and Madinah, shared transfers, and Saudi Umrah visa. During peak Umrah season, when ATQ operates direct or charter Jeddah flights, packages can be more competitively priced. Premium 5-star packages start from ₹2,53,000. We compare direct and connecting options to identify the best value for your travel dates.

Question 2

Does Amritsar Airport (ATQ) have direct flights to Jeddah for Umrah?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport in Amritsar has operated direct Jeddah services during Hajj and Umrah seasons through Air India and IndiGo, including charter flights arranged for the Hajj pilgrimage organised by the state. Year-round, one-stop connectivity via Dubai (Emirates, Air Arabia, flydubai) and Abu Dhabi (Air Arabia, Etihad) is available for Umrah pilgrims. We confirm the availability of direct vs. connecting options at time of booking based on your travel window.

Question 3

Is Amritsar or Delhi better for Umrah departure from Punjab?

Accepted Answer

For pilgrims from Amritsar, Gurdaspur, Pathankot, and eastern Punjab, ATQ is clearly more convenient than Delhi (400 km away by road). ATQ's Gulf connectivity via Dubai and Abu Dhabi, combined with seasonal direct Jeddah services, makes it a strong Umrah departure option. However, Delhi (DEL) offers more daily direct Jeddah flights and competitive pricing from a wider range of airlines. Pilgrims from Ludhiana or Jalandhar — roughly equidistant between ATQ and Chandigarh — may find any of the three airports viable, and we compare all options.

Question 4

Do you serve pilgrims from Gurdaspur, Batala, and Pathankot via Amritsar?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport is the most convenient departure gateway for pilgrims from Gurdaspur (50 km), Batala (30 km), Pathankot (75 km), and Tarn Taran (30 km). These border districts have Muslim communities with pilgrimage traditions, and ATQ's Gulf connectivity makes it the natural Umrah airport for this region. We provide dedicated packages for pilgrims from these districts and can coordinate local transport to ATQ for group departures.

Question 5

What is the best time for Umrah from Amritsar?

Accepted Answer

October through March is the optimal Umrah window from Amritsar — Makkah temperatures are comfortable (15–28°C) and Punjab's dry winter season makes travel pleasant. ATQ's Gulf connectivity is strongest during this period. Ramadan Umrah (typically March–April) is spiritually meaningful for Punjab's Muslim community and requires 4–5 months advance booking, particularly for seasonal direct Jeddah services from ATQ which fill quickly. The summer months (May–July) bring intense heat to both Punjab and Makkah, making this the least recommended period for Umrah.
