Tips for 35 min Connections
Allow extra buffer since GOI is a military-civil joint-use airport with strict security procedures and occasional slot restrictions.
If connecting between domestic and international terminals, budget time for a full re-screening and immigration/customs process.
Airport signage and facilities are basic, so confirm your terminal in advance since many travelers assume it's a single building.
Avoid tight connections during early morning and evening peak charter/tourist flight banks when queues lengthen.
Since GOI is not a true hub, self-transfer itineraries carry higher risk—consider through-checked bags and airline-coordinated connections only.

High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 sit close together on the same airside campus, linked by a short shuttle bus ride or a walkable path outside secure zones. Passengers switching between domestic and international terminals must exit and re-clear security and immigration/customs as applicable, as there is no sterile inter-terminal corridor.
