Q: Which flight is best for early morning and late-night travel from Varanasi to Leh?

A: For early morning travel, flights departing between 5:30 AM and 7:30 AM are ideal as they offer a smooth airport experience with less congestion and timely departures. These are great for business meetings or same-day return trips. For late-night travelers, flights post 9:00 PM work well for those looking to avoid daytime rush. These flights are often more affordable and suitable for flexible schedules. Many airlines operate both early and late flights on the Leh–Varanasi route, so choosing one depends on your preference for comfort, check-in times, and access to ground transport at the destination.
