Yeshwantpur to Bangalore Airport cab, shared from ₹400

Yeshwantpur is about 33 km from Kempegowda International Airport and the drive takes 55 to 85 minutes. A shared QuicReach cab from here, picking up near Yesvantpur Junction, Orion Mall, Goraguntepalya, starts at ₹400.

How far is Bangalore airport from Yeshwantpur?
About 33 km, roughly 55 to 85 minutes. Only Hebbal and Yelahanka are meaningfully closer, because Yeshwantpur is already on the northern side of the city.
Can the cab pick up from Yesvantpur Junction railway station?
Yes. Name the entrance when you book. Yesvantpur has platforms served from both the Tumkur Road and the Yeshwantpur side, and they are a long way apart on foot.

Slightly, and more reliably so. From Majestic the distance is similar but the first two kilometres are through the interchange. From Yeshwantpur you reach Bellary Road sooner.
