Does IndiGo fly to Australia?
Not with its own aircraft, at least not yet. IndiGo has called Australia an important market and is taking delivery of the longer-range Airbus A321XLR. Trade reports in 2026 say it is preparing a Bengaluru–Perth route, but we haven't seen an official schedule or start date.
If you search for "IndiGo Melbourne" or "IndiGo Australia", you'll mostly find codeshare flights: IndiGo flight numbers on flights operated by partner airlines. IndiGo puts its code on Qantas flights within Australia, such as Melbourne and Sydney to Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth, but the plane you board is the partner's.
How to fly IndiGo on a Qantas ticket
- Book a Qantas ticket to your Indian city. Qantas flies Sydney to Bengaluru (QF67, five a week from 25 October 2026) and Melbourne to Delhi (QF69, seasonal to 27 March 2027).
- Clear immigration and customs where you land in India, Bengaluru or Delhi.
- Take the IndiGo domestic flight, which carries a QF flight number, to your final city.
In 2023 Qantas listed 21 Indian cities reachable this way, including Amritsar, Chandigarh, Ahmedabad, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kochi, Kolkata, Goa, Pune, Jaipur, Lucknow and Thiruvananthapuram. The list can change, so we check your city is on sale for your dates. Because both flights are on one ticket, a delay on the first flight is the airline's problem, not yours.
Baggage
- On a Qantas ticket: When it expanded the codeshare in 2023, Qantas said customers keep their Qantas baggage allowance on the IndiGo flight. That's usually more generous than IndiGo's own allowance.
- On an IndiGo ticket bought separately: 15 kg of checked baggage on domestic flights (one piece), and the lowest fares include no checked bag.
Official page: IndiGo baggage allowance. If you're flying 30 kg from Australia on a separate IndiGo ticket, you'll pay excess baggage in India. Our baggage guide explains the difference.
What it's good for, and what to watch
Good for
- Reaching smaller Indian cities on one ticket from Australia, after a Qantas non-stop.
- Lots of domestic flights. IndiGo is India's largest airline, so there's usually a connection that fits.
Watch-outs
- Low-cost style on board. IndiGo is a low-cost airline, so food and seat choice can cost extra.
- Separate tickets are risky. If you book IndiGo yourself after an international flight, you carry the risk of a missed connection and pay for extra baggage.
- Check the terminal. In Delhi and Bengaluru, the IndiGo domestic flight may leave from a different terminal from the one you arrive at. Allow at least three hours.
