Udaipur Airport Reviews:
- Sridhar R:
It is a small airport with limited aircraft operation. Neat and clean and well maintained with limited seats for sitting in the departure lounge. Only one cafeteria is available and they charge all Food items with exorbitant rates. Quite traveling distance from the city. Uber charges are between two hundred and two hundred fifty. Overall, it is a nice airport with good, spacious parking facility.
- Paul Ancheta:
This is a remarkably clean and spacious airport, which is a rather symbolic way to enter and leave one of the cleanest and most orderly cities in India. The security queues can get very long, which otherwise gives a good sense of safety and security thoroughness.
