Peak season:
Travellers that book cheap flights to Delhi will be captivated, and probably somewhat overwhelmed, by India’s capital, and second most populous city. Inhabited since the 6th century BC Delhi is split into the old and the new. Old Delhi is the chaotic, crowded symbolic heart with a tangle of streets, bustling bazaars and spiritual temples. While New Delhi’s wide treelined boulevards are the result of colonialera town planning and houses the official seat of government. This collision of new and old, planned and organic is what gives Delhi its energy and, many Indians believe, its soul. Spring (February to April) and autumn (October to November) are the peak times for visitors to take flights to Delhi. This is when the weather is optimal for sightseeing with temperatures averaging 18C - 22C and the humidity is lower. Winter (December to January) is also a great time with hardly any rainfall and afternoon temperatures of around 20C. It does get chilly in the mornings and evenings so layers are recommended.
Off season:
Between April and June, the summer temperatures can reach up to 45C putting off all but the staunchest of tourists. The monsoon (July to mid-September) can make for a wet visit but photography wise it will produce some stunning images. Look out for the cheapest flights to Delhi during this period.

If weather is an important factor for your trip to New Delhi, use this chart to help with planning. For those seeking warmer temperatures, June is the ideal time of year to visit, when temperatures reach an average of 34.0 C. Travellers hoping to avoid the cold should look outside of January, when temperatures are typically at their lowest (around 14.0 C).
October through March is the best time to book your flights to Delhi. Spring is a great time for walking tours and viewing landmarks such as the Red Fort and the Lotus Temple. Visit Delhi in autumn for a number of film, drama, music and literature festivals. If you plan to visit in October for Diwali, the festival of lights, be sure to book your flight tickets and accommodation well in advance, this is the country’s most significant celebration of the year.
