How to reach Andaman from Bangalore is simpler than for most other Indian cities, a direct flight to Port Blair, with no layover needed. IndiGo, Air India, and Air India Express all run the Bangalore to Port Blair route and seat availability have held up well through the year, unlike some island routes that thin out badly outside peak season. 
An Andaman trip from Bangalore takes about 2 hours 40 minutes on a true nonstop, though some direct flights run closer to 7 to 9 hours if they stop at Chennai or Vizag along the way. Round-trip fares generally fall between ₹24,000 and ₹35,000 in economy. 
Once the flight's booked, WanderOn's Andaman tour packages run as fixed group & private departures as well as private trips covering Port Blair, Havelock, and Neil Island together, with ferries between islands already having been worked out. From Bangalore, you only need to book one flight, and the rest is already taken care of.

How to Reach Andaman from Bangalore: Flight, Ship, or Road?

For a Bangalore to Andaman trip, flying is really the only practical route if you are keen to discover the best of Andaman & Nicobar tourism. The alternatives exist on paper but rarely make sense once you compare the time involved.

Direct Flights from Bangalore to Port Blair

IndiGo, Air India, and Air India Express operate direct flights from Bangalore to Port Blair, and Bangalore to Andaman flights run through the week rather than on a handful of fixed days, which helps if your leave dates are tight. Direct here doesn't always mean nonstop, though. 
Some of these flights touch down at Chennai or Vizag on the way without a change of aircraft, which is why the duration swings anywhere from 2 hours 40 minutes on a true nonstop to close to 7 to 9 hours on a flight with a longer stop built in. 
It's worth checking the exact routing for how to reach Andaman from Bangalore before you book if a long ground halt doesn't suit your plans. Round trip economy fares generally fall between ₹24,000 and ₹35,000, and they climb noticeably around Diwali, Christmas, and the April-May school break.

What is the best time to fly from Bangalore to Andaman?

October to May is the window most Bangalore to Andaman trips are built around, with calm seas keeping the Havelock and Neil Island ferries running on schedule. June to September brings the southwest monsoon, and rough seas during these months can delay or cancel inter-island ferries with little notice, which throws off a tight itinerary fast. 
Our travel tips for Andaman guide covers this in more depth if you're planning around specific dates.

Andaman Tour Packages from Bangalore

Every Bangalore to Andaman group tour WanderOn runs is a fixed departure with a set itinerary, not a customized or private trip, and ferry transfers between islands are booked in advance as part of the package.

Booking an Andaman tour from Bangalore this way also protects you from the ferry sellouts that catch independent travellers out during peak season. Most itineraries build around Radhanagar Beach on Havelock and a couple of quieter stops on Neil Island, with a look at beaches in Andaman worth a read before picking a package.

Is There a Ship Route to Andaman from Bangalore?

Not directly. Passenger ships to Port Blair sail from Chennai, Kolkata, and Visakhapatnam, none of which are Bangalore. Even if you routed through Chennai first, the sea crossing itself runs 50 to 60 hours one way, so a return sea journey alone would eat up most of a short holiday. It's a real option for someone already in Chennai with time to spare, not a sensible plan starting from Bangalore.

How to Reach Andaman from Bangalore by Road and Rail

There's no road or rail connection between mainland India and the Andaman Islands, since the islands sit roughly 1,200 km out in the Bay of Bengal. Flying or, less practically, sailing from an eastern port are the only two ways in.

How to Reach Andaman from Bangalore: Permits Required

No permit is required for Indian citizens visiting Port Blair, Havelock Island, or Neil Island, which covers almost every stop on a standard itinerary. Foreign nationals need a Restricted Area Permit, usually issued on arrival at Port Blair airport or online in advance, valid for 30 days. 
The one hard restriction that applies to everyone, Indian and foreign alike, is the Jarawa tribal reserve along parts of the Andaman Trunk Road and North Sentinel Island, both completely off-limits to tourists.
