BMTC Vayu Vajra KIA-8D Sarjapur Road to Airport Timing & Route
In the wake of consistent demand from East Bangalore citizens, the BMTC Vayu Vajra KIA-8D route has been launched from Sarjapur Road to the Airport.
Since their introduction, the Vayu Vajra buses have successfully addressed the woes of commuters traveling to and from the Airport.
The Vayu Vajra buses have garnered immense popularity thanks to their dedicated and efficient services connecting the airport with various parts of the city.
As a result, citizens’ demand for the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) to expand the bus service to cover more areas across the city has increased.
In response to persistent demands from citizens in East Bangalore, the Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC) has introduced a new Vayu Vajra KIA-8D connecting Sarjapur Road to the Airport.
In addition, the BMTC has also launched another Vayu Vajra Route – 500 HS connecting Sarjapur Road and Hebbal.

You can take BMTC buses that operate between Electronic City and Bangalore International Airport, passing through Doddanekkundi. However, the best option would be to take the Vayu Vajra Bus KIAL-4 from HAL Main Gate, which is located approximately 4–5 km from Doddanekkundi. The frequency of the KIAL-4 bus is better compared to the KIAL-8. For more information, you can contact the Airport Enquiry at: 7760991269.
