Bengaluru Airport is a modern facility that operates 24 hours a day. However, the overnight experience varies considerably between its terminals: while Terminal 2 offers a more spacious, attractive and quieter environment, Terminal 1 is often noisy and crowded due to the high volume of domestic flights. Bringing warm clothing is recommended, as the air-conditioning system generally maintains low temperatures during the early hours of the morning.
Rest Areas and Comfort
In the public areas of both terminals, most seats are fitted with fixed armrests, making it difficult to lie down. Thanks to its "garden terminal" design, Terminal 2 offers quieter corners and a more relaxed atmosphere for passengers looking for a place to sit and rest. For a higher level of comfort, the recommended options are the 080 Transit Hotel, located in the departure areas of both terminals, or access to the 080 Lounges, which feature dedicated relaxation areas and operate around the clock.
Baggage Management
To rest more comfortably, the airport provides left-luggage facilities operating 24 hours a day. These are located in the arrivals area of Terminal 1 and on Level 0 of Terminal 2, allowing passengers to store their luggage securely before check-in.
Services Available Overnight
- Food and drink: Several cafés and fast-food outlets remain open 24 hours a day in the departures and arrivals areas of both terminals.
