International travel - land in different airport and fly domestic flight to destination [closed]

International travel - land in different airport and fly domestic flight to destination [closed] - Back view of anonymous ground crews in uniforms and headsets meeting passenger helicopter on airfield after flight against cloudless blue sky

There are not many international flights to intended destination and the cost is high. Is it ok with the rules if I land in another city and book a domestic flight separately.

Edit I am travelling from Canada to India. My wife and I have Indian passports and my kid has Canadian passport with Indian travel visa



Best Answer

From a rules point of view, I think you are okay. You can land at any port, go through immigration and enter your final destination address in the immigration form.

I agree with @Willeke, when you give the final destination on sites like expedia/kayak, they show the domestic leg as part of the same journey. I would recommend you do this for two reasons

  1. International flights usually have better baggage allowances and they will let you carry the same number of bags on a connected domestic flight (as it is part of a single reservation)

  2. If for some reason, the international flight is delayed, you will get better support (like being placed on the next available flight) if it is part of the same reservation. A separate domestic ticket will not have the same benefits.
