Kolkata
is a good center for competitive airfares to other parts of
Asia, Europe and the USA's east coast. Along with its domestic
routes, Indian Airlines also flies you regularly to Dhaka (Bangladesh),
Bangkok and Katmandu. There is a direct bus service between
Kolkata and Dhaka and there are several useful bus routes to
other towns in West Bengal for brave and steely folks, leaving
from the Esplanade bus station.
However, it's generally quicker and more comfortable to travel
from Kolkata by train. It has two major train stations, both
of them frenetic, and beware - they're a pickpocket's paradise.
Howrah station, on the west side of the Hooghly, handles most
trains into the city while Sealdah station on the east side
of the river is for trains heading north of Kolkata to Darjeeling.
There are also boats and steamers from Kolkata to the Andaman
& Nicobar Islands.
