A social media post has sparked debate after Bengaluru resident Manish Kumar Singh shared a video on Instagram claiming his road commute to Kempegowda International Airport took longer than his flight to Kolkata. In the video, he is travelling by car from HSR Layout in Bengaluru to the airport. The post compares the duration of the ground trip with the time spent on the air journey to Kolkata, with viewers reacting to the apparent difference. The reports describe the claim as a personal experience highlighted through social media rather than as an official assessment of travel times or traffic patterns. The discussion centers on whether the commute time reflects typical conditions, including traffic on Bengaluru routes to the airport, and on how such comparisons should be interpreted given variations in traffic, time of travel, and flight schedules. The incident has drawn attention online but does not include any findings from airport authorities or traffic agencies in the available coverage.
