6E INT-INT transfer at BLR
Has anyone done this? Prices on Indigo from DXB to KUL are really attractive, and I'd prefer that to an Air Arabia flight out of Sharjah, but I wonder how efficient the BLR transit is.
Is there even a way to transit in BLR that does not require an Indian transit visa (Australian & EU passport)?

If its in one reservation you won't need a visa. Indigo in BLR will call out for transit pax to KUL and arrange for your transit.

If you are not on a single ticket then getting an E-visa is pretty simple as well.

The trouble with the visa is that it requires a list of all previous visas and entries to India, and that list is getting rather long. I'll do it for when I actually go to India, but if I can avoid it for a connecting flight then that would be appreciated.
6E sell these connections on one ticket, so I should be good.

The next time you do this, make an Excel sheet with all the info and keep adding future trips to this sheet so it's a simple copy paste for future use.
