12 hours in BLR

We are flying Indigo from Goa to BLR, arriving at 4:15pm. We depart at 4:30am on Emirates (business class) to DXB. It appears we will land in Terminal 1 and depart from Terminal 2.

We are considering a car service to take us into Bangalore for dinner/shopping during the layover. When would we be able to access terminal 2? Also confused about lounge access. We have priority pass.

Unless it had changed in last 1 month, until mid Jan the lounge in T2 international was accepting only credit/ debit cards with access (no PP)

As for dinner in Bangalore, if you can share your interest, we maybe able to help you. You can also find good discounts at many places on GIRF on swiggy/dineout app

Prestige Golfshire JW Marriot should be about 30 mins from BLR airport and has some good restaurants (Indian, Pan asian and 1 more with options for outside and poolside dining) there is also a nice bar including some partly sunken seating

If you are flying business on Emirates they will invite you to a lounge after checkin. Checkin usually opens about 3 hours before departure.

Expect to be allowed back into the terminal after 12:30am. Security will not let you in before that. The Emirates counter won't open till about an hour or so after that.
