I'm sure APT PR will get on this tomorrow for you but i understand that in most cases you will need to get a connecting flight to Goa from either Delhi (3 hours) or Mumbai (1 hour)....there are not many direct International flights to Goa although i understand that 'in season' there are frequent charter flights from Europe. I only know all this because Poker Portal is now making plans to cover APT Goa with its live reporting from the event.... and I'm hoping to go...our nice chief editor please note.

Hi stevendj , There are many daily flights from Mumbai and Delhi to Goa , I believe Goair has also just started a 9.30pm flight from Mumbai

You certainly heard correctly " Goa is a wonderful place"
