Location insights
Rajiv Gandhi International is the GMR-built gateway to Hyderabad, Telangana and the Deccan, India's fourth-busiest airport and a fast-growing tech and pharma hub. A single integrated terminal, expanded east in 2023 and west in 2024, handles domestic and international flow under one roof, anchored by IndiGo with over 100 daily flights alongside Air India. Mornings push the domestic metro and international departure banks, midday holds connecting dwell, evenings fill arrivals and the city shuttle stands toward Secunderabad. One integrated terminal, one tech-city audience. Buy the banks, not the dead hours.
Departures and check-in fill in the early-morning and late-afternoon banks. Book those hours and your frequency against business travelers climbs for the same budget.
Gates and the gate holdrooms hold seated, relaxed travelers for 60–90 minutes, long windows where dwell, not rush, does the work.
Arrivals fills as long-haul flights land in banks, high-value international passengers with time to read. Swap creative to match who just arrived.
Location intelligence summary
Rajiv Gandhi International Airport doesn't have a rush hour; it has flight banks. Departures peak in the morning, long-haul arrivals land in waves, and between them travelers dwell for 60–90 minutes with phones often stowed. The buying model that matches that is hourly: pay for the banks when your audience is captive, skip the dead hours.
| Objective | Book these zones | Best hours |
|---|---|---|
| Brand launch / premium | Departures + Transit | All day · long-haul banks |
| Business travelers | Departures, Gates | Weekday 6–10 AM · 4–8 PM |
| Long-dwell layovers | Gates, Arrivals | 10 AM–8 PM |
| International arrivals | Arrivals, Retail | Aligned to long-haul landing banks |
| Duty-free & retail | Departures, Gates | Departures peaks |
A month-long 24/7 rotation pays for 3 AM plays nobody sees. Hourly booking concentrates the same budget into Rajiv Gandhi International Airport’s proven peak windows, and typically saves 30%+ versus a flat four-week flight.
Security-line passengers read in seconds; gate-side travelers dwell for minutes. Run different creative by hour on the same screens, even trigger swaps on weather or live data.
Every play is logged. Blindspot campaigns report verified plays and attribution, measured against control groups, not estimated reach.
The zones above already draw a specific buyer: Pharma and logistics buyers, since RGIA runs a CEIV Pharma-certified cargo terminal that handles most of India's vaccine and bulk-drug air exports, moving freight forwarders and cold-chain staff through Departures and Transit alongside passengers (see DOOH for B2B), and business travelers, since IndiGo and Air India both run Hyderabad as a hub, filling Departures and Gates on weekday mornings and evenings.

No minimums · no contracts · pay per verified play · hourly scheduling per screen
Four things move the price on any Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (HYD) screen: the format (pricing runs higher on departures-hall spectacular than on departures hall pillars & LED), the zone (Departures hall carries the highest footfall premium), the daypart (peak commute and evening hours price above the overnight lull), and how far in advance you book, since the busiest zones and formats sell out first.
What a campaign costs
Because you pay per play and schedule by the hour, your budget buys the exposure you actually need, not filler plays, so it works as hard on a big campaign as on a small one, with no minimum. Here's what budgets realistically buy. Live numbers per screen are in the platform.
Concourse test
One pier's gate holdrooms across a morning IndiGo departure bank
Multi-zone airport push
Departures hall, security lanes, the domestic and international piers and the arrivals corridor together
HYD flagship takeover
Dominant share of voice across the departures core and the expanded terminal piers
FAQ
No. Blindspot books time on screens that are already installed and permitted by their media-owner operators, Times OOH (GMR airport media), GMR Hyderabad International Airport media concession among them, so you're leasing airtime on an existing structure, not erecting a new one.
Rajiv Gandhi International Airport handled 30.5 million passengers in 2026. The audience is the reason to buy it: air passengers are captive, comparatively affluent, and hard to reach through most channels, and they spend meaningful time in the terminal with attention to spare between check-in and boarding. Dwell is the asset. Unlike a roadside screen read in two seconds, a gate or arrivals placement gets minutes rather than moments, which is why airport placements hold up for brand and considered-purchase messages rather than short reminders. The airport handled over 29 million passengers between April 2024 and March 2025, ranking as India's fourth-busiest by passenger volume. Alliance Air and Amazon Air both hub here, which concentrates connecting traffic through the same core. Because the screens are bookable by the hour, you can match spend to the flight banks that carry your audience instead of paying for a flat month.
Rajiv Gandhi International Airport zones are scored separately for visibility, dwell time and footfall, because the best placement depends on which of those you actually need. Departures hall guarantees exposure to essentially every departing passenger. Security & checkpoint holds attention through a queue, where dwell is involuntary and long. Concourse & gate holdrooms gives the longest relaxed attention, with passengers seated and waiting. Each zone shows its own per-play price and live availability, so you can pair a high-reach zone with a high-dwell one rather than guessing at a single best spot. Arrivals & baggage reclaim catches a recently landed audience with phones back out. Lounges & duty-free reaches a higher-spend traveler before the flight.
Yes. On Blindspot every Rajiv Gandhi International Airport screen is bookable by the hour with no minimum, so you can buy only the morning departures bank or the long-haul arrivals windows that match your audience.
The airport's media is run by operators such as Times OOH (GMR airport media), GMR Hyderabad International Airport media concession; Blindspot aggregates the bookable digital screens onto one map, priced per play.
Often within hours: upload, pass creative pre-check, and digital screens need no printing or installation. Approval typically averages around two business days across networks.
More than the usual airport rate card suggests, because you are buying plays rather than a fixed package. In Rajiv Gandhi International Airport a $500 budget typically funds a multi-day hourly presence across a high-dwell zone such as Concourse & gate holdrooms, or a concentrated burst on Departures hall and Security & checkpoint through the busiest departure banks only. At entry plays around $0.38, the arithmetic is visible before you commit. It will not buy a month of an arrivals-hall spectacular, and that is the trade: hourly, per-play buying lets a small budget own the specific windows when the passengers you want are actually in the terminal, instead of thinning the same money across empty overnight hours.
