Bengaluru man’s 2-hour airport commute takes as long as 1,500-km flight: 'I'm done with this city’

A Bengaluru man has expressed his exasperation with the city's traffic, claiming his two-hour journey to Kempegowda International Airport is comparable to a 1,500-kilometre flight. The man, known as @mr.bhasad on Instagram, shared a video showing his traffic-filled commute to the airport. In the video, he compares his journey to that of a passenger who had flown across 1,500 kilometres in just two hours.

"Bro, I am so fed up with Bengaluru airport," he said, "I came here to pick someone up, and their flight was two hours long. How long did it take me in traffic? Two hours. Crossing three states from 1,500 kilometres away, I reached here in two hours, but I haven't been able to reach the airport, bro. I'm done with this city." The post has sparked a wave of comments from social media users who have shared their own experiences of long journeys to Bengaluru's airport.

Many users have responded with humor, with some joking about another Indian city. The post highlights the widespread frustration with Bengaluru's traffic congestion, with airport commutes often serving as a stark example of the city's broader commuting challenges.
