A few shops and eateries are available, but we have no details. WiFi is free for 45 minutes, but you may need an Indian mobile number for access.
Sleeping in Trivandrum Airport
Travellers may be able to spend the night, at least in the international terminal, but we have had some mixed reviews on this. Have a backup plan in case security guards don’t allow you inside. For uninterrupted sleep, private resting rooms are available to rent in the domestic terminal. Other hotels are within walking distance of the domestic terminal. See our Airport Hotels section below for more info, or read some traveller airport reviews for more tips.
