Going to Kolkata airport through Howrah or Kolkata city is really troublesome. Traffic jams are common and you get uneasy feeling while you wait in your cab which is trying to push through traffic.
However, once you are out from city, new city area is highly developing zone. You get to Kolkata airport and you feel relaxed with the best of airport facilities.
Security checkin and food is awesome. Sweets are available at airport if you forgot to buy some for your loved ones. However, it is costlier for obvious reasons.

When the new terminal was inaugurated I was happy that finally Kolkata would get its share of a new state of the art airport. It seemed all fancy with the glassy exteriors and a good looking terminal approach. The entire thing was faltered once I was in the airport. A faulty WiFi connection, broken lounge chairs, a tiny and a pathetic duty free, no available cafes and eatery outlets, faulty airconditioning, rats in the washroom and cockroaches around.. Hopeless for such a new airport. The funniest and the craziest part was that I had crows and pigeons flying over me in the international terminal building ! Random and crazy. The staff at the airport were less than helpful who were sleeping on the floors at the time when most international flights are scheduled. What nonsense ! Compare that to other international terminals across the country which may be smaller, this airport is an absolute piece of dump. Sorry to say, I have seen this airport with many important connections back in the 1990's. Every year major airlines pull out of this airport due to its lack of infrastructure despite it having enough customers to different parts of the world ! British Airways, KLM, Lufthansa etc. all have withdrawn their services from this ghastly and idiotic terminal which looks all flashy from outside but indeed a garbage bin from the inside. Not even 3 years in full time service and this is what it has become !! God save the city of Kolkata !

Getting to the Airport is terrible..one should give at 4 hrs advance travel time. Not much to do food court is terrible....no wifi..Airport interiors are too sliver for my liking...some green plants at the departures would be nice. It's the only airport with birds flying inside the terminal. Was horrified to see birds at the airplane parking bay.
