Attention!!!! Delhi resident members.
How long should it take by CAB from T2 to NZM Station around 6pm on Weekends?
What are the Airport Metro options from T2 to any closer stations of Nizamuddin Station?

Re# 3431801-6              
Any guess, what's the average delay of 18237 at NZM.
I will have to take into account the flight as well which will be starting at morning time from somewhere and will be on duty from Kolkata at 230pm to Delhi at 5pm.

So Whats the advise? Try for 12903?
Only 1 case in this, if my flight to DEL is late (One Off UnLucky- D Day scenario) and 12903 is more or less perfect, I will be in Big bowl of soup.
Was just tracking the flights path from CCU-DEL, realized that The actual flight starts from DEL at 530am before it goes to Kolkata and then returns to Kolkata from somewhere else before again flying to Delhi. Hence, a big exclamatory mark on its On-Time performance!!!

Your train got delayed by 90-100 mins at NZM which is quite normal for this train (!!!)and same kinda late even in this Summer :-).
NZM-SBB/SRE was abnormal, i think.

Re# 3431801-15              
Thanks for the exhaustive info/advise.
I think it would be quite safe to catch 18237 Chattisgarh Exp at 830pm (this train runs approx minimum 1-2hrs delay) after deboarding at 5pm (if flight is on time)

Re# 3431801-16              
Is the MAGENTA Line of Delhi Metro operational?
Then i think IGI 1D Terminal station to OKHLA NSIC can be reached in 15mins and then take Auto to Nizamuddin station which might be 20 mins max.
Is there too much crowd in MAGENTA LINE which would creste problem for us to carry luggages & to get in and get down in the metro on a SATURDAY Evening?

think TRANSIT from Airport to Nizamuddin station can be done max in 45 mins comfortably.
