Recently my GoAir flight from Nagpur to New Delhi was cancelled. I have an international flight (Emirates) from New Delhi International Airport. The other options GoAir people are giving me is of another flight which is not a direct flight but via Pune. The GoAir flight is expected to arrive at Delhi Domestic Airport at 00:45 AM and my international flight's departure time is 04:00 AM. I am wondering is 3 hours enough for me to move from Domestic to International airport?

Can I ask the airline people to book my flight in other airlines as the flight got cancelled and it's their fault?

It's enough time if all goes according to plan. However, you've got very little buffer if anything goes wrong, and going via another airport means the odds of something going wrong are multiplied. Personally, I would not risk it.

Unfortunately your options are limited here. GoAir is a low-cost carrier and you've booked your connecting international flight yourself: they're responsible for getting you to Delhi, but whether or not you make the connection is not their problem, so they're very unlikely to be willing to pay to put you on a different airline.

In your shoes, I would either:

  1. Ask them to transfer you to a flight that gets you to Delhi much earlier, eg. the previous day, or
  2. Ask them to refund the money for your cancelled flight, and book a direct flight on a different airline, paying the cost yourself.

You have enough time it hardly takes 15 to 20 minutes to go from T1C to T3 and the check-in counter closes only before 90 minutes and there is also a Shuttle transfer between T1C to T3 every 1/2 hour you just have to produce
