Direct vs connecting: MIA → DEL

| Non-stop flight time | 16.55 h (16 h 33 min) — 850 km/h + 40 min taxi model |
| One-stop total (est.) | ≈ 19.1 h (19 h 6 min) |
| Two-stop total (est.) | ≈ 23.1 h (23 h 6 min) |
| Time-zone shift | 10.5 h ahead (UTC−5 → UTC+5.5) |
Estimates use the site-wide 850 km/h cruise + 40-minute taxi model; real block times drift with winds and routing.

Block time for Miami → New Delhi is about 16.55 hours non-stop on the site's cruise model. The slider's steps are anchored on typical hub dwell times, which is why the totals sit at 19.1 h and 23.1 h rather than pure multiples.
Ultra-long-haul arithmetic applies here: the 16.55-hour airborne leg is long enough that splitting it at a hub can beat fatigue even when it loses the clock race. The clock moves 10.5 h forward (UTC−5 → UTC+5.5), so a morning departure can land well into the local evening.

Fewer than two fields sit within 300 km of New Delhi, so the radius was widened to 700 km.

New Delhi has no large alternative airport within 700 km in the dataset, so the MIA → DEL routing has no practical substitute endpoint. That leaves MIA → DEL as the only sensible air routing, which concentrates fare power in a single search.
None of these nearby fields has a paired calculator page from MIA yet, so use the distance and time columns to estimate any rerouting yourself. Remember the destination is the point: any airport below that adds more than a couple of hours of surface time to reach New Delhi needs a substantial fare gap to justify.
Landing time and daily budget for New Delhi
Leave Miami at 10:00 and the local arrival clock in New Delhi reads about 13:03, which tells you whether day one is recoverable. Budget the ground side too: a standard day runs $69 in New Delhi versus $279 in Miami (hotel, three meals, two transit rides), so the arrival city sets the trip's marginal cost.
A $210 per-day gap favors staying longer in New Delhi and moving on from Miami quickly. With 10.5 hours gained eastbound, the 13,505 km out to New Delhi ends in a serious jet-lag bill — plan a quiet first day.
