Kuching is one of the international origins we route to Kashmir most often, typically connecting through Malaysia Airlines via Delhi or Mumbai before the final hop to Srinagar (SXR). Door-to-door travel time from Kuching to the valley runs around ~10-11h total, via Kuala Lumpur then Delhi, plus the DEL-SXR connection, and every itinerary we build for Kuching-based travellers accounts for that connection buffer rather than treating it as a single flight.
Because this is an international itinerary, we build in realistic layover and immigration buffers at the Indian gateway city rather than assuming a tight same-day connection - something generic package sites routinely get wrong for Kuching departures.
