One-way drops from Mysore — and the one that dominates
Every other city on this site has a mixed spread of one-way destinations. Mysore has one that outweighs the rest: Bengaluru airport.
Not Bengaluru city — the airport. It is a 193 km run, usually departing in the dark, and it is the journey this city books more than any other. It is also the clearest case anywhere in our network for booking one way rather than round: you pay for your direction plus the minimum rather than for a 386 km round trip you only use half of.
The second pattern: ending a loop, not returning
The other distinctly Mysore one-way is the onward drop.
A great many visitors here are on a two-to-four-day southern loop, and Mysore is in the middle of it rather than at the end. They finish here and continue — Coorg, Wayanad, Ooty, or down to Kozhikode or Mangalore to fly home.
Booking that as a round trip means paying for a return to Mysore you never make. Tell us the actual plan and it is a drop.
The borders, and the barrier
Karnataka, no permit: Bengaluru, Coorg, Mangalore, Hassan, Chikmagalur, Hampi. Kerala, permit applies: Wayanad, Kozhikode, Kannur. Tamil Nadu, permit applies: Ooty, via Gundlupet.
And the constraint that is specific to drops heading into Kerala: the road runs through Bandipur, which closes to traffic overnight. That sets the departure window for a Wayanad or Kozhikode drop — the reserve decides, not the passenger. We plan the timing around it rather than arriving at a closed barrier.
Where we suggest a round trip instead
Coorg for a couple of nights, or Srirangapatna and Brindavan Gardens for the day. In both cases a round trip costs less than two drops and the car waits for you.
Coorg in particular is worth stressing: arranging a car there at short notice for a return leg is genuinely difficult, and the fare difference is smaller than the inconvenience. We will say so on the phone.

Drop Taxi in Mysore — FAQs
What is the most common one-way drop from Mysore?
Bengaluru airport, by a wide margin — well ahead of Bengaluru city itself. It is a 193 km run, usually pre-dawn, and it is the journey this city books more than any other.
I am finishing a Mysore trip and flying home from Kozhikode. Can you drop me there?
Yes, and it is a sensible plan rather than an unusual one. It crosses into Kerala so a permit applies, and the road runs through Bandipur, which closes overnight — so the departure time is set by the reserve, not by your preference.
Should I take a drop to Coorg or a round trip?
If you are travelling onward from Coorg, take the drop. If you are going for a couple of nights and coming back to Mysore, a round trip costs less than two drops and the car stays with you — which matters more in Coorg than most places, because getting a car there at short notice is not easy.
Which drops from Mysore cross a state border?
Wayanad, Kozhikode and Kannur are Kerala. Ooty is Tamil Nadu. Bengaluru, Coorg, Mangalore, Hassan and Chikmagalur are all Karnataka. Permits are charged at actuals and quoted before you travel.
Is a drop to Bengaluru airport cheaper than a round trip?
Considerably, if you are not coming back — you pay for your direction plus the minimum rather than for a 386 km round trip. It is the single clearest case in our network for booking one way.
