About the KIA 14 airport bus route
KIA 14 is a BMTC Vayu Vajra AC Volvo service linking Royal Meenakshi Mall to Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) at Devanahalli. It's best known for serving bannerghatta road (royal meenakshi mall). Fares run ₹300–₹360 depending on your boarding stop, and buses arrive every 30–60 mins.
