Cached-fare history: across 6 months, Mar is the cheapest for DEL → KUL. Best time to be there: May–Jul.
Fares bottom out in March around $298 and peak in December near $445 — a $147 spread across the 6 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 7 hours outbound, on a 13-night trip — ticketed under Vietnam Airlines, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $298 for 3,838 km each way, that works out to about $39 per 1,000 km flown. That is about the $39 typical of medium-haul fares here. Across the 3 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Kuala Lumpur, this fare ranks 3rd — 54% above the $194 from Shanghai. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 18 routes of similar length we watch out of Delhi, where the middle fare is $341.

How far in advance should I book DEL → Kuala Lumpur?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 6 months of cached fares, Mar comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Delhi to Kuala Lumpur?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Vietnam Airlines. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
