Mumbai Flights

Busy and bustling, yet vibrant and warm, Mumbai is a city that can initially seem overwhelming, but with a bit of exploration, it’s understandably a haven for tourists.
Historically rich and surprisingly modern, this destination is home to such attractions as the Haji Ali Dargah and the Jehangir Art Gallery, the Mahalkshmi Temple and the Brabourne Stadium.
As this location is often packed with visitors trying to soak up the exciting array of activities, it is no surprise that cheap flights to Mumbai are easy to find if you do some forward planning.

Best time to go to Mumbai

Peak Season:

From November through February, Mumbai can be very congested, as the streets are filled with both locals and excitement-hungry tourists.
If you can manage to find cheap accommodation and flights to the city, this is an excellent time to go, as shopping hubs like Chor and Zaveri bazaars bring out their best merchandise.
As the weather is marvellous at peak season, it’s also a great time to go on a Bombay Heritage Walk or watch the sun set on Marine Drive.

Shoulder Season:

Because of humid, close weather of March to early August, the city sees a decline in tourism, and a drop in the price of flights. If you do not mind the climate, this is an excellent time to visit the Mani Bhavan museum, take part in the Elephanta Festival, or take an early morning walk through the Five Gardens.

Off Season:

Though the heat of mid-August through November drives most tourists away, the adventurous traveller will take this time to enjoy such events as the Ganesh Chaturthi and Navratri, or mingle with the locals at the Vie Lounge and the Mocha Bar.

Mumbai Airport and Transfer Information

Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (BOM)
Distance: 28km to downtown Mumbai
For the first time traveller, taking a pre-paid taxi may be the best option. Although local buses are readily available and inexpensive, they can be crowded and a bit intimidating. Taxis can be expensive, but it is possible to get a better deal if you ask multiple drivers about their rates.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Mumbai?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Mumbai in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mumbai?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Mumbai in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
