The routing

How you actually get there.

Singapore and Kuala Lumpur both offer strong single-stop options at around 21 hours. An overnight Singapore connection keeps your travel day intact rather than landing you in Mumbai at 3am.

Who we book this for

Business travellers, Gujarati and Maharashtrian families, and holidaymakers connecting on to Goa or Kerala.

When to book

Timing moves this fare more than anything else.

Avoid the June to September monsoon unless you know what you're signing up for — the city genuinely floods. November to February is the best weather and the fares are reasonable outside the Christmas peak.

What people get wrong

Things worth knowing before you pay.

  • 01

    Mumbai has two terminals and the domestic-international transfer takes time. Leave at least three hours if you're connecting onward.

  • 02

    If Goa is your real destination, ask us to price the domestic leg together with the international ticket rather than booking it separately.

  • 03

    Immigration queues at Mumbai can be long at peak arrival times. A daytime arrival is worth paying a little more for.
