Flights from Mumbai to Dubai

Trade between Mumbai's docks and the Gulf predates aviation, and the route today carries much the same mix: merchants and traders, bankers, families of workers settled in the United Arab Emirates, and holidaymakers heading for the beach and the shopping malls. Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in the north of Mumbai is the default departure, with Navi Mumbai International Airport as the alternative; Dubai Airport, by the Creek, is the default arrival, and Dubai World Central the other option on the results.

About this route

At the Mumbai end, the airport comes before anything else. BOM is in the northern suburbs and fits the island city and Bandra Kurla Complex; NMI is across the harbour and only better if you are coming from Navi Mumbai or the Pune side. Then fix the dates, the number of travellers and whether you want the return in the same booking. Dubai's default arrival, DXB, is near Deira, the Gold Souk and the Creek, which for traders and families from Mumbai is often exactly where they are going; Bur Dubai and Karama, across the water, have long been home to Indian shops and restaurants. Downtown, Jumeirah and the Marina lie further down the coast, and DWC is beyond them near Jebel Ali, so a result that lands at DWC calls for a longer drive to the older districts. Dubai's summer is very hot and dry, a different heat from Mumbai's humidity, and its winter is mild. Choose the hotel and the transfer on AI Concierge when you book the flight, and check the entry rules for your passport before you travel.
