Brisbane - Mumbai Flights

The BEST (Brihanmumbai Electric Supply & Transport) operates AC bus services linking the airport's domestic and international terminals to Andheri and Vile Parle railway stations. Routes such as 312 and 321 cost as little as ₹6–80 and take around 20–30 minutes to reach nearby train stations.

These buses can be booked via the Chalo app, and provide budget-friendly access to Mumbai’s suburban rail network. Though economical, they may be less comfortable for tourists carrying luggage.

The Mumbai Metro Aqua Line’s T1 station opened in October 2024 and directly serves Terminal 1, connecting to Andheri and beyond. The ride to Andheri takes roughly 15–20 minutes and suits passengers with light baggage.

From Andheri, you can board the Western Line suburban train to Mumbai Central, CSTM or Churchgate. Combining metro and train takes about 1 hour and costs under ₹100 in total.

At BOM, car rental services include major brands such as Avis, Europcar, Hertz, Gozo Cabs, SS Travels, and others, with counters located within or just outside the terminals.

Economy car rates typically start between US $32–44/day, with deals available if booked 60–90 days in advance. Many suppliers offer unlimited mileage, fair fuel policies, and flexible cancellation terms.

Pre-booked private transfers via platforms like Klook or Welcome Pickups offer door-to-door comfort and reliability. Prices start from around US $14.99 for two passengers, depending on destination and time.

Drivers wait at arrivals and assist with luggage, making this a stress-free option for first-time visitors or those with tight itineraries.

At both terminals, prepaid taxi booths offer regulated fares of around ₹500–600 (~€7–9) to central zones. Metered black‑yellow taxis are also available and generally charge ₹625–700, though fixed-fare counters are safer and more transparent for newcomers.

A taxi/Uber ride to the city centre typically takes 30–60 minutes depending on traffic and costs around ₹700 (~$9) on average.

App-based ride‑hailing services like Uber and Ola operate from designated pickup zones just outside both terminals. Fares are often comparable to prepaid taxis but vary depending on demand and dynamic pricing.

These services offer cashless convenience, fare estimates in advance, and options like larger vehicles or female drivers if requested.
