Why Mumbai is the cheapest Indian metro from Dubai
Compare the 12 month return averages across our India route guides: Mumbai about AED 1,274, Delhi about AED 1,359, Hyderabad about AED 1,451, Chennai about AED 1,465 and Kochi about AED 1,538. Mumbai is the lowest of the five.
One reason is the number of seats. Emirates, Air India and IndiGo alone run more than 80 direct flights a week between Dubai and Mumbai, before counting SpiceJet and flydubai. With that much capacity, sale fares appear more often than on routes with only a handful of daily flights.
Dubai or Sharjah for Mumbai?
On this route Dubai has been the cheaper airport. Sharjah to Mumbai averaged about AED 1,353 return, around AED 79 more than from Dubai. Sharjah has Air Arabia (14 direct flights a week) and Air India Express (7 a week).

Sharjah still makes sense if you live in Sharjah, Ajman or the northern emirates and the fare gap on your dates is small. The taxi to Dubai airport can wipe out a small saving.
Direct ou avec un seul arrêt ?
Direct returns averaged about AED 1,302. The cheapest one stop option in the data connected through Amritsar at about AED 861 return, roughly AED 442 less. Most one stop itineraries connect in Bahrain (46%) or Muscat (28%), and the shortest one stop trip, through Delhi, takes about 8 hours 22 minutes one way against 3 hours 15 minutes direct.
- One stop can be worth it if you travel alone, carry light baggage and have a flexible day either side.
- Stay direct with small children, elderly parents, a tight leave approval or heavy baggage, because a missed connection costs more than the saving.
Mumbai now has two airports
Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMI) opened for flights on 25 December 2025. Its first international route, Air India Express to Abu Dhabi, started on 15 July 2026. When we checked in November 2026, flights from Dubai still landed at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International (BOM).
If your family lives in Navi Mumbai, Panvel or towards Pune, ask us to compare Dubai to BOM against Abu Dhabi to Navi Mumbai. The drive from BOM to Panvel can take longer than the flight on a bad traffic day.
Timing your Mumbai trip
- Noël et Nouvel An 2026 : December is the peak month and the 18 week window has passed, so book now rather than waiting for a drop.
- Summer holidays 2027: July is the second most expensive month. Booking 18 weeks ahead means around early March 2027.
- Ganesh Chaturthi 2027 (4 September): September is the quietest month on this route, with about half the usual travellers, so festival trips can still find fair prices if booked around early May 2027.
- Diwali 2027 (29 octobre) : book by late June 2027.
- Mousson: Mumbai rains run roughly June to September. Keep a buffer before any onward train or domestic flight.
Flights run around the clock. The earliest leaves Dubai at 03:55 and lands at 07:10; the latest leaves at 23:40 and lands at 02:55. Only about 8% of departures are in the morning, so if you need to land in daylight with children, check the schedule before you pay.
Baggage on low fares
The cheapest fares on this route are often hand baggage only. A first checked bag in economy, when added later, cost between AED 18 and AED 235 depending on the airline. Compare the fare with baggage, not the headline price. Carrying gold jewellery? The duty free limits under the India Baggage Rules 2026 are explained in our Guide de Dubaï à Kochi.
