Route overview
Route: Dubai (DXB) → Mumbai (BOM) | Distance: ~1921 km | Flight Time: 3 hr 12 min | Starting Fare: From AED 364 one-way (IndiGo, reported by EaseMyTrip UAE, Oct 2026)
Dubai to Mumbai is one of the most-flown international routes into India, with Emirates, IndiGo, Air India, Air India Express, SpiceJet and flydubai all flying it nonstop. That competition keeps base fares low outside the summer and holiday rush, and comparing carriers is where most of the savings come from. Two things are different this season. Indian carriers are still rebuilding Dubai schedules after the 2026 Gulf airspace disruption, and Mumbai’s Terminal 1 closes on 25 October 2026, with some international flights moving to Navi Mumbai. Check whether your ticket shows BOM or NMI.
