Route overview
Route: Mumbai (BOM) → Dubai (DXB) | Distance: ~1921 km | Flight Time: 3 hr 5 min | Starting Fare: From USD 168 one-way (IndiGo, reported by MakeMyTrip Global, Oct 2026)
Mumbai to Dubai has more nonstop competition than almost any international route from India, from Emirates to five Indian and UAE low-cost carriers. That means fares are usually lower outside December and the long-weekend rush, provided you compare carriers. This season you also need to check your departure airport. Mumbai T1 closes on 25 October 2026, and some Dubai flights now leave from Navi Mumbai. Visa-on-arrival rules for Indians also changed in 2026. Confirm BOM or NMI on your ticket.

Airlines Flying Mumbai to Dubai
Emirates (about 4–5 a day), IndiGo (about 3 a day / 21 a week), Air India (about 2 a day / 14 a week), SpiceJet (up to 2 a day), Air India Express (about 1 a day from BOM; NMI service listed) and flydubai (varies) operate nonstop. Google Flights also lists Air Arabia nonstops from Mumbai, but these go to Sharjah (SHJ), not Dubai. A HappyFares guide claims 40+ daily nonstops and includes Akasa Air, but that could not be confirmed and is likely a pre-2026 figure.

When to Book Mumbai to Dubai Flights for the Best Price?

Allow 2–3 months for Diwali and year-end.
Prefer Tuesday–Thursday
Friday–Sunday is usually dearer.
Compare very late and late-evening IndiGo departures
They are often cheapest. Dubai is 1h 30m behind India, so a 22:20 IST departure lands just after midnight local time. Check hotel check-in times.

Fare strategies
Tips to Get the Cheapest Mumbai to Dubai Flight
Tips to get the cheapest Mumbai to Dubai flight:
Compare all six carriers
The low-cost spread on this route is wide.
Travel in Dubai’s summer if you can cope with the heat
Outbound fares are at their lowest.
Check NMI departures too
They sometimes price differently from BOM.
Avoid Friday evening departures before long weekends
Friday–Sunday is usually dearer.
Use Gulf 30 kg allowances
IndiGo and Air India Express include 30 kg on Gulf routes, so you rarely need to buy extra baggage for shopping trips.
Book year-end trips before October
Christmas–New Year and Diwali trips should be booked 2–3 months ahead.
Do not treat Air Arabia Mumbai nonstops as DXB
Google Flights lists Air Arabia nonstops from Mumbai, but these go to Sharjah (SHJ), not Dubai.

Choose your flight
Which Mumbai to Dubai Flight Should You Choose?
Emirates is the comfort choice, with free bags, meals and arrival at Terminal 3 on the Dubai Metro. For value, IndiGo and Air India Express usually lead, and their 30 kg Gulf allowances make them practical for families. If you are staying near Dubai Marina or Downtown, a T1 or T3 arrival on the Metro Red Line saves taxi fare. Air India Express lands at T2, which has no metro.
