Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) is Mumbai’s primary international and domestic gateway, functioning as a major hub for full-service carriers and some low-cost airlines; it typically handles the bulk of long-haul and premium traffic. The airport sits about 20–25 km north of South Mumbai’s business districts, with road transfer times usually ranging from 30–90 minutes depending on traffic; taxis, app-based cabs, and airport buses are common options with fares that can vary widely. The local suburban rail network and limited metro links can be faster at peak times but often involve transfers. Pros: extensive amenities, many flight choices. Cons: congestion and longer transit times during rush hours.
Juhu and smaller heliports around Mumbai serve mostly private, charter and helicopter transfers rather than scheduled commercial flights, and can be useful for time-sensitive or luxury transfers to the city’s west side. These facilities are typically close to central neighborhoods—often under 20 minutes by road—making them convenient for executive or leisure travelers prepared to pay a premium for speed and privacy. Pros: proximity and quick transfers. Cons: limited schedules, higher cost and minimal passenger services compared with the main airport.
