Abu Dhabi to Mumbai

From Abu Dhabi, to either door of the city.

Abu Dhabi is one of the busiest roads into Mumbai from abroad, and since July 2026 it reaches both of the city's airports: Santacruz, as it always has, and Navi Mumbai at Ulwe, across the harbour. They are an hour or more apart. The house reads the ticket, watches the flight from Zayed International, and has a sarathi at the right one.

I

Which airport

Flights into Santacruz land at Terminal 2 of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International (BOM). Since July 2026 Air India Express has also flown between Abu Dhabi and Navi Mumbai International (NMI) at Ulwe. Read the ticket once more — or send the flight number, and the house reads it for you.

II

The flight, watched

The house follows the flight from Zayed International; a delay re-times the car without a word from you. The house waits two full hours after an international landing and ninety minutes after a domestic one, counted from the gate, with your flight watched from take-off.

III

Met inside arrivals

Your sarathi stands past customs with a board in your name and sends his photograph and the car's number before you land. He takes the trolley; the car is cooled and waiting a short walk away.

IV

Write from your own number

WhatsApp +91 81202 86868 from your UAE number. A person answers in writing between 7 AM and 11 PM India time — 5:30 AM to 9:30 PM in Abu Dhabi — and the road is watched at every hour.

If you land at Navi Mumbai

Navi Mumbai sits on the road to Pune, and across the Atal Setu from South Mumbai. Landing at NMI, you may be closer to where you are going than you think — Pune, Lonavala and Alibaug are a short way on in the same car. Navi Mumbai Airport sets out the roads and the hours.

Reserving for someone else

For parents or a guest flying from Abu Dhabi, say so on the form; the confirmation says plainly who is travelling, and the house writes to you when they are with the sarathi and when they are home. For parents arriving sets out how.

Inside every written figure: the car, your sarathi, fuel, every toll, parking at both ends and GST. Nothing is added on the day, and no meter runs.

Questions guests ask

How long is the flight from Abu Dhabi to Mumbai?
About three hours. Mumbai is an hour and a half ahead of Abu Dhabi.
Do flights from Abu Dhabi land at Mumbai or Navi Mumbai?
Both, depending on the airline: Santacruz (BOM) Terminal 2, or, since July 2026, Navi Mumbai International (NMI) at Ulwe. Send the flight number and the house reads it for you.
How far apart are Mumbai's two airports?
Some forty kilometres — an hour or more by road, depending on the hour. If you land at one and fly out of the other, tell the house both flights.
How long will the driver wait?
The house waits two full hours after an international landing and ninety minutes after a domestic one, counted from the gate, with your flight watched from take-off.
Can I pay with a card issued in the UAE?
Yes, through Razorpay. The figure is written in rupees; your bank converts it.
Do you need my passport?
No. A name, a number and a flight are enough.
