Istanbul to Mumbai

Through Istanbul, met at first light.

Istanbul is how many guests from the Americas and Europe reach Mumbai, and the flight tends to land around dawn — just before the morning roads fill. The house has the car at the kerb when you are through customs, so that you are at the hotel before the traffic is.

I

Which airport

Flights from Istanbul land at Terminal 2 of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International (BOM). Send the flight number and the house reads the ticket.

II

The flight, watched

The house follows the flight from Istanbul; if your first leg was late and you are rebooked, send the new flight and the car is re-timed at no charge. Two full hours after an international landing and ninety minutes after a domestic one, at no charge, counted from the moment the aircraft reaches the gate.

III

Met inside arrivals

Your sarathi stands past customs with a board in your name. When the flight shows landed, he writes to you with a photograph of exactly where he stands; the car is cooled and a short walk away.

IV

Write from your own number

WhatsApp +91 81202 86868 from your Turkish number. A person answers in writing between 7 AM and 11 PM India time — 4:30 AM to 8:30 PM in Istanbul — and the road is watched at every hour.

The room before check-in

A dawn landing often means a room that is not ready until the afternoon. The car can stay by the hour: breakfast where you name, a lounge, a slow drive along the sea, and the door of the hotel when the room is.

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 Istanbul to Mumbai?
About six hours. Mumbai is two and a half hours ahead of Istanbul.
I land at dawn and my room is not ready. What do I do?
Keep the car by the hour — breakfast, a lounge, a drive along the sea — and it takes you to the hotel when the room is.
How long will the car wait at Mumbai airport?
Two full hours after an international landing and ninety minutes after a domestic one, at no charge, counted from the moment the aircraft reaches the gate — three hours and two for Command, Limousine and every Marque car — with the flight watched from take-off.
Can I pay with a card issued abroad?
Yes. The figure is written in rupees and settled through Razorpay, which accepts Visa, Mastercard and American Express cards issued abroad; your bank shows it in your own currency. Your sarathi never asks for money, a toll or a tip.
Do you need my passport?
No. A name, a number and a flight are enough. The house never asks for a document or a deposit.
