Surat to Mumbai Airport Cab
Booking a taxi from Surat to Mumbai Airport means about 290 km of road and around 5h of driving. Sedans run at ₹3,999, all inclusive.
About the Surat to Mumbai Airport journey
A 290 km run on NH48, the Mumbai to Ahmedabad highway, normally 5h including one short stop. The middle of this stretch is open highway and moves quickly; the time that varies is at either end, getting out of Surat and into Mumbai Airport.
For a flight out of Mumbai Airport, we normally set the pickup about five hours before departure on this route. That leaves room for the drive, the check in window and a margin for the approach road.
Leaving Surat
Surat pickups are frequently business runs from the diamond market at Mahidharpura or the textile markets at Ring Road. Both are congested, so we allow extra getting out.
This is the natural halfway point on the Vadodara to Mumbai run, and a common place to break a long journey.
Arriving in Mumbai Airport
Because BOM sits inside the city rather than outside it, the approach is the slow part. For an international departure we plan to arrive three hours ahead and leave room on top.
The overnight run from Gujarat is the most common way people do this, arriving in the early morning ahead of a mid morning flight.
