Mumbai at a Glance

Mumbai is India’s financial and entertainment capital, home to Bollywood, the Gateway of India monument, and a fast-paced mix of colonial-era architecture and modern high-rises. It’s a popular gateway for both leisure travellers and business visitors, with easy onward connections to the rest of India. Winters (November to February) bring the most comfortable weather, summers (March to May) are hot and humid, and the monsoon (June to September) brings heavy rain but often the cheapest fares.

When to Book

Booking 8-10 weeks ahead is generally a good way to secure a more competitive fare
Fares can rise quickly around Diwali, Christmas, New Year and the summer holidays, so travelling outside these peak windows can help
Flying midweek and staying flexible on dates can also help bring the fare down
Off-peak return fares on the direct London routes have generally run in the £320-£480 range, rising to somewhere between £550 and £850 in peak season – this varies enough by source that it’s worth confirming against current live fares before publishing a firm figure
