Looking for cheap flights from Mumbai to Belgaum? FlightGPT compares live BOM to IXG fares across every connected source — Indian carriers, OTAs and trusted travel agents — and shows the cheapest options side by side. Whether you want a Mumbai to Belgaum non-stop tomorrow, a last-minute weekend deal or the lowest price three months out, every active Mumbai-Belgaum fare is one search away.
The non-stop on this route is flown by Star Air, the Bengaluru-based regional carrier, on its Embraer jets (E175 and ERJ-145). Expect roughly one non-stop a day, covering Mumbai to Belagavi in about 1h 15m — the quickest and simplest way to make the trip.
Crucially, IndiGo does not fly this route non-stop: it offers only 1-stop connections via Bengaluru or Hyderabad, which stretch the journey to 3–4 hours or more. So if you want a direct flight, Star Air is effectively your option. Go First and Jet Airways are defunct, and Vistara has merged into Air India — none serve Belagavi. Given the thin schedule, also keep the road and rail alternatives in mind.
Mumbai to Belagavi is a short 490 km hop south-east into northern Karnataka. The Star Air non-stop takes about 1h 15m on its Embraer aircraft.
If the non-stop’s single daily timing does not suit you, the alternative is a 1-stop connection — typically Mumbai to Bengaluru or Hyderabad on IndiGo, then a short onward leg to Belagavi. That doubles or trebles the journey to roughly 3–4 hours plus layover, so the non-stop is well worth targeting. For a route this short, the 7–8 hour road drive is also a realistic option for some travellers.
Belagavi is a regional and business destination rather than a tourist peak, so demand is steadier than on leisure routes — but the single daily non-stop means seats are limited and fares firm early.
| Period | Demand | Typical fare trend |
|---|---|---|
| Jul–Sep (monsoon) | Low–moderate | Softest fares; heavy rain in the region |
| Oct–Feb (pleasant season) | Moderate–high | Firmer; best weather and business travel |
| Festivals & long weekends | High | Dearest; book early |
| Mar–Jun | Moderate | Eases outside holiday peaks |
Because there is just one non-stop a day, a sold-out flight forces you onto a much longer and often pricier connection — booking ahead matters here.
Book 2–4 weeks ahead to secure the single daily non-stop before it fills. Compare the Star Air non-stop against a Mumbai–Bengaluru–Belagavi connection — on quiet days the connection can be cheaper, though it costs you hours. For a short regional hop like this, also price the train and road options, which can be far cheaper if you are not in a hurry. A hand-baggage-only fare and a mid-week departure trim the cost further.
With essentially one non-stop a day, your departure time is set by Star Air’s timetable — check it when you book. If that slot does not work, the IndiGo connection via Bengaluru or Hyderabad gives more flexibility across the day, at the cost of a longer journey. For connections, choose one that lands you at the hub with a comfortable 1.5–2 hour buffer so a delay on the first leg does not cost you the onward Belagavi flight.
Business travellers: Belagavi is largely a business and government destination — the Star Air non-stop is the only time-efficient option, so book it early and confirm the daily timing. Families: the short non-stop is far gentler than a 3–4 hour connection with children; if the timing fails, the overnight train is a comfortable alternative. Students: the cheapest realistic options are the monsoon-season non-stop booked ahead, a connection on a quiet day, or the train — compare all three for this short, thinly-served route.
Mumbai (BOM): Star Air and IndiGo operate from Terminal 1 (T1); Air India uses Terminal 2. Confirm your terminal on the ticket, as T1 and T2 are about 4 km apart with no airside connection. Belagavi (IXG): Belagavi Airport, also called Sambra Airport, is a compact single terminal about 10 km from the city — small, quick to clear, and easy to navigate.
At Mumbai: allow generous time for the city’s notorious traffic. App cabs, airport taxis and the Metro serve the terminals; check whether you fly from T1 or T2 before you set off.
At Belagavi: Sambra airport is around 10 km from the city centre — one of the closer regional airports. App cabs, autos and pre-paid taxis reach the centre in 20–30 minutes. Public transport from the airport is limited, so a cab or a pre-arranged hotel pick-up is the easiest option.
On Star Air, standard regional allowances apply — typically 15 kg checked and one 7 kg cabin bag on economy fares, though smaller Embraer jets can mean tighter cabin-bag limits, so check before you fly. On an IndiGo connection booked as one ticket, the usual 15 kg checked plus 7 kg cabin applies and bags tag through. For the typical low-cost rules see IndiGo baggage; always confirm Star Air’s own allowance for the non-stop, as it differs by fare.
Belagavi sits in the Western Ghats foothills and is greener and cooler than much of the Deccan. The monsoon (June–September) is heavy and can affect visibility, so build in buffer time on monsoon-season flights. October to February is the pleasant season — mild days and cool evenings, ideal for visiting. Mumbai’s own monsoon can cause departure delays, so an earlier flight is safer in the rains. Carry a light layer for Belagavi’s cooler evenings.
Don’t assume IndiGo flies this non-stop — it doesn’t; the only direct service is Star Air’s once-daily Embraer flight. Use FlightGPT to compare that non-stop against a Bengaluru/Hyderabad connection, and for a hop this short, weigh the comfortable overnight train too.

No. IndiGo offers only 1-stop connections via Bengaluru or Hyderabad on this route, which take around 3 to 4 hours including the layover. For a non-stop, Star Air is the option.

Under DGCA rules from 26 March 2026, you can cancel or amend within 48 hours of booking without an airline cancellation fee (fare difference still applies). On cancellation or no-show, all statutory taxes and fees are refundable, with refunds due within 7 working days for card payments and 14 working days via agents or portals.
Star Air economy fares typically include 15 kg checked and a 7 kg cabin bag, though the smaller Embraer cabin can mean tighter hand-baggage limits — check before you fly. IndiGo connections follow the usual 15 kg plus 7 kg; see /airlines/indigo/baggage.
Web check-in generally opens around 48 hours before departure and closes shortly before the flight. Complete it early to choose your seat and protect against an oversold flight; confirm the exact window on Star Air’s site for the non-stop.
Yes. Belagavi sits in the Western Ghats foothills and the June–September monsoon is heavy, which can affect visibility, while Mumbai’s own monsoon can delay departures. Build in buffer time and prefer earlier flights during the rains.
Yes. Infants under two fly on an adult’s lap at a nominal infant fare; carry proof of age. Request a front-row seat where available, and pre-arrange any assistance at both airports.
Policies vary by carrier and aircraft. IndiGo does not carry pets in the cabin on domestic flights; check directly with Star Air for its pet policy on the Embraer non-stop, as small regional jets often have limited provision.
The Star Air non-stop (about 1h 15m) is far quicker than a 3–4 hour connection via Bengaluru or Hyderabad. Only consider connecting if the single daily non-stop is sold out or its timing does not suit you — and for this short distance, the train is also worth comparing.
Sambra airport is about 10 km from central Belagavi — one of the closer regional airports. App cabs, autos and pre-paid taxis reach the city in 20 to 30 minutes.
