A brand-new air link to Daman
Daman Airport sits inside the Indian Coast Guard air station at Daman and only began scheduled passenger flights on 16 Jul, 2026, when Alliance Air launched a Delhi service flagged off by the Civil Aviation Minister. Mumbai and Ahmedabad were added on 25 Aug, 2026. Because the airport and the route are both new, timetables are still settling, and the operator may change days or timings as demand becomes clearer. Treat this as a young service: read the schedule on your ticket closely, keep your phone number on the booking so the airline can reach you about changes, and search close to your date on FlightGPT to see whether the flight is selling on the day you need.
Alliance Air's Mumbai–Daman schedule at launch
At launch, Alliance Air published this pattern, operating on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday:
- Depart Mumbai 07:05, arrive Daman 07:45.
- The same aircraft leaves Daman at 08:10 and reaches Ahmedabad at 09:20.
- On the return, it leaves Ahmedabad at 12:35, reaches Daman at 13:45, departs at 14:10 and lands in Mumbai at 14:50.
The early slot means a day trip is possible on flying days: you can be in Daman before 8am and catch the afternoon return. On the other four days of the week there is no flight, so weekend travellers leaving Mumbai on a Friday evening will still need road or rail. These timings were the launch plan and may be revised.
Early start at Mumbai airport
A 07:05 departure means reaching Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport by about 05:45–06:00. Mumbai's roads are relatively clear at that hour, so from Bandra or Andheri a cab usually needs 20–30 minutes; from Thane, Navi Mumbai or South Mumbai allow 45–60 minutes. Alliance Air is part of the AIAHL group and typically operates from Terminal 2, but always confirm the terminal shown on your boarding pass. Complete web check-in the day before to skip the counter queue. Turboprops often board by bus from a remote stand, so arrive at the gate early — gates for small aircraft close sooner than you might expect at a big airport.
Baggage on a small turboprop
Alliance Air's ATR aircraft carry fewer than 80 passengers and have small overhead bins. Its standard economy allowance has been 15 kg of checked baggage, and cabin bags must be compact — confirm both limits on your fare before you fly, since rules on new routes are sometimes updated. Large wheeled cabin bags are often tagged at the aircraft steps and carried in the hold. For a short Daman break, a soft duffel bag is easier. If you are a business traveller carrying samples or equipment to the Vapi or Daman industrial estates, prepay any excess weight online; turboprops have weight limits, and excess space can be restricted on a full flight.
Arriving at Daman Airport and getting into town
Daman Airport is close to the town, so the ride to Nani Daman or Moti Daman is short — usually a few kilometres. Because scheduled flights only started in 2026, taxi and auto-rickshaw supply at the terminal may still be thin, especially early in the morning. It is sensible to:
- Ask your hotel or office to arrange a pick-up.
- Save the number of a local taxi before you fly.
- Carry some cash for short rides.
Vapi railway station, the main rail gateway for Daman, is about 12–15 km away; Silvassa is roughly 30 km inland. Devka and Jampore beaches are a short drive from the town centre.
Why fly to Daman instead of taking the train?
Until 2026, everyone reached Daman by road or by train to Vapi on the Mumbai–Ahmedabad line. Fast trains from Mumbai Central or Borivali reach Vapi in roughly 2.5–3.5 hours, and the road trip on NH48 takes 4–5 hours depending on traffic near Thane and the Ghodbunder stretch. The flight is clearly quicker in the air, but once you add airport time it saves most when you are coming from the western suburbs near the airport and travelling on a Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday. Business travellers heading to factories in Daman, Vapi or Silvassa, and families visiting relatives for weddings, are the most obvious users. For a relaxed weekend, the train is still the more flexible choice.
What draws Mumbai travellers to Daman
Daman is a former Portuguese enclave on the Gujarat coast, now part of the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu. Its draws include the Moti Daman fort and its churches, the Nani Daman jetty and fort, the seafood shacks along Devka and Jampore beaches, and a laid-back pace that is very different from Mumbai. Unlike neighbouring Gujarat, Daman is not a dry territory, which has long made it a weekend stop. It is also an industrial hub, with pharmaceutical, plastics and packaging units around Daman and Vapi. Winter, from November to February, is the most comfortable time to visit; the monsoon from June to September brings heavy rain and rough seas.
Planning tips for Mumbai–Daman
With only three flights a week, plan around the flying days rather than expecting a daily service. Check whether the return you need falls on a Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday; if not, consider flying one way and taking the train back from Vapi. Monsoon weather on the Konkan and south Gujarat coast can delay turboprops, so avoid tight onward connections in July and August. Keep an ID such as Aadhaar or a passport handy for both airport security and hotel check-in. For the opposite journey, read our Daman to Mumbai flight guide. Search on FlightGPT to see whether seats are on sale for your date, then book with the airline or travel partner.
