Looking for cheap flights from Mumbai to Phuket?

IndiGo is the main operator with frequent daily non-stops (around 14 weekly flights) on A320/A321neo aircraft. Akasa Air has added daily non-stop service (around 7 weekly). Between them there are roughly 2–3 non-stop departures a day, with extra capacity in the high season. Note that some carriers add or drop frequencies seasonally, so the exact daily count varies through the year — check your dates. Connecting options via Bangkok also exist but the non-stop is faster and usually similarly priced in season.
Non-stop block time is about 4 hours 20 minutes to 4 hours 35 minutes over roughly 3,000 km. With Thailand 1 hour 30 minutes ahead of India, departures are timed so you arrive in Phuket the same day with plenty of time to reach your beach resort.
Phuket's dry, cool season (November–April) is peak — best weather, highest demand and fares, with December–January and Indian holiday weeks the priciest. The cheapest months are the May–October monsoon (green) season, when prices drop but rain and rougher seas are more likely. Book 6–10 weeks ahead for the high season; 3–6 weeks for the monsoon. Fares are live and change daily — check current prices in the FlightGPT search.
Compare IndiGo and Akasa directly on your dates — both are low-cost, and one is often clearly cheaper. The monsoon months carry the lowest fares if you can accept some rain. Travel cabin-bag-only or pre-buy checked baggage online (cheaper than at the airport). Mid-week departures usually win. Watch for low-cost carrier sales and let the FlightGPT search compare live fares across direct and connecting options.
Mumbai (BOM) — all international flights use Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Terminal 2 (T2); allow extra time during the evening international wave. Phuket (HKT) has an international terminal (T1) and a domestic terminal (T2). It's a compact, single-runway airport in the island's north; immigration is usually straightforward. Pre-arrange your hotel transfer or use the official airport taxi/minibus desks — the main beaches (Patong, Karon, Kata) are 40–60 minutes south.
Both operators are low-cost. IndiGo international fares typically include 20–30 kg checked + 7 kg cabin depending on fare — see IndiGo baggage. Akasa Air international fares also vary by fare family. Always check your specific fare and pre-buy any extra baggage online, where it is much cheaper than at the airport.
As of 2026 Indians can enter Thailand under a visa exemption for tourism, currently up to 60 days, and most travellers must complete the online Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) before arrival. Carry a passport valid 6+ months, proof of onward/return travel and proof of funds. The exemption period and rules can change — verify on the official Thai immigration/TDAC portal before you fly. See the Visas guide.
Phuket itself has Patong's nightlife, Old Town's heritage streets and beaches all along the west coast. Most resorts arrange airport transfers; otherwise use metered/airport taxis or apps. Phuket is also the gateway to the Andaman islands — speedboats and ferries run to Phi Phi, James Bond Island and Krabi for day trips or onward stays. Book popular tours ahead in high season.
Carry some Thai baht for taxis, markets and street food; cards and QR wallets are common at hotels and malls. Pack reef-safe sunscreen, light clothing and a rain layer in the green season. Respect beach-safety flags — red means dangerous currents, especially in the monsoon. Pick up a local SIM/eSIM on arrival for transfers and maps.
Phuket offers a complete beach holiday in one short non-stop from Mumbai — white-sand beaches, island-hopping to Phi Phi and Krabi, water sports, vibrant Patong nightlife, Phuket Old Town's Sino-Portuguese charm and famously good Thai food and value.
