Airlines and non-stop options

Mumbai to Vijayawada (VGA, at Gannavaram in coastal Andhra Pradesh) is served non-stop by IndiGo and Air India. IndiGo launched its non-stop in 2024; Air India also operates the sector. Frequencies are modest — VGA is a regional airport — so the two carriers between them typically offer one or two non-stops a day rather than an hourly shuttle.

If a non-stop doesn't suit your timing, plenty of one-stop options route through Hyderabad or Bengaluru. Note that Go First and Jet Airways are defunct and Vistara has merged into Air India — ignore any old listing showing them on this route.

Flight time, distance and routing

The non-stop covers about 1,020 km in roughly 1h 50m, tracking southeast across the Deccan to the Krishna delta. There's no time change — both cities are on IST. A one-stop via Hyderabad adds about 1h 30m to 2h 30m depending on the connection, so the non-stop is well worth it when the timing works.

Best time to book and seasonal fares

With only a couple of non-stops a day, seats in the cheapest buckets go early. Indicative demand:

PeriodDemandFare pattern
Oct–Mar (pleasant season)HighFestivals and weddings firm up fares
Apr–Jun (summer)ModerateHot; mid-range fares
Jul–Sep (monsoon)LowerSoftest fares; watch coastal weather
Sankranti (mid-Jan)Very highAndhra's big festival — book well ahead

Fares are indicative only — confirm the live price before booking.

Getting your fare cheaper

Practical tips for this sector:

Best departure windows

A morning departure from Mumbai is the safest bet — Mumbai's single main runway gets congested through the day, so early flights are least prone to the cascading delays that build by afternoon and evening. A morning arrival also leaves the day free in Vijayawada. In the monsoon, earlier departures dodge the worst of afternoon coastal thunderstorms.

Advice by traveller type

Business: Vijayawada is a growing commercial centre near Amaravati. Book the morning non-stop for reliability and travel carry-on to clear Mumbai quickly. Keep a Hyderabad-connection option in mind as a backup.

Family: the non-stop at under two hours is far easier than a connection with children. Book early for festival travel, especially around Sankranti.

Students and budget travellers: the cheapest seats are often on a one-stop via Hyderabad; weigh the extra time against the saving and book early.

Airports and terminals

Mumbai (BOM): IndiGo operates from Terminal 1 and Air India from Terminal 2 — check your ticket, as the two terminals are several kilometres apart and you cannot walk between them. Arrive early; BOM security queues can be long.

Vijayawada (VGA): a single modern terminal at Gannavaram, about 13–20 km from Vijayawada city. It's compact and quick on arrival, but ground transport is limited — arrange your cab in advance.

Getting to and from the airports

In Mumbai, app cabs and the metro (with a connecting ride) reach both terminals; in heavy traffic allow well over an hour from the suburbs. At Vijayawada, pre-paid taxis, app cabs and some bus services link Gannavaram to the city; supply is thinner around off-peak arrivals, so pre-book if your flight lands late.

Baggage allowance

Standard domestic allowance is typically 15 kg checked plus one 7 kg cabin bag, but the cheapest fares on both IndiGo and Air India may differ — check before you book. See IndiGo baggage for current rules, and confirm Air India's allowance separately if you fly with them. Excess-baggage charges are far cheaper pre-paid online than at the airport.

Travel tips and weather

October to March is the most comfortable time to visit coastal Andhra; summers (April–June) are hot and humid. The southwest monsoon (June–September) and occasional cyclonic systems off the Bay of Bengal can cause delays — keep an eye on the forecast for monsoon-season travel. Sankranti in mid-January is the peak demand window, so book well ahead.

FlightGPT tip

Double-check your Mumbai terminal: IndiGo is at T1, Air India at T2, and turning up at the wrong one with BOM traffic between them is a classic way to miss a flight. If the non-stop is sold out or pricey, a one-stop via Hyderabad is usually the next-best and often cheaper option into VGA.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a direct flight from Mumbai to Vijayawada?

Yes. IndiGo and Air India both operate a non-stop Mumbai–Vijayawada service of about 1h 50m, though frequencies are modest — typically one or two non-stops a day between them.

How long is the Mumbai to Vijayawada flight?

About 1h 50m non-stop over roughly 1,020 km. A one-stop via Hyderabad adds 1h 30m to 2h 30m depending on the connection.

Which airlines fly Mumbai to Vijayawada?

IndiGo and Air India fly the non-stop. Other carriers serve it with connections. Go First, Jet Airways and Vistara no longer operate — ignore old listings.

Which terminal at Mumbai should I use?

IndiGo operates from Terminal 1 and Air India from Terminal 2 at Mumbai (BOM). Check your ticket — the terminals are several kilometres apart and not walkable between.

Which terminal at Vijayawada?

Vijayawada (VGA) has a single terminal at Gannavaram, about 13–20 km from the city centre.

When is the cheapest time to fly?

The monsoon (July–September) and summer (April–June) tend to be cheapest. Fares peak around Sankranti in mid-January and the October–March festival and wedding season.

Can I get a refund if I cancel?

Under DGCA rules, airlines must refund statutory taxes and user-development fees even on non-refundable fares and process refunds within the prescribed window. The base-fare refund depends on your fare type.

What is the baggage allowance?

Typically 15 kg checked plus one 7 kg cabin bag on standard fares, though the cheapest fares may differ. Check your airline's rules — see the IndiGo baggage page, and confirm Air India's allowance separately.

When does web check-in open?

Usually 48 hours before departure, closing about 60 minutes prior for both IndiGo and Air India. Check in early to choose your seat.

Will monsoon or cyclones affect my flight?

They can. The southwest monsoon and occasional Bay of Bengal cyclonic systems may delay flights into coastal Andhra between June and November. Track the forecast and allow buffer for onward plans.

Can I travel with an infant?

Yes. Infants under two travel on a lap fare with valid age proof. Inform the airline at booking.

Can I fly with a pet?

Air India accepts pets in cabin and hold on many domestic flights subject to conditions; IndiGo generally does not carry pets in cabin. Confirm the current policy and book the pet well in advance.

Is it cheaper to book direct or via an OTA?

Compare both. The airline's own site is best for changes and shows true fare rules; an OTA may offer a small discount. FlightGPT lets you compare and book wherever is cheaper.

Should I take the non-stop or a connection?

Take the non-stop when timing and price suit — it's under two hours. If it's sold out or expensive, a one-stop via Hyderabad is the usual alternative and can be cheaper.
