Star Air's return leg from Mundra
Star Air is the only airline flying Mundra to Mumbai. It opened the route on 23 Jun, 2026, the day Mundra Airport began scheduled passenger service, and launch reports described five flights a week. In booking listings, the return to Mumbai has left Mundra in the early afternoon, at around 14:10, with a flying time of about 1 hour 5 to 1 hour 15 minutes. Star Air flies Embraer regional jets rather than turboprops, so the trip is quick and comfortable. As a young route, its days and timings may change, particularly at the switch to the winter schedule at the end of October. Search on FlightGPT for your date to see the current departure.
Getting to Mundra Airport from the port and SEZ
Mundra Airport is a short drive from the town and the port area, which makes it far more convenient for port staff than the 60 km run to Bhuj. Because scheduled flights only began in 2026, the terminal is small and facilities are limited:
- Ask your company transport desk or hotel to drop you; taxis may not wait outside.
- Arrive at least 75 minutes before departure — counters on new routes can close early.
- Eat in town; do not count on a café inside.
- Carry ID matching your ticket name exactly.
Travellers from Mandvi, about 50 km away, or Gandhidham, roughly 60 km, should allow for truck traffic on the port roads.
A port town's link to Mumbai's shipping offices
Most people on this flight are heading to work. Mumbai is where many of India's shipping lines, freight forwarders, insurers and commodity traders have their head offices, while Mundra handles a large share of India's container and bulk cargo. Engineers on rotation from the power plants and SEZ units fly home to Mumbai on weekends; managers fly in for board meetings and client reviews. Kutchi families living in Mumbai also use the route to return after visiting relatives in Mundra, Mandvi and the coastal villages. The early-afternoon departure means you can finish a morning's work at the port and still reach a Mumbai office before the end of the day.
Landing in Mumbai mid-afternoon
The Mundra flight lands at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in the afternoon; check whether your Star Air booking shows Terminal 1 or Terminal 2. A mid-afternoon arrival usually beats the evening peak, but traffic builds quickly after 4:30pm. From the airport:
- The Aqua Line metro runs south to BKC, Worli and Cuffe Parade — useful for Ballard Estate and Nariman Point shipping offices.
- App cabs and prepaid taxis reach Andheri and Bandra in 20–40 minutes.
- Navi Mumbai's JNPA port area can take 90 minutes or more by road.
For a meeting in Fort or Ballard Estate, the metro is often quicker than a cab.
Connecting from Mundra through Mumbai
Some travellers use the Mundra flight to reach Mumbai for a domestic or international connection. Star Air tickets are generally sold separately from other airlines, so your bags will not be checked through, and a delay on the Mundra leg is not the other airline's concern. Allow at least three hours for a domestic connection on a separate ticket and four or more for an international one, since you must collect bags, possibly change terminals, and check in again. Crew changes and seafarers joining ships often fly this way; for them, an overnight stay near the airport before an international flight is the safer plan.
Baggage on Star Air's Embraer jets
Star Air's economy fares have typically included around 15 kg of checked baggage plus a 7 kg cabin bag, with higher limits on its business-class seats — confirm the allowance on your ticket, as it depends on the fare type. Embraer overhead bins are smaller than those on an A320, so a large trolley case may be checked at the aircraft door. Port and plant staff should check restricted-items rules before carrying tools, safety boots with steel caps in the cabin, or sample materials. Kutchi snacks, dry fruit and pickles from Mundra and Mandvi are popular to take home; pack oily or liquid items in checked baggage.
No Star Air flight today? Back-up routes to Mumbai
On the two days a week without a Mundra flight, or if the flight is full, the usual alternatives are:
- Bhuj Airport, about 60 km away, with daily Air India and Alliance Air non-stops to Mumbai.
- Ahmedabad, well over 300 km by road, with dozens of daily Mumbai flights.
- Overnight trains from Gandhidham to Mumbai.
Kandla airport near Gandhidham is no longer a Mumbai option, because SpiceJet withdrew its Kandla–Mumbai flight in mid-2026. For regular commuters, keeping a flexible ticket on the Bhuj route as a back-up can save a lost day.
Before you search for Mundra to Mumbai
Check which days Star Air is flying in your travel week, and confirm the departure time again the evening before, since new routes change more often than established ones. Corporate travellers should make sure their name on the ticket matches their ID; smaller airports have little flexibility at check-in. Keep your mobile number correct on the booking for SMS updates. Weather on the Kutch coast is usually stable, but during cyclone warnings in May–June or October–November check the flight status before driving to the airport. For the outbound trip, see our Mumbai to Mundra flight guide. Compare fares on FlightGPT, then book with Star Air or a travel partner.
