Route overview

Flying Mumbai to Dubai.

Mumbai to Dubai is 1,044 nautical miles (1,933 km), about 2h 47m in a light jet. One-way charter from ₹6.9L.

Most private flights on this route leave from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International (GA terminal) (BOM) and arrive at Al Maktoum International (DWC). As an international trip, you clear customs and immigration at the first airport of entry; we confirm passports, visas and permits when you book.

The right aircraft depends on passengers and bags. A turboprop takes about 4h 02m. A light jet takes about 2h 47m. A midsize jet takes about 2h 40m.

Prices are for the whole aircraft and exclude GST. Return trips on the same day cost less per leg than two one-way charters, because the aircraft does not reposition empty.

Before you fly

Mumbai to Dubai: permits, airports and entry.

  • At Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International, private and non-scheduled flights use the General Aviation Terminal at Kalina, approved for international operations in April 2011.
  • Parking is tight: most business jets, turboprops and charter aircraft parked at the main airport are being moved to Navi Mumbai International, and visiting private aircraft may drop passengers and park elsewhere.
  • Juhu Aerodrome is served mainly by small aircraft and helicopters; its runways are 1,143 m and 731 m long.
  • About 70% of Dubai's business aviation traffic now uses Al Maktoum International (DWC). Dubai International (DXB) is used mainly for charters and by owners with their own facilities.
  • ExecuJet's three-floor private terminal at DWC, opened in December 2024, has customs and immigration inside the building.
  • Private and charter flights into the UAE need a landing permit from the emirate's civil aviation authority, normally with at least four business days' notice. The operator files it; we build that into the booking.
  • For Dubai, the aircraft must carry its airworthiness certificate, registration, radio licence, worldwide insurance and, on a charter, the operator's air operator certificate.
  • Indian passport holders with a valid US visit visa, a US green card, or an EU visit or residence visa can get a 14-day conditional visa on arrival, extendable once by 14 days. Holders of only a UK residence visa are due to lose eligibility when new rules take effect; no date had been announced by July 2026.
  • Everyone else needs a UAE visa issued before departure. We check every passenger's passport and visa when you book.
