Time Zone: GMT +5.5.
Phone Number: Tel: + 91 (0)22 836 6700.
Terminal Transfer: The two terminals are five miles (3km) apart, and are connected by a free bus service.
Ground Transport: Pre-paid taxis are available outside Arrivals (journey time approx 60 min).
Car Rental: Car hire, with or without a driver, can be arranged in Arrivals, however
due to the erratic nature of Indian driving self-drive cars are not advised.
Airport Facilities: ATMs and bureaux de change are available in both terminals along with a number of bars, restaurants and shops. There are limited disabled facilities and travelers with special needs should advise their airline in advance. As with all Indian airports, travelers should be prepared for a certain amount of chaos; queues are long for immigration and the many security checks and endless uniformed staff stand around with no obvious purpose. The restaurants are best avoided and passengers are advised to take their own snacks.
Car Parking: Parking is available at both terminals.
Departure Tax: Rs. 200.
