About Delhi and Mumbai
A 1,150 km sector between Delhi (DEL) and Mumbai (BOM) — connecting India's national capital with India's financial capital. Daily demand is strongest on weekdays for corporate and family travel; weekends see leisure and event-driven movement.
Delhi
Delhi anchors national governance, corporate headquarters, universities, hospitals, and a huge startup ecosystem, so departures from Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL) remain heavy all day. Travellers on this corridor include executives, consultants, students, families, and medical passengers who often need immediate movement with minimal planning time. Mumbai is the single heaviest thing Delhi flies to, and the winter fog window in North India is the one predictable disruption worth planning around: December and January mornings out of DEL can slip by an hour or more, so an early departure with a hard meeting at the other end deserves a buffer. Because there are dozens of DEL–BOM flights a day, the practical move when a departure goes wrong is to rebook forward on the same corridor rather than wait for one carrier to sort it out.
Mumbai
Mumbai draws steady year-round travel, which keeps arrivals into Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) busy across weekdays and weekends. This route serves bankers, founders, production teams, legal professionals, and families attending urgent commitments, so timing is often as important as price. Two details matter more here than on most routes. First, BOM runs domestic flights out of both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, and the two are a separate drive apart — check which one is printed on your ticket before you book a cab. Second, Mumbai’s road traffic means the ground leg from the terminal to a south-Mumbai address can eat a serious share of the time the 2h 10m flight saved you, so when you land often matters more than what you paid. Compare the DEL–BOM options by when they land, then by price.
Seasonal fare pattern across Indian domestic routes
Read this as India-wide context, not as a Delhi–Mumbai price history. We do not publish month-by-month DEL–BOM averages, so the bars below describe when domestic flying gets expensive in general — the live search at the top of this page is the only current Delhi to Mumbai fare.
India-wide seasonality bars
Indicative demand levels for domestic air travel in India, month by month. These are not DEL–BOM figures: what you actually pay on this sector depends on urgency, airline inventory, the departure slot you choose, and how close to travel you book.
On Delhi–Mumbai the day of the week you fly moves the fare far more than the month does — the day-by-day table further down is route-specific, this chart is not.

Delhi to Mumbai Flight Guide
Route at a glance. 1,150 km, about 2h 10m in the air, and roughly 57 non-stop departures a day — DEL–BOM is India’s busiest domestic corridor and behaves less like a route than like a shuttle. IndiGo runs around 32 of those flights, Air India about 14, Akasa Air about 8 and SpiceJet about 3, which averages out to a departure every twenty minutes or so across the day. Fares open from ₹5,544.
What that density buys you. On thin routes a missed or cancelled flight can cost you a day; between Delhi and Mumbai the next option is usually the same afternoon. The trade-off is that the corridor is priced for people who have to be in a meeting: this is a business sector first, and Friday and Sunday evenings — when corporate travel and weekend traffic land on the same departures — are consistently the most expensive to fly. Booking inside 72 hours on this sector almost never gets cheaper; what it gets you is the lowest seat still unsold, which is what our live search is scanning for.
Day of the week beats month. The Delhi–Mumbai figures in the table above put Tuesday and Wednesday near ₹7,000 while Friday runs about ₹10,500 — roughly 50% more for the same 2h 10m. Moving a flexible trip off Friday evening or Sunday is the single largest saving available on this route. One practical note for arrival day: Delhi spreads domestic departures across more than one terminal and Mumbai splits domestic flights between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2, so check the terminal printed on your ticket rather than assuming.

Tushar's note on Delhi to Mumbai
I founded Tatkal Flights specifically for travellers booking inside the 48-hour window before departure, and Delhi to Mumbai is one of the routes where that window matters most. On most Indian routes the cheapest fare buckets sell out first, so the closer you get to departure the higher the price usually climbs — last-minute is rarely cheaper. What we do instead is compare live fares across every airline the moment you search — including unpublished and network fares a single portal may not show — and get you the lowest seat still available, with a confirmed airline PNR in minutes. Booking inside 24–72 hours, the real win isn't a magic low price; it's a confirmed seat on the earliest workable flight without overpaying.
Two practical notes from watching this route closely: (1) Friday-evening departures on Delhi to Mumbai tend to price noticeably higher than the Tuesday-morning departure on the same week, so if your travel date is flexible by a day or two the savings are real. (2) The "non-refundable" tag on the cheapest fare bucket has a specific definition under DGCA rules — if the airline cancels or reschedules by more than 2 hours, you're owed a full refund regardless of bucket. I keep the DGCA refund-rights guide updated each quarter for that reason.
