Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (BOM)

Mumbai Airport operates two terminals located 5-6 km apart: Terminal 1 for domestic flights and Terminal 2 - a massive four-level X-shaped facility handling both international and domestic operations. Terminal 2's peacock-inspired design features Level 4 for international departures with 78 gates total, Level 3 for domestic departures with gates B and F, Level 2 for arrivals with 14 baggage carousels, and Level 1 for ground transport. Free 24/7 inter-terminal shuttle buses run every 10 minutes (pickup at T1 Arrival exit near Gate 2, T2 Level 1 at P4), taking 25-30 minutes including traffic, requiring 3-4 hour minimum connection time between terminals. Terminal 2 showcases India's largest public art program 'Jaya He Museum' - a 3 km multi-storey Art Wall featuring over 7,000 artworks and artifacts from every Indian region displayed across four levels. Security at T2 entrance precedes the 192 check-in counters, with additional screening before 60 departure immigration counters (international) and separate domestic security on Level 3. The terminal utilizes 48 escalators, 75 elevators, and 42 travelators to move passengers efficiently through its X-shaped layout with Multiple Aircraft Ramp System (MARS) allowing flexible gate usage. Premium amenities include multiple GVK Lounges across both first/business sections, Aviserv and Travel Club lounges, plus airline-specific facilities (Air India, Emirates, Etihad). The terminal houses extensive duty-free shopping, local and international dining options, spa services, prayer rooms, and an in-terminal hotel. Arrivals feature 76 immigration counters for international passengers, with 'Baggage Acclaimed' art installations on carousels showcasing Indian textiles. The modern facility, inspired by the white peacock symbolizing flight and beauty, connects India's financial capital with comprehensive domestic and international networks.
