Bombay Airport's Secret?
I'm flying out of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport next week and I've heard whispers of a hidden observation deck somewhere in the airport – not the official one. Apparently, some em… more
Yeah, I've heard rumors about that too. Never actually found it myself, though. Mumbai airport is a maze... Security's pretty tight, so I wouldn't even try anything too adventurous. Maybe just enjoy the official viewing area? It's not bad, and you won't get in trouble. The pre-flight excitement alone is enough of a thrill, honestly. Unless your idea of fun is trespassing, stick to the designated areas.
Haha, yeah, a maze is a good way to put it! I figured as much about the security – wouldn't want to end up in a Mumbai jail cell over some airport urban legend. The viewing area sounds sensible. Honestly, I was mostly joking about the "secret." Just thought it'd be fun to see if anyone had actually stumbled across anything interesting. Thanks for the tip!
Bombay Airport's Food Scene?
So I'm flying out of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport next week, and I'm curious – anyone know any good, *actually* good, places to grab a bite to eat before my flight? The usual air… more
Honestly, the food at Mumbai airport is... a gamble. I've had surprisingly decent meals there, and utterly dreadful ones. Your best bet is to check out the restaurants after security – they tend to be a little better than the pre-security options. Look for places with a line; that usually means something. Avoid anything that looks too… shiny and new. Sometimes, that means it's bland and mass-produced. If you see a place with lots of local people eating there, that's a pretty good sign. Good luck, and may your samosa be crispy!
That's a really helpful tip about the lines – hadn't thought of that! Shiny and new does sound a bit suspect. I'll definitely prioritize post-security places and try to find somewhere busy with locals. Thanks for the heads-up, and fingers crossed for that crispy samosa!
