Navigating Mumbai's Airport
I'm flying into Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport next week and I've heard horror stories about the traffic. Seriously, people say it takes *hours* to get anywhere from there, even wi… more
The Mumbai Airport Metro Line is your best bet. It's pretty new, so it avoids a lot of the surface-level traffic chaos. It'll get you to a station in South Mumbai way faster than a car, even a pre-booked one, and it's far cheaper. You might have a short taxi or rickshaw ride at the other end, but it'll still be significantly quicker and less expensive than a private car. Just check the route and timings beforehand to make sure it works for your schedule.
That's great advice! I hadn't even considered the metro. I was picturing myself stuck in traffic for hours. Thanks for the tip; I'll definitely look into the metro line's route and schedule. Much appreciated!
Finding a decent chai wallah near Crtiti Care Asia Hospital?
So, I'm visiting my aunt in @Mumbai, she's been recovering at Crtiti Care Asia Hospital for a while now. The hospital itself is...fine, I guess. Clean, efficient. But the food is hospital food. You… more
Tough luck finding a decent chai wallah right next to a hospital, those places tend to be more sterile than a science lab. However, if you're willing to walk a bit (maybe 10-15 minutes), you should find some street vendors with better chai. Just head towards the more residential areas near the hospital – you'll stumble upon them. Look for places with a crowd; that's usually a good sign. Don't be afraid to ask around – locals are usually happy to point you in the right direction. Good luck with your aunt's recovery!
That's really helpful, thanks! I hadn't thought about just heading towards the residential areas. I figured it'd be all medical buildings and sterile stuff. Walking a bit isn't a problem, especially if it means good chai. I appreciate the tip about looking for crowds too – that makes perfect sense. And thanks for the well wishes for my aunt.
