Mumbai Airport Madness
So, I'm flying out of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport next week, and I've heard horror stories about the security lines. Seriously, three hours waiting? My flight's at 7 AM – what… more
Four AM is overkill, unless you're flying a tiny puddle-jumper out of a forgotten terminal. Three hours is definitely a worst-case scenario – more like a monsoon-level traffic jam scenario. For a 7 AM flight, aim for 5:00 AM. That gives you a buffer, even if you hit a longer line. Download the airport app, it sometimes has real-time queue info, although its accuracy is... debatable. Also, pack smart: liquids in easily accessible bags, no loose change jangling around, that kinda stuff to speed things up.
Yeah, good points. I was picturing the absolute worst-case, peak season, everything goes wrong scenario. Five AM sounds much more reasonable. Didn't even think about the app, that's helpful. And the packing tip – totally agree, I’m always fumbling with my stuff. Thanks for the advice!
Chembur's Hidden Lanes?
I'm visiting Chembur next month and I've heard whispers of incredible street food tucked away in its less-trafficked lanes. My cousin, who lives there, just shrugs and says "go explore, it's Chembur.… more
Chembur's a maze, alright. Your cousin's right, exploring is half the fun. But to give you a little nudge...try heading towards the lanes near the Bharat Nagar area. Lots of tiny eateries there, serving up some seriously good chaat and vada pav. Don't be afraid to just wander – the best finds are usually the ones you stumble upon accidentally. Look for places packed with locals; that's your best bet for authenticity. And definitely check out the smaller, less flashy places. You won't regret it. Happy eating!
