Is there a direct flight from Mumbai to Srinagar?

Sometimes. Nonstops appear in the summer schedule and are dropped outside it, so check both the direct and a Delhi connection for your dates. Nonstop is about two hours forty-five; through Delhi, budget five to six hours including the layover.

Is Kashmir worth visiting during the Mumbai monsoon?

It's one of our favourite times to send people. The valley sits behind the mountains and gets a fraction of the rain the Konkan coast does — July is green and warm with the occasional shower, and August and September are steadier still. Hotels are cheaper and Gulmarg is empty.

What should a couple budget from Mumbai?

For a five-night premium itinerary, roughly ₹30,000 per person for the land package and ₹9,000 to ₹20,000 per person return for the flight. Call it ₹85,000 to ₹1,00,000 for two, before shopping and the Gondola tickets.

How many days should we take?

Six days, five nights. Fewer than that and the travel eats the holiday. If you have a week, spend the extra day in Pahalgam rather than adding a fourth valley.

Mumbai to Srinagar

There is a nonstop. Take an early one.

Mumbai's link to Srinagar is less dependable than Delhi's. In a good summer schedule there are nonstops and the flight is under three hours. Outside that window everything routes through Delhi and the day becomes five to six hours once the layover is counted.

If you are connecting, take the first bank of flights out of Mumbai. The last arrival into Srinagar is early by most airports' standards, so a misconnection in Delhi doesn't cost you a few hours — it costs you the night, and we would rather move your first hotel night than have you land at a closed airport.

Srinagar runs two security checks on departure and they take longer than Mumbai's, which catches people out on the way home.

When to go from Mumbai

Your calendar, not the valley’s.

Five nights minimum. With a connection at one end or both you lose the better part of two days to travel, and a four-night trip from Mumbai turns into two real days in the valley.

June to September, while Mumbai drowns

The valley is not in the monsoon's path the way the west coast is. July brings some rain and the whole place is at its greenest; it is the one stretch of the year when you can leave a Mumbai downpour and land somewhere dry. Airfares are soft in August and September too.

Honeymoon season

Most of what we run for Mumbai couples falls either side of the wedding months — late April into May, and November into early December. Both give you clear weather and neither is as crowded as the June peak.

The tulips, if the dates are flexible

Asia's largest tulip garden opens for roughly three weeks from late March, and the dates move every year with the winter. Talk to us before you book flights around it rather than after.
