Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport {{airport codes|BOM|VABB}} is the international airport serving Mumbai, the capital of the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is the second-busiest airport in India in terms of total and international passenger traffic after Delhi, the 14th-busiest airport in Asia and the 31st-busiest airport in the world by passenger traffic in 2024.{{Cite book|url=https://www.panynj.gov/content/dam/airports/statistics/statistics-general-info/annual-atr/ATR2019.pdf|title=2019 Annual Airport Traffic Report|publisher=Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.|year=2020|location=United States}}

The airport is operated by Mumbai International Airport Limited (MIAL), a joint venture between Adani Enterprises, a subsidiary of the Adani Group and Airports Authority of India.{{Cite news |date=13 July 2021 |title=Adani Group takes over Mumbai airport |work=The Times of India |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/adani-group-takes-over-mumbai-airport/articleshow/84380085.cms |access-date=14 October 2023 |issn=0971-8257}}

The airport is named after Shivaji (1630–1680), 17th-century Chhatrapati of the Maratha Empire. It was renamed in 1999 from the previous "Sahar Airport" to "Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport" (the title "Maharaj" was inserted on 30 August 2018{{cite web|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/india/mumbai-airport-chhatrapati-shivaji-maharaj-international-airport-5333252/|title=Mumbai airport renamed as Chhatrapati Shivaji 'Maharaj' International Airport|work=The Indian Express|access-date=12 January 2019|date=30 August 2018}}). It is situated across the suburbs of Santacruz and Sahar Village in Vile Parle East.

History

RAF Santa Cruz was constructed in the 1930s.{{cite web|url=https://cultural.maharashtra.gov.in/english/gazetteer/greater_bombay/communication.html |title=Maharashtra State Gazetteers – Greater Bombay District |publisher=Cultural.maharashtra.gov.in |access-date=28 December 2017}} It was a bigger airfield than nearby Juhu Aerodrome and was home to several RAF squadrons during World War II from 1942 to 1947.{{cite web|url=http://www.rafweb.org/Stations/Stations-S.htm |title=RAF RAF Santa Cruz |publisher= rafweb.org |date=9 January 2011|access-date=17 September 2011}} The Airport covered an area of about {{convert|1500|acre}} and initially had three runways.{{cite web|url=http://cultural.maharashtra.gov.in/english/gazetteer/greater_bombay/communication.html |title=Transport by Air |publisher= Maharashtra State Gazetteers |year= 1987 |access-date=5 March 2012}} The apron existed on the south side of runway 09/27, and the area, referred to today as the "Old Airport", houses, among others, maintenance hangars of Air India, Air Works India, Indamer Aviation Pvt Ltd, and MIAL's General Aviation Terminal.

By 1946, when the RAF began the process of handing over the airfield to the Director General of Civil Aviation for Civil operations,{{cite web |url=https://api.parliament.uk/historic-hansard/written-answers/1946/oct/30/airfield-santa-cruz |title=Airfield, Santa Cruz |work=Parliamentary Debates (Hansard) |date=30 October 1946 |access-date=17 September 2011 |archive-date=27 September 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200927215630/http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/written_answers/1946/oct/30/airfield-santa-cruz |url-status=live }} two old abandoned hangars of the Royal Air Force had been converted into a terminal for passenger traffic. One hangar was used as a domestic terminal and the other for international traffic. It had counters for customs and immigration checks on either side and a lounge in the center. Air India handled its passengers in its own terminal adjoining the two hangars. In its first year, it handled six civilian services a day.

Traffic at the airport increased after Karachi was partitioned to Pakistan and as many as 40 daily domestic and foreign services were operated by 1949, prompting the Indian Government to develop the airport, equipping the airport with a night landing system comprising a Radio range and a modernised flare path lighting system.{{cite web|url=http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1949/1949%20-%200920.html |title=Santacruz to be developed|work=FlightGlobal |date=19 May 1949|access-date=17 September 2011}} Construction of a new passenger terminal and apron began in 1950 and was commissioned in 1958. Named after the neighbourhood in which it stood and initially under the aegis of the Public Works Department, the new airport was subsequently run by the Ministry of Civil Aviation.

With the dawning of the jumbo jet era in the 1970s, Santacruz, despite several extensions, began suffering from insufficient operational capacity.

The Santacruz terminal was designed to accommodate 600 passengers at any given time, but by the late 1970s, it was handling 1,200. In 1979–80, 5 million domestic and international passengers flew into and out of Santa Cruz compared with 3 million at Delhi's Palam Airport. The airlines were constantly expanding their services but there was no corresponding increase in space at the terminal, making it the most congested airport in the country. In one of its issues, Time magazine, referring to the chaos, called the terminal building a "black hole".{{cite news|title= Travellers can breathe freely with brand new and improved terminal at Sahar in Bombay | url= https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/tourism/story/19801231-travellers-can-breathe-freely-with-brand-new-and-improved-terminal-at-sahar-in-bombay-773676-2013-11-29#ssologin=1#source=magazine | newspaper=India Today|date= 31 December 1980|access-date= 14 August 2019}}

A major fire gutted the International section of the terminal building on 21 September 1979, killing three passengers and shutting down the airport. A temporary departure extension or "Gulf Terminal" was made functional in October of that year until the terminal was repaired.{{cite news|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/fire-guts-Bombay-Santa-Cruz-airport-family-of-three-dies/1/427690.html |title=Bombay airport: A costly inferno |date=15 October 1979|access-date=20 January 2016}}

The Tata committee, set up in 1967 to examine the issues concerning the airport, had recommended the construction of a new international terminal to meet the requirements of traffic in the seventies. The Santa Cruz terminal was to be used for domestic traffic alone. The International Airport Authority of India (IAAI), which was set up in 1972, started planning the construction of a new terminal building for handling international passenger traffic, to be completed by 1981. Accordingly, construction of the new international terminal at Sahar to the northeast of Santacruz in Vile Parle was taken up at an estimated cost of {{INR}} 110 million.

Construction of the new international terminal at Sahar began in November 1977, and the first phase took three years to build. Sahar Terminal 2A, the first phase of the two-part terminal, was opened on 5 December 1980.

AAI had been considering the modernisation of Bombay Airport in 1996 although the AAI board approved a modernisation proposal only in 2003. By then, Bombay and Delhi Airports were handling 38% of the country's aircraft movement and generating one-third of all revenues earned by AAI. At that time, the Bombay airport handled 13.3 million passengers, 60% of which were domestic travellers. The airport faced severe congestion for both aircraft and passengers as it was handling twice as many aircraft movements per day than it was originally designed for. The bidding process for its modernisation eventually began in May 2004 with the decision by the Empowered Group of Ministers (EGoM) was announced in January 2006.{{cite web |url=http://115.111.81.83:8080/xmlui/bitstream/handle/123456789/233/2007-05-01_RekhaJain.pdf |title=Airport Privatization in India: Lessons from the Bidding Process in Delhi and Mumbai |author1=Rekha Jain |author2=G.

Passenger and air traffic

Its passenger traffic was about 49.8 million in year 2018. It is also the second-busiest airport in terms of cargo traffic. In March 2017, the airport surpassed London's Gatwick Airport as the world's busiest to operate a single runway at a time. This was later surpassed again by Gatwick Airport at the end of 2019 due to passenger numbers falling at Mumbai.{{cite news |author=Manju, V. |date=13 May 2017 |title=Now, Mumbai world's busiest airport with only one runway |newspaper=The Times of India |agency=TNN |location=Mumbai |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/now-mumbai-worlds-busiest-airport-with-only-one-runway/articleshow/58652790.cms |access-date=13 May 2017}}

It handled a record of 1,007 aircraft movements on 9 December 2018, higher than its earlier record of 1,003 flight movements in a day in June 2018. It handled a record of 51 movements in one hour on 16 September 2014.{{cite news |date=20 September 2014 |title=Mumbai ATC handles about 50 flights an hour |work=The Times of India |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Mumbai-ATC-handles-a-record-51-flights-an-hour/articleshow/43022431.cms |access-date=29 September 2014}} In financial year 2020, the airport handled 45.87 million passengers, only second to IGI's 67.3 million in India.{{cite web |title=Leading airports across India in financial year 2020, by number of passengers handled(in millions) |url=https://www.statista.com/statistics/589115/indian-airports-passenger-traffic/ |access-date=27 January 2021 |website=statista}} In financial year 2024–25, the airport handled the highest ever passengers in its history of over 55.1 million passengers, surpassing its maximum capacity of 50 million passengers per year, and second only to IGI's 79.2 million in India.

Ownership

A consortium of GVK Industries, Airports Company South Africa, and Bidvest,{{cite web |title=Bidvest.co.za |url=http://www.bidvest.co.za/ |access-date=24 August 2010 |publisher=Bidvest.co.za}} won the bid to run the Mumbai Airport. To accomplish this task, Mumbai International Airport Private Limited (MIAL), a joint venture between the consortium (74%) and the Airports Authority of India (26%) was formed.{{cite web|url=http://www.gvk.com/ourbusiness/airports/csiamumbai.aspx |title=GVK website, CSIA |publisher=gvk.com |access-date=19 January 2012}} Since then, MIAL has made several improvements in the aesthetics, design and passenger conveniences at CSMIA including the refurbishment of domestic terminals 1A & 1B, international terminals 2B & 2C, and the opening of a brand new domestic terminal 1C and new Terminal T2. MIAL also undertook airside improvement projects such as the commissioning of new taxiways, and aprons and the reconstruction of the two runways.{{cite web |date=24 June 2012 |title=Mumbai International Airport Limited – MIAL |url=http://www.apaoindia.com/?page_id=164 |access-date=4 May 2016 |publisher=Association of Private Airport Operators}} In February 2008, MIAL entered into an agreement with Air Transport IT specialist SITA that led to CSIA becoming the first airport in India to Implement Common-use self-service Kiosks and CUTE (Common Use Terminal Equipment) check-in systems.{{cite web|url=http://csia.in/Sita-Mial.asp |title=CSIA.in |publisher=CSIA.in |date=8 February 2008 |access-date=24 August 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090622054352/http://www.csia.in/Sita-Mial.asp |archive-date=22 June 2009 }}

The increased air-side efficiencies resulted in CSMIA overtaking Gatwick Airport in March 2017 to become the world's busiest airport with only one operational runway at a time.

Runway notes

Once the longest commercial runway in India, Runway 09/27 is the airport's main runway. 13 taxiways, including four rapid exit taxiways, connect it to a full-length parallel taxiway to its north. It intersects the secondary runway south of the terminal buildings. The reconstruction of the runway started in September 2010 and was completed in May 2011. The runway width was increased from {{convert|45|m|ft}} to {{convert|60|m|ft}} with a runway shoulder width of 7.5 m added on each side. The ILS on 27 starts at {{convert|2900|ft|m|abbr=on}} and is {{convert|9.1|nmi|km}} long with a glide slope path of 3°.{{cite web |url=http://www.aai.aero/misc/AIPS_2013_04.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140318185102/http://www.aai.aero/misc/AIPS_2013_04.pdf |url-status=dead |archive-date=18 March 2014 |title=AIRAC AIP Supplement |publisher=Airports Authority of India |access-date=19 March 2013 }}

Runway 14/32 has ten taxiways including three rapid exit taxiways that connect to a parallel taxiway running along its eastern flank. It runs between Terminals 1 and 2 and was reconstructed in 2010. The runway shoulders were widened from {{convert|7.5|to|15|m|ft}}. The associated taxiways of the secondary runway were upgraded in 2019. A new rapid exit taxiway and the conversion of taxiways to Code-F effectively increased the capacity of the runway. In 2020, the secondary runway set a record of 47 movements per hour during peak hour traffic as compared to 36 movements per hour.

  • Trombay Hill, lies {{convert|4.5|nmi|km|abbr=on}} away from the 32 end, an approach that was temporarily made a No-Fly zone because the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) nuclear complex at Trombay (Anushakti Nagar) lies within its flight path.{{cite news |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Mumbai-airport-to-get-satellite-based-navigation-system/articleshow/16344130.cms |title=Mumbai airport to get satellite-based navigation system |first=Chinmayi |last=Shalya |date=11 September 2012 |access-date=21 March 2015 |location=Mumbai |work=The Times of India}}{{cite news |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Ban-flight-of-civilian-planes-over-BARC-Experts/articleshow/3789730.cms |title=Ban flight of civilian planes over BARC: Experts |first=Chinmayi |last=Shalya |date=4 December 2008 |access-date=21 March 2015 |location=Mumbai |work=The Times of India}}
  • At 2,869 meters (9,413 feet), runway 14/32 is quite shorter than 09/27, and is not effective in critical situations such as emergency landings or during wet conditions, which has led to aircraft skidding on landing. The shorter length of the runway affects widebody planes in such scenarios.

MIAL was considering constructing a second parallel runway as part of its master plan. However, the construction of this runway would necessitate a large-scale relocation of either Air India's hangars and maintenance facilities or the airport's flight kitchens and the Sahar police station, among others, depending on its alignment. The parallel runway remains an active part of the expansion plan but in the meantime the cross runway is being upgraded as much as possible.{{cite web|url=http://www.airport-technology.com/projects/chhatrapati/ |title=Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport, Mumbai, Maharashtra |publisher=Airport Technology |access-date=27 July 2010}}

Terminals

The airport has two terminals for scheduled commercial passenger services: Terminal 1 at Santacruz for domestic flights and Terminal 2 at Sahar for both international and domestic flights. While both terminals use the same airside facilities, they are physically separated on the city side, requiring a 15–20-minute (landside) drive between them. A dedicated General Aviation Terminal caters to passengers using private and non-scheduled flight operations.

==Terminal 1==

File:Mumbai airport domestic departure terminal 1C (8).JPG

Terminal 1, locally known as Santacruz Airport, is used for domestic flights primarily operated by low-cost carriers. This was the original Santacruz building that was Mumbai's first passenger terminal which was once integrated, however was renamed Terminal 1 after the opening of the Sahar building for international operations and became a domestic operations terminal. It was refurbished several times over the decades, the most recent being during the 2000s. It was further divided into Terminal 1A, Terminal 1B, and Terminal 1C after their permanent closure during the course of the late 1990s and early 2000s. It was used by SpiceJet, Go First, and IndiGo, but after Jet Airways dissolved on 17 April 2019, select flights from all the Terminal 1 airlines moved into the newer Terminal 2 building.{{cite web|url=http://www.csia.in/flightinformation/domestic-airlines.aspx|title=Domestic Airlines|work=CSIA website|access-date=13 September 2015|archive-date=10 September 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150910152707/http://www.csia.in/flightinformation/domestic-airlines.aspx|url-status=dead}} The terminal has 11 passenger boarding bridges.

Larsen & Toubro (L&T) was awarded the contract to construct the new Terminal 2, in order to differentiate it from the Old Terminal 2 Building. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM) was the architectural designer of the project. SOM also provided the schematic design of structure and MEP and the detailed structural design of the roof. Detailed design of the foundations and the rest of the structure and civil works, the MEP, IT, and airport systems, including the full construction documentation of the project was carried out by L&T's in-house design team, EDRC (Engineering Design and Research Center). The terminal covers a land area of {{Convert|210000|m2}} and has replaced the Previous International Terminal (which has already been demolished). The entire project was estimated to cost {{INRConvert|98|b}} and employ over 12,000 workers.{{cite web|url=http://www.csia.in/pressrelease/18b74602d8024d4bb45aacc40d0f7894.pdf|title=CSIA press release|publisher=CSIA|access-date=19 December 2012|archive-date=26 June 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130626030353/http://www.csia.in/pressrelease/18b74602d8024d4bb45aacc40d0f7894.pdf|url-status=dead}}

The airport has free Wi-Fi connectivity provided by Tata Docomo across both Terminal 1 and 2. However, the service has been criticised for being ineffective and complicated access for international passengers, as the passengers need to get an OTP through an Indian phone number only, while the free service lasts for just 45 minutes, following which passengers have to buy data packs. The phone number requirement has been attributed to the requirements of Telecom Regulatory Authority of India for safety considerations.{{cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bengaluru/free-wi-fi-still-out-of-reach-for-many-international-flyers-at-indian-airports/articleshow/62989029.cms|title=Free Wi-Fi still out of reach for many international flyers|website=The Times of India | date=20 February 2018}} Following frequent criticism, Wi-Fi kiosks were installed for passengers who do not have a local phone number, which can scan boarding passes and passports and provide 3 hour service.{{cite web |title=High Speed Wifi Service |url=https://csmia.adaniairports.com/wi-fi-facility.aspx |website=csmia.adaniairports.com |access-date=10 December 2024}}

==Terminal 1 (divided into 1A, 1B, and 1C)==

When the Sahar terminal was opened in the 1980s, the terminal at Santacruz reverted to being a domestic terminal. The terminal consisted of three structures, Terminals 1A, 1B, and 1C.

  • Terminal 1A - It was opened in April 1992, and was used solely by Indian Airlines (now Air India). In 2005, Kingfisher Airlines also began operating from 1A, after it entered into an agreement to source all ground handling and terminal space from Indian Airlines.{{cite news|title= Kingfisher Airlines to take wings on May 9|url= http://www.dancewithshadows.com/business/kingfisher-airlines-first-flight.asp|work= DanceWithShadows.com|date= 8 May 2005|access-date= 1 January 2016|url-status= dead|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20101112172115/http://www.dancewithshadows.com/business/kingfisher-airlines-first-flight.asp|archive-date= 12 November 2010|df= dmy-all}} In June 2013, shortly after Kingfisher ceased operations, MIAL allocated the vacant space to GoAir.{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/industry-and-economy/logistics/goair-to-use-terminal-1a-in-mumbai-airport-from-july-1/article4856997.ece|title=GoAir to use Terminal 1A in Mumbai airport from July 1|work=Business Line|access-date=4 June 2015}} From 1 October 2015, Air India moved all of its Terminal 1A operations to the new Terminal 2. GoAir moved its departure operations to Terminal 1B on that same date, resulting in the closure of the Terminal 1A departures level. GoAir, however, continued to use Terminal 1A's arrivals level{{cite news|title= Air India to move to Mumbai airport T2 from Oct 1 |url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/companies/air-india-to-move-to-mumbai-airport-t2-from-oct-1-115091601094_1.html|work=Business Standard |date= 16 September 2015|access-date= 1 January 2016}} until 15 March 2016 when its arrivals were also shifted to Terminal 1B{{cite news|title= Terminal 1B in Mumbai to handle GoAir arrivals from March 15 |url=http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/airlines-/-aviation/terminal-1b-in-mumbai-to-handle-goair-arrivals-from-march-15/articleshow/51393745.cms|work=The Economic Times |date= 14 March 2016|access-date= 17 March 2016}} and Terminal 1A was shut.
  • Terminal 1B - It was opened in 1942, and This was the original Santacruz building that was Mumbai's first passenger terminal which was once integrated, however was renamed Terminal 1 after the opening of the Sahar building for international operations and became a domestic operations terminal.
  • Terminal 1C - It was built at a cost of {{INR}} 3 billion and opened in April 2010. Architectural design was provided by Hafeez Contractor. EDRC, the in-house design unit of the EPC contractor Larsen & Toubro (L&T) performed the Structural, MEP and IT/Airport systems design. The terminal had six passenger boarding bridges and allowed connectivity between Terminals 1A and 1B. It was spread over 297,194 sq ft across three levels and had a seating capacity of about 900 passengers. Level 1 housed the offices of MIAL and some airlines, Level 2 comprised the security-hold area for passengers after checking in at either Terminal 1A or 1B. Level 3 accommodated a food court.{{cite news|title= Mumbai airport unveils new domestic terminal |url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/economy-policy/mumbai-airport-unveils-new-domestic-terminal-110041800035_1.html |work=Business Standard |date= 18 April 2010|access-date= 17 February 2013}} The building served as a boarding-only facility for all airlines. Passengers entered this facility via Terminal 1B.

In January 2017, MIAL renamed the Terminal 1B as T1.

==Terminal 2 (divided into 2A, 2B, and 2C)==

File:Terminal 2B.jpg

Terminal 2 of the airport is located at Sahar Village, in Vile Parle East. Designed by Aéroports de Paris and opened in January 1981, Terminal 2 was built in three modular phases as Terminals 2A, 2B, and 2C. Each module had a capacity of 2.5 million annual passengers. This terminal had an area of {{convert|120000|m2|sqft|abbr=on}}.

The terminal structure was laid out in a space-saving vertical arrangement with separate levels for arrivals and departures. An overpass on the city-side took passengers to the upper-level departure forecourt.

The original terminal was a convex shaped single concourse building with 14 Code E contact stands. The greater T2 apron also provided a further 15 Code D/E and 6 Code C remote stands. This gave a total of 35 stands on the existing apron.

The departures section of 2A had 42 check-in counters, 18 more than in the international section at the Santacruz terminal. After completing customs and immigration formalities, the departing travellers were led down to a mezzanine floor where five elongated nodules connect the terminal with the aircraft via aerobridges.

  • Terminal 2A - This first phase of the terminal complex was completed at a cost of {{INRConvert|180|m}} and it served most international carriers. Its boarding gates 3 to 8 were the first aerobridges installed in the subcontinent. It was decommissioned and demolished in January 2009{{cite news|url=http://www.indianexpress.com/news/razing-of-terminal-2a-begins-at-airport/407500/ |title=Razing of terminal 2A begins at airport |work=The Indian Express|date= 7 January 2009|access-date=26 December 2011}} to make way for the new T2 structure.
  • Terminal 2B - It cost {{INRConvert|220|m}} and was completed in 1984. It served Air India and carriers handled by Air India between September 1986 and October 1999 and was decommissioned when Terminal 2C opened. It was extensively refurbished and made operational once again following the demolition of Terminal 2A.
  • Terminal 2C - Inaugurated in October 1999, it was originally and exclusively for Air India, Air India Express and those carriers whose ground operations were handled by Air India.

Terminals 2B and 2C were decommissioned in February 2014 when the new T2 took over operations. They were demolished later that year so that the remainder of the new T2 could be completed.{{cite news|title=Swanky terminal inaugurated at Mumbai international airport |url=http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/swanky-terminal-inaugurated-at-mumbai-international-airport/article5562635.ece |first=Lalatendu |last=Mishra |date=10 January 2014 |work=The Hindu |location=Mumbai |access-date=4 February 2015}}

The Air Cargo Complex, located west of the International Passenger Terminal 2, has been in operation since 1977.{{cite web|url=http://www.csia.in/airportdevelopment/information/Air_20Cargo_20Complex_201.pdf|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120531014220/http://www.csia.in/airportdevelopment/information/Air_20Cargo_20Complex_201.pdf|url-status=dead|title=MIAL Air Cargo Complex|archive-date=31 May 2012|access-date=10 December 2019}} The cargo apron is capable of handling five wide-bodied aircraft. In 2009–10, the airport handled 385,937 metric tonnes of International Cargo and 165,252 metric tonnes of Domestic Cargo.{{cite web|url=http://www.csia.in/airportdevelopment/information/Air_20Cargo_20Performances_201.pdf|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120531014244/http://www.csia.in/airportdevelopment/information/Air_20Cargo_20Performances_201.pdf|url-status=dead|title=MIAL Air Cargo Performances|archive-date=31 May 2012|access-date=10 December 2019}} Air India (AI) and Mumbai International Airport Pvt Ltd (MIAL) have been appointed as custodians of cargo by the Central Board of Excise and Customs at Mumbai. The Cargo Terminal has a Centre for Perishable Cargo (CPC) with an area of 1844 m2 for perishable and temperature-sensitive international export shipments, strong rooms of 115 m2 for storage of valuable cargo and storage areas for dangerous goods in both import and export warehouses, dedicated Unaccompanied Baggage handling and clearance areas and 9 coloured X-ray cargo screening machines for export cargo.{{cite web|url=http://www.csia.in/airportdevelopment/information/CargoFacilities.pdf|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120531014315/http://www.csia.in/airportdevelopment/information/CargoFacilities.pdf|url-status=dead|title=MIAL Cargo Facilities|archive-date=31 May 2012|access-date=10 December 2019}}

Apart from handling 65% of the international volumes at CSIA, MIAL also operates a Common User Domestic Cargo Facility. After taking over the redevelopment work of the airport in 2006, MIAL commissioned an offshore Common User Terminal (CUT) near the Marol pipeline as a temporary arrangement. In June 2016, MIAL opened a new domestic cargo CUT near the Western Express Highway in Vile Parle.

The CUT has been outsourced to Concor Air Ltd. on a Build-operate-transfer basis. The terminal has the capacity to handle 300,000 metric tonnes of cargo annually and is built on an area of 60,000 square feet. The Cargo Terminal is an "elevated terminal structure" where all arriving domestic cargo is managed from the basement level while departing cargo is handled at the upper level. Air India and Blue Dart handle their own domestic cargo operations at their own terminals.{{cite news|title= MIAL sees cargo volumes flying on e-comm business|url=http://www.dnaindia.com/money/report-mial-sees-cargo-volumes-flying-on-e-comm-business-2220666|work=Daily News & Analysis|date= 7 June 2016|access-date= 12 June 2016}}

However, CSIA placed conditions before MMRDA for the corridor;

  • The metro line should operate twenty-four hours a day in order to serve passengers of international flights scheduled at odd hours.
  • A provision be made for a check-in facility at all metro stations.

MIAL specified that the commercial rights of the three stations it constructs will fully rest with the authority, and that revenue earned from any commercial activity on the premises would go to MIAL. It would undertake the design and civil construction of the stations, costing {{INR}} 600 crore, on its own, and would pay the estimated cost of electromechanical equipment (around {{INR}} 177 crore) to MMRDA in three equal instalments over three years.

MIAL inserted a 'metro component' in the User Development Fee charged at Mumbai Airport from 2016 to February 2023 to raise Rs 518 crore for metro connectivity. The charges of Rs 20 and Rs 120 per domestic and international departure respectively were levied until the target sum was raised.{{cite web|url=https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/transportation/airlines-/-aviation/delhi-airport-to-get-indias-first-air-train-to-connect-terminal-1-with-t2-and-t3/articleshow/113623556.cms |title=Delhi airport to get India's first air train, will connect Terminal 1 with T2 and T3 | work=The Economic Times|date= 24 September 2024|access-date=27 September 2024}}

  • On 12 June 1975, Air France Flight 193, a Boeing 747-128 (N28888) operating the sector between Bombay (now Mumbai), and Tel Aviv to Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport was destroyed by fire on the ground at Bombay's Santa Cruz Airport, following an aborted takeoff. The aircraft's tire on its right-hand main undercarriage had failed while the flight deck crew was executing a 180 degree turn at the beginning of Santa Cruz Airport's runway 27. When the flight deck crew began its takeoff run, another tire failed. At that point the plane's wheels and braking assembly came into contact with the runway, starting a fire. The crew aborted takeoff. The ensuing delay in shutting down the engines, as well as the improper deployment of the airport's fire service, caused the fire to spread, leading to the plane's total destruction. There were no fatalities among the 394 occupants (18 crew and 376 passengers).{{cite web|url=http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19750612-0|title=ASN Aircraft accident Boeing 747-128 N28888 Mumbai (Bombay)|author=Harro Ranter|date=12 June 1975|work=aviation-safety.net|access-date=8 July 2015}}
