The first flight from Bengaluru will land at 8.10am and leave for Mumbai at 8.45am.

A decision by IndiGo to station the flight (6e678) at MIA overnight will facilitate the operation of flight (6e256) which will depart to the state capital in the winter schedule at 6.40am.

These scheduled flights will give passengers the opportunity to travel to both domestic and international destinations at a timing of their choice. At present, MIA has domestic connectivity to Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Delhi (direct), Chennai, Pune, and Kolkata via Bengaluru (all IndiGo); Mumbai (GoAir and Air India) and SpiceJet (Dubai and Bengaluru) respectively.

Air India Express, which hitherto operated one flight to Mumbai, will exclusively cater to international destinations - Dubai, Dammam, Muscat, Kuwait, Doha, Bahrain, and Abu Dhabi. Additionally, IndiGo and SpiceJet have indicated they will operate to Doha and Sharjah respectively in the winter schedule. However, bookings for these new international sectors are yet to open.
