Amidst India-Pakistan tensions, to ensure passenger safety and streamline airport operation, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) in Mumbai has issued a comprehensive travel advisory. 


Dos for passengers

Arrive early at the airport:
Passengers are strongly advised to reach the airport at least 3 hours prior to domestic departures and 4 hours before international flights. This buffer time helps accommodate increased security measures and higher passenger traffic.

Carry valid ID documents:
Ensure you bring a government-issued photo identification, such as a passport or Aadhaar card, for security and identity verification at multiple checkpoints.

Comply with security procedures:
Be prepared for rigorous security screenings and respond to all instructions from airport and airline staff with courtesy and promptness.

Use only official information sources:
Always depend on verified channels like the airline’s website or mobile app for updates. Do not share or act on unverified news or online rumors.

Stay updated on flight status:
Regularly check for changes in flight schedules, gate assignments, or other operational updates through official platforms to avoid last-minute surprises.

Do not share unverified information:
Avoid forwarding or acting upon unconfirmed news or social media rumors, as these can create confusion and unnecessary panic.

Avoid unnecessary travel:
If your trip is non-essential, consider delaying your travel to help ease airport congestion and support smoother operations.

Do not carry restricted items:
Double-check your baggage contents to ensure compliance with airport security regulations and avoid carrying prohibited items.

Avoid relying on social media for updates:
Refrain from using social media platforms as your primary source of flight information. Always cross-verify details with official airline or airport communications.
