I have 5 hours to kill at Mumbai Domestic Terminal at night. Reading through various forums and threads India Miker's are very innovative and helpful therefore, appealing to you all I would like to know what would you do to pass the time?

If 5 hours is the gap between your landing time and departure time, then it is roughly like this :

Intl to Natl

1 hour - get out of flight, clear immigration, customs

1 hour - transit from domestic to international or vice versa

1 hour - check-in / security for departing flight....

just about two hours - pick your choice - walk, listen to music, read, sleep, eat, .....

It is not difficult.

Natl to Intl

You will hardly have an hour to kill........

Thanks for this Ribhu.

However, I want to know what would you do in the 2 hours which are spare.

Read a book.....

Surf the net..... Do they have WIFI at the terminal?

Listen to music........

Chat........

Try and get into the airport lounge.....

Sleep..........

Play games on the phone........

Talking for myself I have a habit of using the waiting time in airports for walking....this is slightly tricky...u leave ur luggage in the middle and keep walking 100 m either side....to me this would take care of atleast 30 mins..

the remaining would be either in listening to music, reading, or sleeping depending on time of day and state of body.

The Kingfisher lounge can be a little slack at times in terms of checking business class credentials, which means a lucky economy class passenger can pass a few hours enjoying some food, a comfy chair and the complimentary wi-fi.

Or so I hear.

If you've never been to Mumbai before, take an hour rickshaw ride around and see a bit of the city.
