How do I get to Pune from Mumbai Airport (International)?

So a train is a bad idea? I haven't seen it mentioned here. I thought any long trip was best on a train in India.

From the intl. airport in Mumbai to Pune? I never heard of anyone using the train. Most people that I know of who're traveling directly from Mumbai's international airport drive from the airport directly to Pune, either by someone's car or hiring a door-to-ddor pickup and drop service like Sandi's or KK travels. If you've a lot of luugage, though, then a shared vehicle like Sandi's or KK might be cramped. Also, since they wait for all the pre-booked passengers to arrive, you might be kept waiting in case the other passengers are on another flight.

I'm not sure if the air-conditioned "Cool cabs" ply directly from the airport to Pune.
But I think they are available from Dadar Asiad stand??

BTW: Mumbai-Pune isn't really a long trip anymore. For starters, it takes probably more time getting to your destination inside the heart of Mumbai from the outskirts (especially during rush hour)than it takes to travel from Pune to the outskirts of Mumbai.
Also, at the rate at which both Mumbai and Pune's geographical boundaries are increasing (including Navi Mumbai,Panvel,Lonavala) soon the Expressway will be re-christened Inner Ring Road or something

EASIEST WAY:

Walk From the terminal to the main road (about 300 mtrs) once you reach the main road or Highway, keep walkign to the left...
Theres a Huge line of Shared Cabs that charge roughly about 200 bucks / head..... They drop you off to Pune Station...

Its very convinient, cheap and Safe.... available 24 hours!
