Check Live NMI Flight Status

For a specific flight, the airport’s own live system is the most reliable source: it shows scheduled and updated time, airline, flight number, terminal, gate and current status. Don’t rely on a saved screenshot, social-media post or older timetable: flight times and routes change, so always check the live board or your airline directly before leaving for the airport.

NMI vs BOM: Check Your Airport

Mumbai now has flights using two different airports. Check the airport name and code on your ticket before you leave home: Navi Mumbai International Airport uses NMI, while Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport uses BOM. They are different airports, so confirming which one your flight uses before leaving can prevent a major travel disruption.

Where Can You Fly From NMIA?

Domestic Flights

NMIA serves a growing domestic network, with current routes and frequencies changing as airlines adjust their schedules. Rather than relying on a fixed destination list, which can go out of date quickly, use NMIA’s live departure search to check whether a route is operating on your travel date. Search by city, airline or flight number.

FLY91’s four reported routes from NMIA are Sindhudurg, Jalgaon, Goa and Agatti.

International Flights

NMIA supports international passenger operations from Terminal 1. They began on 15 July 2026 with Air India Express flight IX207 to Abu Dhabi. Air India’s newsroom, writing on 16 July 2026, said the airline was then flying the route three times a week. On NMIA’s airline page, Air India Express is the only airline marked for international flights. Routes and frequencies change as airlines adjust their networks, so check NMIA’s live flight-status page and your airline’s current schedule for your travel date.

Terminal 1

Current scheduled passenger flights (domestic and international) operate from Terminal 1. Always reconfirm the terminal on your ticket or the airport’s live flight-status page before travelling, because terminal arrangements can change as NMIA expands.

Winter Schedule From 25 October 2026

Adani Airports said on 5 October 2026 that the winter schedule runs from 25 October 2026 to 27 March 2027. Airlines can add, drop or retime flights when a schedule changes, so check your airline’s timetable and NMIA’s live board for any flight you book after 25 October. On 14 October 2026, Mumbai International Airport Limited published a media statement saying its leadership met the airlines’ operators committee and committed not to disturb any slots for the winter schedule. It said a joint working group would draft a plan for the Terminal 1 redevelopment over the next two weeks, that airlines had committed to support traffic balancing from the summer schedule, and that both sides would meet again on 28 October. Check the airport named on your ticket, because plans can change after that meeting.

How to Check Your NMIA Flight

  1. Open NMIA’s official flight-status page.
  2. Select Arrival or Departure.
  3. Choose your travel date.
  4. Search by flight number, airline or city.
  5. Check the scheduled and updated time.

Parking at NMIA

Parking is available at Navi Mumbai International Airport. For current parking zones, charges, payment options and any pre-booking facilities, see the dedicated NMIA Parking Guide or the official airport parking information. This page doesn’t maintain parking rates.

Getting to NMIA

Road travel time to NMIA varies substantially by origin, route and traffic, so use live navigation before you leave rather than relying on a citywide travel-time estimate. There is currently no direct operational metro or rail connection to the airport. Navi Mumbai Metro Line 1 is operational between CBD Belapur and Pendhar, but it doesn’t reach NMIA, so travellers using public transport may need a road transfer for the final leg.

For turn-by-turn transport options, road routes and public-transport connections, see the dedicated How to Reach NMIA guide. For current metro fares and station status, see the Metro Guide. For airport location, road connectivity, Atal Setu and future metro links, see the main Navi Mumbai International Airport status and connectivity guide. This page doesn’t duplicate that detail. For the planned Metro Line 2 to the airport, see the Navi Mumbai Metro Line 2 guide.

Flight-Day Checklist

  • Check that NMI (not BOM) appears on your ticket
  • Confirm your flight’s current status on NMIA’s live flight-status page
  • Confirm your terminal (Terminal 1)
  • Follow your airline’s reporting/check-in time rather than a generic rule
  • Plan your road route in advance and allow for traffic variability
  • If you’re driving yourself, check the current NMIA Parking Guide for zones and charges
  • Don’t rely on an old screenshot or saved timetable. Recheck live before you leave

Sources & Methodology

Current airline and terminal information comes from Navi Mumbai International Airport’s official website, including its airline-information and lounge pages. Live flight information comes from NMIA’s official arrivals and departures system. Facility information comes from NMIA’s official airport-facilities, services and shop-and-dine pages. Winter schedule dates are from Adani Airports’ media releases of 5 and 6 October 2026, and the start of international flights is from Adani’s release of 6 October 2026 and Air India’s newsroom of 16 July 2026.
