Mumbai Airport to Pune Cab: Terminal Pickup Guide and 2026 Fares

You have just landed at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSIA) in Mumbai. Your bag is off the carousel, your phone is charged, and you need to get to Pune. The fastest, most stress-free option is a pre-booked cab — and this guide tells you exactly how it works, terminal by terminal.

Whether you arrive at Terminal 1 on a low-cost carrier or at Terminal 2 on an international or premium domestic flight, Orbitmiles operates Mumbai Airport to Pune cab service from both terminals, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with zero surge pricing.

Mumbai Airport (CSIA) to Pune — Quick Facts

Orbitmiles charges a fixed ₹2,700 from Mumbai Airport (CSIA) to Pune in the Citroën ë-C3, ₹3,200 in the MG ZS EV, ₹3,800 in the Kia Clavis EV and ₹6,000 in the hybrid Innova Hycross — 150 km, driver, fuel and the ₹320 expressway toll all included, with no hidden extras. The road distance from Mumbai Airport to most Pune destinations is approximately 150 km door-to-door, and travel time runs 3 to 3.5 hours off-peak, 4 or more hours if you depart between 8 and 11 AM when Mumbai's arterial roads are at their busiest.

That ₹2,700 is genuinely all-in: an app-based cab quoting ₹2,450 for the same run still leaves you the ₹320 expressway toll to pay at Urse and Khalapur, which puts it above the Orbitmiles fare before any surge is applied. Orbitmiles' EVs are exempt from that toll and the Innova Hycross pays it — either way it is inside the price you were quoted.

For travellers flying into Mumbai and continuing to Pune, the airport transfer service is purpose-built for this journey. Your driver tracks your incoming flight and adjusts pickup timing if the flight is early or delayed — no extra cost, no uncertainty.

Terminal 1 (T1 Domestic) Pickup Instructions

Terminal 1 at CSIA handles domestic low-cost carriers. The terminal is smaller and more compact than T2, which makes locating your driver straightforward. Follow these steps on arrival:

Exit via the Ground Floor Arrivals level and walk out to the pre-booked cab pickup area at Gate 1 Exit near the Pillar 4 area. This is the primary pickup point for pre-booked cabs at T1. Your driver's name, phone number and car number reach you on WhatsApp before pickup — call him once you are out and he will bring the car round. If you exit through a different gate or cannot reach him, call +91 90676 76369.

T1 does not have the same depth of signage as T2, so calling on arrival is always a good idea if this is your first time using the terminal. Your booking confirmation will include the driver's name and mobile number.

Terminal 2 (T2 International + Premium Domestic) Pickup Instructions

Terminal 2 is CSIA's flagship terminal and handles all international flights, IndiGo, Air India, and other premium domestic services. It is significantly larger than T1, with a multi-level arrivals zone. Follow these steps after you clear customs or exit the domestic baggage belt:

Exit via Level 1 Arrivals. Your Orbitmiles driver waits at the designated pre-paid cab area outside Arrivals Gate 4. This area is clearly marked and separate from the general taxi queue. Call the driver on the number sent to you on WhatsApp before pickup. If you arrive during a busy international wave and the area is crowded, he will confirm his exact position; if you cannot reach him, call us on +91 90676 76369.

International travellers should account for immigration and customs clearance time — typically 40 to 90 minutes — when calculating their pickup time. When you pre-book and share your flight number, your driver monitors your flight status and adjusts arrival at the terminal accordingly.

Fares by Vehicle for CSIA to Pune

Orbitmiles' CSIA-to-Pune fares are fixed at ₹2,700 in the Citroën ë-C3, ₹3,200 in the MG ZS EV, ₹3,800 in the Kia Clavis EV and ₹6,000 in the hybrid Innova Hycross, inclusive of driver, fuel and the ₹320 expressway toll for 150 km. Beyond 150 km, extra distance is ₹12/km in the ë-C3, ₹20/km in the MG ZS EV and Kia Clavis EV, and ₹24/km in the Innova Hycross. See the full pricing page for detailed breakdowns.

Orbitmiles' Citroën ë-C3 at ₹2,700 is the best-value option for solo travellers and couples. The MG ZS EV at ₹3,200 suits business travellers who want a premium cabin with more boot space. The Kia Clavis EV at ₹3,800 seats up to 6 and, with the third row folded for four passengers, takes four large check-in bags — the family airport car. The Innova Hycross at ₹6,000 is the hybrid choice for maximum comfort and space on the 150 km expressway run.

Pre-Booked Cab vs Arriving and Looking for a Cab

Arriving passengers who rely on walk-up cabs or app bookings at CSIA face three common problems. First, surge pricing at peak hours can add ₹500–₹1,200 to the fare. Second, driver allocation for app bookings at the airport often involves walking to a distant parking zone. Third, walk-up cab operators in the pre-paid queue do not track flight delays — if your flight lands 90 minutes late, you start the process from scratch.

A pre-booked CSIA to Pune cab solves all three problems. Your driver waits regardless of how late your flight lands. Your fare is locked in. And your vehicle is confirmed before you board your outbound flight.

Travel Time by Time of Day

The Mumbai–Pune Expressway (NH48) is one of India's best-maintained intercity highways, but the first 20–40 km from the airport through Mumbai city can vary significantly by departure time. The table below shows realistic door-to-door journey times from CSIA to central Pune based on time of departure from the airport.

If you have a meeting or commitment in Pune and your flight lands during the 8–10 AM window, factor in the additional travel time. For business travellers, landing before 7 AM or after 7 PM gives the most predictable journey times. Orbitmiles drivers are familiar with alternate routes through Vikhroli, Airoli, and the Eastern Expressway to bypass congestion where possible.
