Car rentals are available at the airport, but driving yourself can be challenging due to heavy traffic and local road conditions.

For a budget-friendly option, the suburban train network connects to the airport via Vile Parle (for the domestic terminal) and Andheri (for the international terminal) stations, though you’ll need a short auto-rickshaw ride from the station to the terminal.
