Hi all-
I'll be transiting domestic-international, arriving at BOM from Pune at 6:25pm on Jet and then leaving on BA at 2:30am. I'm assuming (please correct me if I'm wrong) that it would be too risky timewise to try to go into Mumbai and get back for my flight, so I was thinking of taking a taxi to one of the fancy hotels near the international terminal and having a nice dinner, before trying to go through immigration and security and the like. Does that make sense as a plan, or is there somewhere better nearby to go to kill some time before my international flight? Any suggestions for which restaurant might be worth a visit?
FWIW, I'm not sure if they'll interline my bags-- my itinerary from my TA shows two different PNRs for those flights, but when I look up my BA PNR on the BA website, it does show the Jet flight so there's at least some chance they'll let me check everything in at Pune and not have to carry it about.
thanks for the help.
