Welcome PrincessJessie

1. BA will not through check your bags. You will need to claim your bags and recheck...and you will therefore need to get an Indian visa. It has never taken me more than an hour from arrival to being fully landside, so you should have time even if BA are an hour late. The one thing I am not sure is how you get to departures from arrival. When you are travelling in April? I'm likely to be there sometime early in the month so can have a scout around.

2. The old BA lounge is closed, but there is the new 'sort of' BA lounge I referred to in my original post. It's certainly no worse than the old lounges.

3. Yes, you will have to do it in reverse. So get a double entry visa! The 198 is dead boring, but F at least gives you plenty of space and time to enjoy the booze.

I'd suggest the Marriott in Juhu for your overnight - nicer than the airport area. If you don't want the short trip, Hyatt, Royal Meridien and Sheraton are all good.

Have a great honeymoon.
