Transit in Mumbai - NCL-DXB-BOM-IXE
 

Hi,

I am travelling from Newcastle to Mangalore via Dubai on Emirates with a Jet airways connection in Mumbai. Emirates reaches mumbai at 8:10am and my domestic connection is at 20:55pm the same day.

I have never done this before, so can anyone here please help me with my queries?

1. Do I have to collect my luggage at BOM if though it's checked-in through to be collected at Mangalore(IXE) - The complete journey is on one single ticket.

2. If so, can I check-in my bag at the Jet Airways luggage transfer desk so after I clear customs even though my flight is at 20:55?

3. I'll have the DF shopping in my hand luggage - chocolates, perfumes..etc - How can I get these through security?

4. Also, will I be allowed to check-in my hang-luggage at the domestic check-in desks when i board my domestic connection?

Thank you.

1. Yes, customs clearance is in BOM
2. Yes, you just hand it to 9W at the counter just to the right after you clear customs.
3. Liquids need to go in your checked luggage after clearing customs.
4. Hang luggage? :) Yes you can check in additional luggage at the domestic terminal, but not after security.

just make sure the perfume bottles do not exceed 100ml....if they do then they need to be checked in....

why would you want to check in your hand luggage????you can do this however when you are checking in your bags with jet after clearing customs....just be mindful of your baggage allowance....
