What BOM to HAN looks like
The BOM to HAN sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Mumbai BOM to Hanoi HAN is a medium haul sector of 3,440 km by great circle, flown nonstop about twice a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 3,440 km, 880 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 4h 39m.
Mumbai BOM is a large airport in the network held here, 106 scheduled destinations and 372.3 departures a day. Hanoi HAN has 87 destinations and 368.8 departures a day.
Hanoi is 1.5 hours ahead of Mumbai all year.
The pair sits inside Asia Pacific, a corridor where the site already publishes 16 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on BOM to HAN from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| BOM to HAN | 2 | 14 | Starlight Airline, VietJetAir, Vietnam Airlines |
| HAN to BOM | 1.04 | 7.3 | Starlight Airline, VietJetAir, Vietnam Airlines |
3 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
The two directions are not level: BOM to HAN runs about twice a day, the return runs about once a day, and a round trip has to be planned around the thinner of the two.
Between them the two directions put about 21.3 departures a week on BOM to HAN, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 4h 39m block time on BOM to HAN. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to BOM | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At BOM before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| BOM to HAN in the air, estimated | 279 min | 9h 09m |
| Formalities at HAN | 90 min | 10h 39m |
| Delivery run in Hanoi | 45 min | 11h 24m |
| Door to door | 684 min | 11h 24m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for BOM to HAN is 11h 24m.
A courier who leaves Mumbai at 09:00 local is on the ground in Hanoi at about 15:09 local and at the door by 17:24 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Hanoi, the last useful departure from Mumbai is around 09:36 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 23 of them join BOM to HAN.
| Connecting at | BOM to hub, flights a day | Hub to HAN, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kolkata CCU | 12.71 | 1.14 | 3,463 | 6h 26m |
| Hyderabad HYD | 15.29 | 0.57 | 3,528 | 6h 38m |
| Ahmedabad AMD | 14 | 0.57 | 3,860 | 6h 46m |
| Bangalore BLR | 29.43 | 0.86 | 3,944 | 6h 49m |
| Bangkok DMK | 0.57 | 2.29 | 3,991 | 6h 52m |
| Bangkok BKK | 5.86 | 12.86 | 4,026 | 7h 10m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at BOM in the afternoon actually flies on.
23 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Kolkata CCU, where the weaker of the two legs still runs about once a day.
Through CCU the routing covers 3,463 km against the 3,440 km nonstop track and takes about 6h 26m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 47m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Hyderabad HYD at 6h 38m and Ahmedabad AMD at 6h 46m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Mumbai, Pune PNQ is 124 km away by great circle and carries 34 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for BOM to HAN in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
