Check availabilityOn flights to and from the Americas, Emirates Economy Special includes one checked bag of up to 23kg, while Saver, Flex and Flex Plus include two bags of up to 23kg each. Each checked bag can be up to 150cm in total length, width and height. The economy carry-on allowance is 7kg, at most 55 x 38 x 22 cm. On a long trip to India, the jump from one bag to two is often the deciding difference between fare types.
Choosing a regular seat before check-in costs extra on Special and Saver fares and is free on Flex and Flex Plus. Once online check-in opens 48 hours before departure, regular seats are free on every fare; extra legroom seats are always paid.
Air India sells direct flights between the New York area and Mumbai, but its own route pages disagree on whether they leave from JFK or Newark and how often. Ask our advisors which airport and days operate for your dates. Air India's economy allowance from the USA to India is one 23kg bag on Value fares and two on Classic and Flex.
JFK's airline list places Emirates and Air India at Terminal 4. Newark's list places both at Terminal B. Your ticket names the airport; leave extra time if you are coming from across the city.
US citizens apply for an Indian e-Visa only on indianvisaonline.gov.in. Your passport must be valid 6 months from arrival with 2 blank pages, and you should apply at least 4 days before you land. Mumbai accepts e-Visa arrivals.
International flights use Mumbai's Terminal 2, and a free shuttle runs to Terminal 1 for domestic connections. App cabs from Ola, Uber and Rapido pick up from marked zones in the airport car parks.

Air India sells direct flights, but its own pages differ on the New York airport and frequency. Every fare in our 16 Oct 2026 check had one stop, so ask an advisor what operates on your dates.
