Regional carrier Star Air will launch five-weekly Embraer 145 flights between Mumbai and Mundra on 23 June, linking India’s financial capital with Gujarat’s fast-growing port and renewable-energy hub. Departures are scheduled for Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, with a block time of 90 minutes.
Business travellers flying this new sector who require last-minute visa extensions, multiple-entry permits, or even assistance with OCI cards can streamline their paperwork through VisaHQ’s India portal (https://www.visahq.com/india/). The platform offers online applications, document pickup and real-time status alerts, ensuring passengers spend less time queuing and more time overseeing projects at Mundra.
The service is expected to benefit project managers overseeing Adani’s green-hydrogen plant and logistics executives using Mundra as a gateway for north-west hinterland cargo. Mundra currently relies on a six-hour drive from Bhuj or a 12-hour train from Mumbai. By slashing transit times, the flight should accelerate crew changes for offshore wind-farm construction and improve emergency-response coverage for refinery operations. Star Air says it will offer through-check-in to Goa, Surat and Bengaluru via its existing network, effectively creating a one-stop air bridge between India’s western ports and southern manufacturing clusters. Introductory fares start at ₹5,499 and include a 15-kg baggage allowance—positioned to attract small-batch exporters who previously trucked samples overnight. Aviation analysts note that the route enjoys government viability-gap funding under UDAN 5.0, underscoring New Delhi’s push to democratise air access to secondary industrial towns.
