Flying from Mumbai
Also known as Bombay, Mumbai is one of the busiest cities in the world. Home to over 20 million people, it’s also a huge attraction for overseas business and leisure visitors.
Passengers flying from Mumbai with Qatar Airways will travel through the ultra-modern Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, one of the most important air transport hubs and ranked as the third best in the world in the 25–40 million passengers category by Airports Council International in 2013.
Facilities are outstanding and the efficiency and friendliness of the staff means that travellers will have an excellent passenger experience from start to finish.
Parking and transportation
Mumbai has an extremely efficient public transport system, although because of the sheer number of people crammed into a few square miles, buses and coaches can be very busy.
The transport network includes the Mumbai Suburban Railway, Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) buses, taxis and auto-rickshaws, giving travellers plenty of options for getting to and from the airport.
There are 1500 parking spaces at the International terminal and frequent travellers can book a monthly parking pass, which is considerably more cost effective and efficient.
Arriving at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport
Passengers flying from Mumbai with Qatar Airways depart from Terminal 2, which is the main International Terminal. This huge, brand new terminal has 192 check-in counters and 60 immigration counters, and again because of the sheer number of passengers and flights passing through this airport every day, it is advisable to arrive at least two hours before your flight is due to depart. Lounges are available for all passengers to relax in, including exclusive VIP lounge areas.
Facilities and amenities
The airport is well served with facilities, including plenty of retail outlets and Duty-Free areas, where you can buy everything from local handicrafts to top quality perfume.
The Terminal has its own art exhibitions too, which are a pleasure to look at while waiting for your flight. Wi-Fi is available in public areas, and there is also a luxury wellness area offering everything from quick reflexology foot massages to full body massage and spa treatments.
Arriving in Los Angeles
The ‘City of Angels’ is one of the most remarkable cities on earth. From the coastal communities of Long Beach and Manhattan Beach to the heart of the Hollywood and Beverly Hills, LA is truly extraordinary. This thriving city is also surrounded by spectacular natural beauty including mountain ranges, valleys, forests, beautiful beaches along the Pacific Ocean, and nearby desert.
Book a flight to Los Angeles with Qatar Airways and you’ll immediately discover that one visit is never enough. Beyond the usual tourist hotspots there is so much more to LA, and at Qatar Airways we’re always happy to take you back to this incredible place time and time again. Look beyond the movie sets and trashy tourist spots and discover the real Los Angeles.
Tourist attractions
Once you’ve ticked off the usual LA landmarks such as Hollywood, Universal Studios and Rodeo Drive, it’s time to look a little bit deeper into the city’s diverse attractions. Historical buildings pepper the city, and Olvera Street is the historic centre of LA. El Pueblo de Los Ángeles Historical Monument represents the city’s Spanish/Mexican origins, and a plaque across the plaza commemorates the founding of the city in 1781.
Northeast LA tends to be less overrun with tourists, and is home to several museums and exhibitions that chart the history of California, from its origins through the Gold Rush era and beyond. One of the best of these is The Heritage Square Museum, an open-air museum and historic architecture exhibit in Montecito Heights.
Other museums include the renowned Getty Center, which also has some truly beautiful gardens, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the unusual La Brea Tar Pits and Page Museum, which has the remains of Ice Age creatures and artefacts going back thousands of years.
LA is famous for its parks too. Griffith Park is a former ostrich farm and is now a beautifully landscaped park – a great place to get away from the noise and smog of Downtown LA.
