How To Reach St Petersburg From Mumbai

Located 23 km south of St Petersburg is the Pulkovo International Airport which supports the city’s international traffic. One can take cabs, buses or subways to reach the center of St Petersburg city from the airport. It does not take more than 30-45 minutes to make the journey even with heavy traffic.

By Air: There is no Mumbai to St Petersburg flight that travels directly and nonstop. Unlike Delhi, Mumbai does not have a direct flight to Moscow either. However, many people prefer the New Delhi-Moscow-St Petersburg route for familiarity purposes as this route is served by Jet Airways and Aeroflot. Among other convenient options, there is Emirates via Dubai, Qatar Airways via Doha or Lufthansa via Frankfurt.

By Road: There are ways to go from Mumbai to St Petersburg other than flight. Road trips are possible to make. But with a distance of over 5000 km, it is not the best-suited one unless you are planning on an expedition.

By Rail: There is obviously no railway connection for the Mumbai and St Petersburg distance, but there are trains from Moscow. So if you want to stop at the capital first and then make your way to St Pete’s trains can be a good idea.
