Passengers flying from Mumbai Airport can now pick up last minute travel essentials and take advantage of a new baggage shipping service.

Luggage retailer Excess Baggage Company has opened a pop-up outlet within the airport to retail a broad range of travel goods including Carlton luggage and accessories. Linked to the unit, a baggage shipping service allows passengers to forward unaccompanied luggage. It marks Excess Baggage Company’s first business in India.

The new outlets are part of the airport’s current drive to further enhance its passenger facilities in advance of the opening of its new terminal early next year.

“The airport’s new retail facilities will bring respected and globally recognised brands that are an essential constituent of the shopping experience at an international airport of standing,” said Excess Baggage Company MD David Elliott.

“At Excess Baggage, we can offer a comprehensive range of services to make travelling through Mumbai an even better experience, and we very much hope to be bringing more facilities to the airport’s passengers in the near future. We are very keen to develop our presence here in India, both in the airport and rail station sectors,” he said.
