Near the Terminal 1 security area, VIP Lounge Store fills a gap
In BOM Terminal 1, VIP Lounge Store sits on the concourse used mainly for domestic low-cost carriers, so it ends up as a last-minute stop for anyone who skipped the terminal food court. You’ll find basic travel needs here: small snacks, packaged sweets, bottled water, and some simple accessories like neck pillows and power adapters, which is useful if you’re boarding from the older T1 gates and don’t want to walk back toward the main cluster of outlets.
The store keeps airport-style hours, roughly tracking the early-morning bank of departures out of Terminal 1, with shutters usually up before the 05:00 rush and staying open into the late evening after the 22:00 departures. Prices run at the typical BOM markup: expect to pay more than city shops for bottled drinks and packaged food, but not as high as duty-free liquor in Terminal 2. Think of it as a top-up spot, not a place to do real shopping.
Selection focuses on grab-and-go items suited for 60–90 minute domestic flights. You’ll see standard Indian snack brands, single-serve chocolates, and a few small gift-style items that fit easily in a cabin bag. No fresh food counter, no made-to-order coffee bar, and no electronics beyond basic cables and chargers, so plan accordingly if you need a full meal or a serious tech purchase before your flight out of T1.
Practical tip: use VIP Lounge Store to stock water and snacks before boarding from a remote bus gate in Terminal 1, since options near those end gates thin out quickly during peak morning and evening departure banks.
