How To Reach Mumbai Airport From Pune?

[Divindra]

I have recently booked a flight ticket from Pune to Delhi, for some reason the departure airport is showing as Mumbai airport when Pune airport had been chosen. I have contacted the travel agency and they are denying that they have made a mistake and are unable to change the departure airport unless a payment is made which is a lot.

So my only option that remains is traveling from Mumbai airport, therefore I need to know how to reach Mumbai airport from Pune?
