Where to keep luggage in Mumbai International airport?

What are the steps transferring from domestic to international flight in Mumbai Airport?

• I am flying from Nagpur - (Jet Airway) - Mumbai - (Kingfisher Airlines) - Hong Kong. There is a 2-hour transfer time in Mumbai. The timing is tight. I want to find out the process for transferring from domestic to international flight to minimize delay. Here some of the details I've learned: 1. According to my travel agent: I can check luggage from Nagpur to Hong Kong and I should have boarding pass for both flights at Nagpur. 2. Do not leave the Mumbai domestic terminal until you establish transportation from the domestic terminal to international terminal. You are not allowed back into the terminal once you exit. 3. There is a free shuttle between domestic terminal and international terminal that runs every 30-min. The line to the shuttle can be chaotic. 4. I could take a prepaid taxi or meter taxi. (Additional instruction will be appreciated: Where to prepay? How much? Would meter taxi be just easier?) 5. Once I arrive at the international terminal, I need my boarding pass to enter the building. My carry-on will be security-checked. 6. I need to identify my checked luggage before they are transferred to the next flight. 7. I need to clear Indian custom and immigration. (This likely has a long wait time.) 8. I need to pay an airport improvement fee. ( I will keep some Rupee with me. Do I pay it at a kiosk? How much?) 9. There is another security check point before I reach the gate. Anyone who have experienced a domestic to international transfer at Mumbai, your advice, confirmation, and correction on the order of the above steps are very much appreciated. Lariat
