Flying to New York from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj

If you're flying into New York City from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) and wondering where to find legal cannabis near JFK or Newark Liberty International Airport — the answer is simple: New York State has hundreds of licensed adult-use dispensaries, and Silly Nice products are available at 150+ of them statewide. You're in the right city, and we've got you covered.

New York State legalized adult-use cannabis in 2021, and the legal retail market has been growing rapidly ever since. As a visitor arriving from Mumbai or anywhere else in India, here's what you need to know before you walk into a dispensary. First and most importantly: you must be 21 years of age or older to purchase cannabis in New York. You will need a valid government-issued photo ID — your passport works perfectly. Second, cannabis can only be legally purchased from a licensed adult-use dispensary. These dispensaries are regulated by the New York State Office of Cannabis Management (OCM), and every product on their shelves has been tested, verified, and labeled to state standards. You will not find legal cannabis at bodegas, street vendors, or unlicensed shops. Buying from unlicensed sources is illegal and puts you at risk — stick to licensed dispensaries and look for brands with full lab transparency. Third, cannabis consumption in New York follows public use rules. You may not consume cannabis in federal buildings, airports, vehicles, or most indoor public spaces. Always confirm where you can legally consume before using any product.

Nonstop and connecting flights from Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) in Mumbai arrive at two major New York City area airports: John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in Queens, and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) in Newark, New Jersey. Both are major international hubs, and both put you within easy reach of New York City's thriving licensed cannabis retail landscape. From JFK, the AirTrain connects to the NYC subway system, giving you access to all five boroughs. Ride-share services and taxis are also available at both airports. From EWR, NJ Transit trains run directly into Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan. Once you're in the city — whether you're staying in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx, or anywhere across the metro area — finding a licensed dispensary carrying Silly Nice products is straightforward. We're in 150+ dispensaries across New York State, and many of those locations are clustered right in and around the city. Use our store locator at sillynice.com/dispensaries to find the nearest licensed retailer before or after you land.

We are Silly Nice — a Black-owned, Veteran-owned, LGBTQ+-owned, family-run cannabis brand based in Brooklyn, New York. We were co-founded by Shane Breen, a U.S. Army Veteran, and LeVar Thomas, his partner of 25 years. We launched in March 2024 with one clear mission: to bring small-batch, premium-quality cannabis products to New York's licensed adult-use market — products built on transparency, integrity, and craft. What does that mean in practice? It means every single product we make is lab-tested with published Certificates of Analysis (COAs) available on our website at sillynice.com/menu. It means we use sustainable packaging. It means we never cut corners on quality because we believe people — whether they're lifelong New Yorkers or first-time visitors from Mumbai — deserve to know exactly what they're putting in their body. In less than two years since our launch, Silly Nice products are now available at over 150 licensed New York State dispensaries. That's not an accident. That's the result of making products that dispensary buyers, budtenders, and customers actually believe in. If you've flown thousands of miles from BOM to JFK or EWR and you want to experience the best of New York's legal cannabis market, we are the brand that belongs on your list.

Can I bring cannabis I purchase in New York back to India or onto my return flight from JFK? Absolutely not. Cannabis remains federally illegal in the United States, and international transport of cannabis — in any direction — is a serious federal and international criminal offense. Any cannabis purchased legally in New York State must be consumed within the state and may never be taken into any airport, onto any aircraft, or transported across state or international borders. Do not attempt to travel with cannabis under any circumstances.

Is cannabis legal for tourists and international visitors in New York? Yes. New York's adult-use cannabis law applies to all adults 21 and older who are physically present in New York State, regardless of country of origin or citizenship. As an international visitor from India arriving at JFK or EWR, you are legally permitted to purchase cannabis at a licensed dispensary using your valid passport as identification. Your immigration status does not affect your ability to make a legal adult-use cannabis purchase in New York State under state law, though you should always consult your own legal counsel if you have specific concerns.

How is New York's legal cannabis different from what I might encounter elsewhere? New York's adult-use cannabis market is one of the most regulated in the world. Every product sold at a licensed dispensary has been tested by an independent, state-approved laboratory and must meet strict standards for potency, purity, and safety. When you buy Silly Nice products — or any product at a licensed New York dispensary — you are buying something that has been verified and labeled according to state law. This is very different from unregulated or black-market cannabis anywhere in the world. Our COAs are publicly available at sillynice.com/menu so you can verify exactly what you're buying before you make a purchase.
