i arrive at the 22.3. at 11 in the night in bombay.
does anybody know the fastest way to goa?
will there be still flights to buy which leave after 11 in the night?
theres a train which leaves in the morning, when does it leave and how long does it take?
i have just 10 days of holidays, so wanna relax a bit in goa, travel around the beaches.
which are good places to stay? resorts close to the sea? parties...?
any single woman traveller done the same, is it more or less save (i have travelled months in whole latin america which is probably much less save...)?

Your best bet would be to take a flite - there are some which leave in the morning - Goa is just an hour away and if you are lucky you may get a cheap fare -Spicejet , Air Deccan etc are some of the low cost carriers .
The trains are there at I believe around 11 pm but there is no way you would be able to catch them .There is also a Janshatabdi in the morning -check www.irctc.co.in for details and booking - the train journey would take around 7-8 hrs.,
Cheers

Options are:
Early morning flight around 5 AM. Which means you hang around at the airport for a couple of hours between clearing customs and checking in for your goa flight.
Goa flight is from domestic terminal. Since you have plenty of time on your hands you can wait for the free inter terminal shuttle.
If you are in a rush, take a prepaid cab which will cost Rs 200.
Train is 2051 Jan shatabdi express from Dadar to Madgaon (goa) at 5:30 AM. Reaches Goa 2 PM same day.
Airport to Dadar prepaid cab is around 250 or 300 Rs.

why cant u buy it right now?
flight ticket or rail ticket? and take a print out?
at the airport on counter the rates will be rack rates. therefore expensive.
after arrving, immigration baggage customs, you would have spent around an hour plus. not accounting for delays.
Check in time for domestic flight is 1 hour prior to dep.
Which means you need to spend only 3 to 4 hours loitering around.
if you decide to go to a hotel near the airport (all expensive 5 stars) you waste another 45 min to an hour in checking in etc.

is it possible to buy inland flights (Bombay - Goa) online from Europe (with credit card payment)?
