FAQs - booking Mauritius flights

  • I am flying to Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport. Will I find transport from here to the city?

    Yes, you will. Despite having numerous islands, the country has an elaborate transport system. For example, you can conveniently catch a taxi from the airport to different hotels and restaurants in Mauritius. Additionally, three bus services ply the SSR route daily. The bus ride is quite budget-friendly, as you will be charged around 30 Mauritian Rupees (close to $1).

  • Is there a private place where I can pray at Plaisance Airport?

    Yes, if you need to pray when you land at Plaisance Airport, you can get a conducive atmosphere and privacy in the prayer room at the departure hall, boarding side just next to gate 22. Here, you can pray and meditate in a quiet place despite the chaos of the busy airport.

  • Which Airport should I fly to if I want to visit the Black River Gorges National Park?

    Located in the hilly southwest part of the country, the national park is a popular tourist attraction. If the park is among your top priority visits, then it would be best if you booked a flight to Beckley (BKW) Airport. This is because of its proximity to the park, with just 8.3 miles separating the two.

  • Is there a place I can freshen up after landing in Mauritius?

    Yes, after your long flight, you can freshen up with a shower at one of the lounges in Plaisance Airport before heading out. These include Salon Nenuphar at the new terminal building opposite Boarding Gate 19 and Amedee Maingard Lounge at the airside. You can pay at the door to access both lounges if you do not have premium membership.

  • Which Airport is close to the Ile aux Cerfs?

    The closest airport to the Ile aux Cerfs is the Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport (MRU); it is just 13 miles away. From here, you can take a taxi or use the public transport system. The good thing about these public transport systems is that they are cheaper, thus coming in handy for people traveling under a tight budget.

  • Where can I sleep at Plaisance Airport if my flight arrives late?

    Unfortunately, there are no sleeping pods or onsite hotels at Plaisance Airport to accommodate you if you arrive in Mauritius too late. However, you can settle for one of the hotels near the airport for some rest before daybreak. The nearest hotel is Holiday Inn Mauritius Airport, 0.4 miles from the terminal. It has free airport shuttles on request.

  • How do I get to the city center from the airport?

    Mauritius has an elaborate transport system, meaning that you won’t have a hard time moving from one point to another. For example, if you are arriving at the Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport (MRU), you can arrange for a private airport transfer from the airport to your place of residence. For those looking for cheaper options, Mauritius has public transport options such as buses and coaches. For the buses, the bus stop is situated within the airport car parks. Other forms of transfer include commercial vans, standard sedans, and car rentals. Lastly, if you want to visit multiple places within a limited space of time, you can still opt for flights within the country. Even though there aren’t many, the airports in Mauritius are quite effective even for domestic flights. For taxis, most are available outside the terminal buildings and airports at all times. However, to be on the safe side, it would be best if you agreed on a price prior to boarding the taxi.

  • What airport should I land in when I want to visit Rodrigues Island?

    If you want to visit Rodrigues Island, you can take a flight from Plaisance Airport to Sir Gaetan Duval Airport (RRG). The airport is about 6 miles from the city center. The easiest way to get to the city center from the airport is by taxi or a rental car.

  • Can I rent a car from Plaisance Airport?

    Yes, you can rent a car from Plaisance Airport. The rental car agencies including SIXT, ADA, First, Europcar, Dollar, Hertz, and Budget are outside the terminal building behind the parking lot as you exit the airport to your left. To rent a car, you should be at least 21 years old and have a valid driving license.

  • Can I take a bus from Sir Gaetan Duval Airport to the city center?

    Yes, there is a public bus stand outside the terminal building near Plaine Corail Police Station at Sir Gaetan Duval Airport.

  • If you are hungry after your flight, you can grab a bite at Subway near Gate 25, Paul between Gates 23 and 24, or Café Lux near Gate 14 when you land at Sir Seewoosagur Airport (MRU), also called Plaisance Airport.
  • There are no direct flights from the USA to Mauritius. However, this should not worry you since the country is well-connected to all the major cities in the world.
  • You can fly from Sir Gaetan Duval Airport (RRG) on Rodrigues Island to Saint Denis de la Reunion in Reunion, an island in the Indian Ocean. This is the only international destination from this second-largest airport in Mauritius.
  • You do not need a visa to visit Mauritius. They have lenient immigration policies that can allow you to stay in the country even up to 90 days.

we bought trip insurance from you and could not use it. 'underrated' only return 50 % of trip cost. my doctor told me i have stage 4 cancer and that I might not live till the end of the month..

Flight got canceled without any prior information and it caused lot of trouble

Staff were friendly, and provided great service. The food was plentiful and delicious. Food could have been hotter.

I was traveling business purposes and I only had one carry on and a personal computer back pack . My carry on was 8.5 kg little more than allowable. At jfk airport check in they did not let me carry it . I was little disappointed.

More leg room and comfortable seats at least for long flights

The entertainment selections are amazing. But the live TV is sometimes spotty. If you’re going to have it, then have it. If you can’t make it consistent, then, perhaps it’s better not to have it. The crew are always cordial when approached, but they seem to do the minimum and sit around, talking to each other in the back of the plane during the flight. I realize that delays are not always predictable, but I missed my flight in Dubai because we left 90 minutes late from Washington. I will say that Emirates took very good care of me in Dubai. But I would rather not be delayed.

Probably the best flight I’ve ever been on. Emirates first class is leagues beyond British airways and Lufthansa’s.

Great flight. Comfortable seats, courteous service, and excellent selection for entertainment.

Serving food took so long . Almost time close to lend. Plus during landing air pressure in cabin cuss ear blocked took long time to unblock.

Emirates is usually on time, but not this trip. Also, during the flight the attendants disappear unless called upon. Very strange. I have watched the quality of Emirates service diminish over the last five years.

Crew members were good. Seats were packed and too tight .

Carry on luggage size for economy passengers significantly smaller than other airlines, so nearly all ecomy passengers had their bags taken and checked.

Had a short layover in Zurich, luggage marked expedite and short layover but still didn’t get luggage when arrived in Split until 3 days later even though husband got his.

On time flight, I requested wheelchair in Zurich , when I arrived they were no where to be found, I had one hour between flights I had to walk with great difficulty.

We had issues with upgrading our seats. The flight itself was fine.

Horrible experience. They "GAME" with seats they decided to play where you can`t select or get seat during check-in without paying and then forcing you to stay long line at the Customer Service at the gate to get a boarding ticket with seat assigned is pathetic. Will never fly with United again!

So terrible. They would not rebook me for a flight until 2 days. I had to spend so much money to get my own flight. They were rude and not helpful.

Overall a good experience, the flight was on time, the crew very attentive and friendly. However the seats are too cramped, there is no space, and as soon as the person in front reclines the seat, it's literally in your face.

Bag lost. Lost bag recovery process is an unsatisfying customer experience. Because 1) bag is still lost but also 2) the process is outdated and form-heavy and 3) in our case also involved a long line.

We were very impressed with Swiss Air. The service was exceptional. Unfortunately, we had a baby behind us that screamed for hours. , It was a nightmare, though I completely understand that it was not Swiss Airs fault.

Medíocre. The food wasn't good (although not bad, bad) and the staff wasn't kind. I asked for n extra blanket, the steward never came back, serving us roughly.

Generally good. The crew is excellent. The food could be better.

They wanted to close counter although they did not provide the wheelchair requested which ended by going alone to transit security and lost long time and they did not want to wait .

Did not find the wheelchair that supposed to assist and went to a long queue for transit security chk which was very slow and boarding desk wanted to close counter although that they knew that I am minutes away because of their mistake of not providing the wheelchair.

Good aorcraft 777 but Worst food ever Breakfast was a bû’with matonnaise… Staff was nice but invisible most of the flight

Business class in the second leg - CDG-EVN was a disaster.

Everything went smoothly with Air France. There was a delay in departure which seemed to relate to the immigration services being short staffed.

worst experience ever i choose my seat in advance and also have my seat selected in my boarding and the they told me that my seat has been changed without notify me

I have used Air France and KLM many times it will help if they change their menu's feel like it's been the same for years!!!, Especially the breakfast. Overall the flight was good and enjoyable.

No bording was given for next trip on same carrier, food was very moderate.

I was in business class, without the business class amenities. Large seat with lots of legroom, but no TV or bed. Food was okay, but I did enjoy the Turkish red wine.

Excellent service and comfort from the moment you check in. Flight crew is hyper focused on making passengers comfortable and at ease. It’s like a flying hotel!

Only chicken as a meat dish through out the flight

Nothing really was great as such. Seen other no name airlines perform better.

Quality of service on board was very inconsistent. FA service primarily seemed robotic and they barely engaged with passengers

I’m unclear why I had to pay extra for assigned seats as Turkish airlines did not honor the seating. We were placed across the aisle from each other on TK 34, and were seated behind one another on TK 694. Because my name was misspelled on e-ticket (Klawiter, instead of Klawitter) I could not log onto website to get the connection gate number in Istanbul. The monitors in the airport were a jumbled mess 1/2 Arabic and 1/2 English.

On line check in needs a lot of improvement. I tried and gave up.

Food not good, flight attendants not the best, not accommodating very ruff

the female flight attendant was racist towards me. I could tell she treated the two other passengers next to me with more softness.

Oh my god! For an13 hour flight they serve you food just one time. Also don’t be thirsty they give you a little small cup of soda to drink. They seem like their goal is to feed you one so they don’t have to be bothered with you. It quite surprise for such a long flight there are several times to eat at least three and the food was well lackluster. The food and lack of offering drinks which were always hot no ice provided.

Food was great. They never to add more current entertainment like movies and shows

Paid an extra USD 100 for so-called Comfort seats. All of these (the bulkhead seats) had parents with babies and infants who were screaming much of the time. One mother even decided to change nappies on the seat. This was anything but comfort!

Front section of economy cabin is better than rear. Paid for seats selected.

Good flight. Paid for seats sat the frront section of the economy. Better than rear cabin.

Flight was delayed for 9 hours. We finally arrived ved at 0435hrs instead of 1950hrs the previous day. No compensation was provided.

Apart from delay of 3 hrs in Nairobi for onward flight to Dar all fine. Looked like operational issues caused it.

I booked a round trip flight and boarded a Kenya Airways trip from New York (JFK) to Nairobi (JKIA). First flight from New York to Nairobi was uneventful with no issues. However, the return flight was beyond disappointing. To begin with I had paid an extra $60 each for premium seats (me and my wife) in economy aisle 15 (B & A). However, upon settling down in the middle seat, I noticed that the controller had been ripped off meaning I would not have access to some of the seat functionalities like the individual lighting etc. I proceeded to alert a flight attendant that the controller was missing and she politely responded to me by telling me if I need anything, to use my wife’s seat controller (on the window seat) to call for assistance and I would be assisted accordingly. I was surprised by the response that she gave as it felt like my comfort and request for a service that I paid for was undermined, but nonetheless I opted to play it nice and kept my calm. After this I engaged in a conversation with a passenger (Caucasian / White male) who sat next to me on the aisle seat. In the process of having this conversation I asked him if he had paid for his seat. He went ahead to politely tell me that he had been moved from a seat in the back by one of the flight attendants and had not paid any extra fees. During this conversation, he noticed that the charging docks were not working and he needed to charge his iPad to watch his Netflix show (it was on pause). Alarmed by this, he went ahead and flagged one of the flight attendants who without wasting any time acted astonished and as fast as lightning was able to find him a better seat a few rows in front. Please note, all the charging plugs were not working for the three seats. In summary, below are the reasons for the low rating: 1. Charging for a broken seat: Kenya Airways should not charge for a defective seat. If a seat is defective and is paid for, the airlines should work out a way to either refund the customer or move the customer to a better seat – regardless of skin color. 2. Below Par Customer Service: Do not debilitate a customer’s request especially when a paid for service is not delivered – regardless of skin color. Assuming that I am comfortable with having to either keep alerting the flight attendant or relying on my wife’s seat to perform some of the functionality I may need is ridiculous. 3. Biasness / Inequality / Prejudiced Behavior: The Caucasian/ White male was treated with more favor. Not only was he moved around to make sure he was comfortable (free of charge) but all his complaints were resolved immediately without any hesitance. On the contrary, I being a black man of African descent who had paid an additional premium for his seat, I was completely ignored and told to settle for what I got.

It has been 1 week since arriving at my destination and I still have not recieved my kite surfing bags. Office will not communicate properly on location or when my bags will arrive. No advice on what to do on luggage that has not arrived in over a week. Simply not happy with Kenya airways at the moment.

On a long flight us customers need more rehydration by the crew. Some of us have water bottles but no crew is coming around to offer water. I’m not saying issue us all with plastic water bottles.

My flight from Nairobi to nyc. My seat made noise and moved around. The two toilets in the back didn’t work well cause you didn’t know if someone was in there cause the light didn’t work. The bathroom doors didn’t lock well either, so I walked in on someone. The crew wasn’t quick or super helpful. When I went to get something they were chatting and they would look at me, continue on with their conversation and finally I would interrupt to get a drink.
