Airline overview
Air Mauritius has been Mauritius's national carrier since 1967 (flying since 1972), operating a compact 12-aircraft fleet from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport to roughly 14 destinations across Europe, Africa, and Asia. The flagship A350-900s carry a Stelia Solstys III business cabin — 28 fully lie-flat seats in 1-2-1, every one with direct aisle access — the aircraft to aim for over the older A330s. Regionally it anchors the Vanilla Alliance of Indian Ocean carriers.
Founded in 1967, Air Mauritius is headquartered in Mauritius and operates to 14+ destinations across 80+ countries. The fleet is built around Airbus A350-900, Airbus A330-900neo and Airbus A330-200 for long-haul operations, with additional narrowbody types on regional routes. Air Mauritius operates independently of major global alliances, with select bilateral partnerships for codesharing.
The business class experience
Air Mauritius Business Class features Stelia Solstys III (A350) — fully lie-flat, 1-2-1, all 28 seats with direct aisle access. Seat width is ~22 inches (A350; wider than the A330neo cabin) and fully extended bed length is 44 inch pitch, fully horizontal lie-flat (A350) — comfortable for passengers up to about 6'3" (190cm) to sleep fully flat. The seat layout on Air Mauritius's long-haul widebody aircraft typically offers direct aisle access for every business class passenger, so you never have to climb over a seatmate.
In-flight entertainment is delivered via 17-inch touchscreen (A350). Dining on Air Mauritius: Mauritian Creole and French-inspired cuisine. Baggage allowance in business class: 2 × 32kg checked. All flights include amenity kits, premium bedding, and priority boarding/baggage handling.
Lounges and ground experience
At the home hub: Amédée Maingard Lounge (MRU). At other airports worldwide: Contract lounges at partner airports. Lounge access is included with your business class ticket — you show your boarding pass at the lounge entrance and receive food, drinks, WiFi, and dedicated workspaces until boarding time.
On the ground at departure, Air Mauritius business class passengers get dedicated check-in counters, fast-track security lanes where available, and priority boarding. At arrival, baggage is tagged with priority labels and comes out first — typically saving 15-30 minutes versus economy on heavily-loaded flights.
What travelers say
“The A350 is the aircraft to book — an intimate 28-seat lie-flat cabin that flown reviewers consistently rate as the airline's best product; bedding quality draws the main criticism. Creole cuisine and hospitality are a genuine part of the appeal. A natural honeymoon-route pick given the destination.”
