Air Mauritius

London Heathrow to Mauritius return. I'm 5'10 and average build and found I had sufficient room to recline and doze a bit for the 12 hr flight. The inflight entertainment was good with a large touchscreen offering recent movies tv documentaries and games - all on-demand. The only drawback is that the screen is sometimes too touch sensitive or not at all which can be frustrating at times. Going out mine froze all together once but the stewardess reset it within minutes. The food was tasty and service not intrusive. However there was no announcement that drinks were always available in the galley - I only knew this from previous reviews. Flight out was just 1 hr delayed due to late inbound arrival but return flight taxied dead on time and arrived 30 mins early.

Paris to Mauritius return on Business with a promotional fare. Warm welcome from staff served a choice of pre- flights drinks with a local tropical touch. Starters main courses and desserts tasty and again with a creole twist that was memorable. The lie-flat seat is comfortable with relax and massage options. Plenty of space for storage and water bottles provided before going to sleep. Only 2 things to improve - the IFE is not on-demand and the choice of movies is limited there are no snacks/drinks buffet on overnight flights which last about 11 hrs. Otherwise a satisfying trip where I managed to get 7 hrs sleep.

Mauritius to London Heathrow. The service was below average. Food was satisfactory although served chicken for every meal. The television did not work I told a cabin crew member 3 times and she simply said 'ok I'll come back to you' she didn't for 12 hours. As for the other points they were satisfactory. Not much leg space and variety of films and shows.

MAU to SYD. Flight was ok nice aircraft but as for cabin service - well your on your own. If you need the toilet join the line of Economy passengers for Business Class facilities. A request for water was met with "try economy".

Business Class from MUR to Paris. Usual great service. Clean A340. Crew very pleasant and smiling. Wines and food was ok. Seats aren't the most modern but plenty of space and very comfortable. Left on time and arrived 10 mins late. This is a late flight so they quickly serve dinner then close cabin down for the night.

Paris-Mauritius-Paris Economy on A340's. Poor service on both flights. Seats very uncomfortable they seem to tilt forward and have limited space. Food OK but drinks service appalling. 1 trolley service and 1 round of soft drinks for 11 hr flight! If you wanted more drinks you had to go to the galley at the back to help yourself where the flight attendants were sitting chatting/reading or putting on their makeup! If you are a Mauritian national though you are very well looked after personal food & drinks served and bottles of wine given to take home! Will never fly them again.

MRU-MEL-SYD - A340. Service on board was very good however a couple of announcements could have been made by staff prior to boarding in Mauritius warning Sydney passengers in transit that their duty free spirits purchased in Mauritius would be confiscated by security staff upon arrival at Melbourne airport. The onus is on the Airline to warn its passengers that only a limited amount of liquid would pass security requirements at the second check point. This problem occurs quite often and results in quite an unnecessary loss of revenue to passengers unaware of this legal requirement.

MRU-CDG. Business. One of the newest A340. Excellent service staff was very helpful and pleasant. If the seats would be at 180 that would be great. Keep on the good job.

Just travelled to and from Mauritius in business class. Service was excellent. Nothing too much trouble for Cabin Crew. Very good comprehensive menu. Comfortable seats. Able to sleep comfortably both outward and inward journey. In flight entertainment a little limited. Otherwise very good.

Johannesburg to Perth return. Service good seats comfortable. AVOD operated without any problems. The crew were friendly tasty food and wine is excellent. On our return schedules changed without notification however Air Mauritius covered all costs.
