Air Mauritius was incorporated in June 1967 and it started its operations modestly with a Piper-Navajo. The destiny of Air Mauritius is forged in the ambition of the people of Mauritius who, since accession to independence, refused the perspective of isolation.
Today, 40 years later, the national carrier of Mauritius flies direct to several European, Asian, African and Regional destinations – more than 25. The company is also proud of its young fleet which is composed of mainly Airbus aircraft – A340 - 300’s, A319-100’s, two new A340-300E and A330-200 as well.
Safety and security have always been at the heart of the company’s operations and the company has successfully been through the IATA Operational Safety Audit (IOSA). This IOSA Certificate is one of the pre-requisites for IATA membership and enables all carriers to have a common agreed standard for operational safety in the global air transport industry.
