Tourism Update's sister publication Travel News started to receive information that all today’s  BA Comair and kulula flights appeared to have been cancelled when a plane-load of Mauritius-bound  BA Comair passengers was offloaded earlier today,

Just before 11h00, BA Comair issued a statement saying:

“Comair regrets that our flights have been suspended by the CAA for 24 hours. This will affect both British Airways (operated by Comair) as well as kulula.com.

Our Executive Team are engaging with the CAA on an urgent basis. Comair believe there is no justification for the suspension.

All passengers booked for Saturday March 12, 2022 are advised not to travel to the airport, or to try and book alternate flights.

Comair deeply regrets the inconvenience caused and we are doing our utmost to restore our operations.

All updates will be posted on Social Media channels as they become available.”
