From March 26, Vistara will offer direct flights between Mumbai and Mauritius.
CEO of Vistara, Vinod Kannan, said: “We are delighted to announce the addition of Mauritius, the scenic island country, to our constantly expanding global network. Besides being a popular tourist destination, the Republic of Mauritius is an important business hub and home to many global financial institutions. Given the strong cultural ties, trade and bilateral relations between India and Mauritius, this new route will further aid the growing traffic between the two countries.”
The airline will offer five weekly flights between the two destinations using a long-range A321, reports Dev Discourse.
Vistara recently became the first Indian airline to induct the A321LR into its fleet. It has 188 seats in a three-class configuration: 12 lie-flat seats in business class, 24 seats in premium economy, and 152 in economy class.
According to the airline’s website, the proposed schedule, which is still subject to regulatory approval, is as follows:
Round-trip all-inclusive fares for the Mumbai-Mauritius-Mumbai route will start at INR49 999 (R10 903), while round-trip all-inclusive fares for the Mauritius-Mumbai-Mauritius route will start at MUR28 999 (R11 412).
Bookings for the flights are being progressively opened on all Vistara’s channels, including the website, mobile application, and through travel agents, according to the Travel Trade Journal.
