Air Mauritius will move its operations from London Heathrow Airport (LHR) to London Gatwick Airport (LGW) with daily operations as from Sunday 29 October 2023. The national airline will boost its frequency from five weekly flights to a daily service to London Gatwick Airport using a mix of the latest generation aircraft, the Airbus A350-900 and A330-900neo in a Business and an Economy class configuration. 

Krešimir Kučko, CEO of Air Mauritius stated that, “London has always been a high-priority destination for us and as part of the commemoration of Air Mauritius’ 50 years of operations to the United Kingdom in November 2023, we are proud to announce daily operations to London Gatwick as from 29 October this year. This strategic move allows Air Mauritius to meet increasing demand on this historical route while using its most environmentally friendly types of aircraft. London Gatwick Airport is located south of Central London and is easily accessible, for example, the Gatwick Express train service links London Gatwick Airport to London Victoria Station in only 30 minutes. We are confident that this new service will further strengthen our relationship with valued customers from the UK and the connecting markets.”
