Air Mauritius bookings unavailable for LON-MRU but ‘flights confirmed’

[Kyneburgha]

AM are showing unavailable to book for LON-MRU Tuesdays & Fridays and inbound Weds & Sats from 6 may to at least end Nov 2025. Schedule shows daily flights. My current booking for Tues 11 Nov is ‘confirmed’ yet not accepting new booking. Best avoid ATM IMHO as going through financial difficulties and change of management.

@Misty might want to take note!

This came to my notice on 25 march as wanted to add another passenger so not a few hours ‘blip’

Hi to you both

I think this explains why there is the massive thread on TripAdvisor about Air Mauritius, that I haven’t managed to read yet. I was looking at TUI packages and they were all with Air Mauritius, so I guess if they go under it will result in a bit of a mess for those already booked.

I have no idea what will ultimately happen to Air Mauritius (albeit they have taken some steps to stabilise their financial situation) but in recent times an awful lot of national carriers either have been teetering on the edge of bankruptcy or actually been in bankruptcy (and not all entirely covid related) while continuing to fly – in Europe Al(ITA)lia and SAS, further afield LATAM, Aeromexico, Thai, Malaysian etc.
