Air Mauritius is adding extra capacity to London for winter 2023, with a daily service that will operate in and out of Gatwick Airport.

The new schedule replaces the current five-day-a-week service into Heathrow.

The service will operate business and economy cabins, with daily operations starting from Sunday 29 October.

Flight MK042 will depart Mauritius at 23:05, arriving at Gatwick at 07:00 the following day. Flight MK053 will depart Gatwick at 15:55, arriving into Mauritius at 07:15.

CEO Krešimir Kučko said “We are confident that this new service will further strengthen our relationship with valued customers from the UK and the connecting markets.”
