Emirates is ramping up its presence in Mauritius by adding a third daily flight to the island nation, seeking to buttress its position as the country considers opening up to other carriers.
Starting in December, the peak of the holiday season travel, the world’s largest airline will offer another service to the Indian Ocean hotspot using a Boeing Co. 777 twin-aisle jetliner, the carrier said. That’s on top of two daily flights between Dubai and Mauritius now with the giant Airbus SE A380 double deckers.
