Emirates to bring new A350 to Mauritius

Emirates will bring its new Airbus A350 aircraft featuring its signature Premium Economy cabins to Mauritius on November 1.

From Dubai, Emirates will operate the A350 on the daily Dubai-Mauritius flights EK709/EK710. It will replace the Boeing 777 currently used on the flights. The two other Emirates flights on the route are operated using the flagship A380 superjumbo aircraft.

“The arrival of the A350 marks another important step in Emirates’ continued investment in Mauritius,” said Oomar Ramtoola, Emirates’ Manager for the Indian Ocean Islands. “Our latest-generation A350 will introduce our new Business Class experience to the route, alongside Premium Economy, which is available on a growing list of routes in our network, in addition to a range of new onboard technologies.”

“We are pleased to offer our customers even greater choice and comfort when travelling between Mauritius and Dubai, and onwards across our global network. Together with our two daily A380 services, the deployment of the A350 demonstrates the importance of Mauritius within our network and our commitment to continuously enhancing the travel experience for our customers."

The A350 that will be used on the route will feature 298 seats in a three-class configuration, including 32 Business, 28 Premium Economy, and 238 seats in Economy.
