Emirates Recognises its Top Mauritius Travel Agents

Emirates, the world’s largest international airline, has recognised its top travel agents in Mauritius during a special ceremony held at the airline’s office at the Newton Tower in Port-Louis on Friday 8th December. The event was also to mark its 15th year of operations between Dubai and Mauritius.

Blue Sky Travel Management and Atom Travel Services received the ‘Exceptional Sales Contribution Award’, while Silver Wings received the ‘Outstanding Sales Contribution Award’ for their continued support to the airline’s growth in Mauritius over the past 15 years.

The awards were handed to the agencies by Muhammed Riza, Emirates’ Regional Manager, Commercial Operations, Africa and Oomar Ramtoola, Emirates’ Manager for the Indian Ocean Islands.

“A lot has been achieved since we began operations to Mauritius. We started with three flights in September 2002, now we operate a double daily A380 service, which continues to grow in popularity in the Mauritian market.

This is a first in Africa and now, we connect Mauritius to more than 150 destinations around the world every day. This success is largely thanks to our travel industry trade partners. We recognise their support and contribution to our success”, said Oomar Ramtoola.

Flight EK701 departs from Dubai at 04:00 and arrives at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport at 10:40. The return flight, EK 702, departs from Mauritius at 16:55, landing at Dubai International Airport at 23:35.
