Saudi Airlines in Mauritius

The sky of Mauritius is open to Saudi Airlines as from Thursday 14 September 2017. The plane arrived from Jeddah on Thursday at 4 p.m with 200 passengers on board including a dozen of tour operators and around 20 media people.

Passengers and tour operators and press were welcomed by officers of the MTPA, who are organising a roadshow in Saudi Arabia in November this year. On the other hand, Mauritius and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will further enhance the existing bilateral relations and tap various avenues of cooperation in different economic spheres such as trade, investment and tourism, among others.

The newly appointed Ambassador with residence in Pretoria presented his credential letter to the President of the Republic on Tuesday 12 September.  Diplomatic relations between Mauritius and Saudi Arabia were established in August 1978.
