How To Reach Mauritius From Chennai

The main airport of Mauritius is Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, located 48lm southeast of Port Louis. From the airport, Bus routes no 9, 10 and 198 are there that go via the airport which the passengers can avail. Or else there are cabs and airport shuttles to hire as well. But first one would need to land in Mauritius, and this is how one can cover the Chennai to Mauritius distance by air, land or sea.

By Air: There is one Chennai to Mauritius direct flight every week, served by Air Mauritius every Tuesday. The flight leaves Chennai International Airport at 7:40 am and reaches at 11:55 am at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, and keeping the time difference in in mind, it takes around 5 hours 45 minutes to reach. There are a couple of other connecting flights like Air Austral via Saint-Dennis or Emirates via Dubai. But the Chennai to Mauritius flight time is way too long, over 10 hours or so, and it is best not to go with those unless absolutely necessary. For more frequent flights, one can fly to Delhi or Mumbai as well, which have 2 and 5 flights per week to Mauritius respectively.

By Road/Rail: As it is amply clear from the Chennai to Mauritius route map, there can be no direct roadway or railway between the two places. There is the vast stretch of Indian Ocean from the Indian coast to Mauritius, and flights are the only option one has.

By Sea: There are exotic cruises in Mauritius once you reach there, but there is no transportation link between Chennai and Mauritius over the seaway.
