Emirates Adds Additional Weekly Flights to Mauritius

Travelling from the UAE to Mauritius will now be somewhat easier with the announcement that Emirates Airline is adding two more weekly flights to its schedule. The first of the two flights begins November 4 while the second follows a little more than a month later on December 6. With the addition of the two flights Emirates will now be servicing Mauritius 11 times per week. The increased schedule is expected to boost current capacity by about 22% weekly.

The increase comes at a time when many are sceptical of the international tourist trade. Where many tourist destinations are working hard just to stay afloat, Mauritius and Dubai have had an ongoing relationship of mutual benefit for quite some time. In fact, the Mauritian government made it known a couple of months ago it was working with airlines from other countries to help fill in the service gaps left by Air Mauritius. Apparently, the deal with Emirates Airline is part of that ongoing relationship.

For Europeans headed to a Mauritian holiday, the addition of the Dubai flights provides an extra bonus. Mauritius twin centre holidays (Dubai makes a great stop over when going to Mauritius) will now be a bit more inviting with the opportunity for more flight options. And as Europeans are given more options, they are more likely to utilize whatever can give them of the most value for their money. Several nights in Dubai before heading off to Mauritius is just one of those options.

Both Dubai and Mauritius are popular holiday destinations for both Brits and the French. They offer warm and sunny weather, plenty of natural beauty to explore, cultural and historical sites, and the ability to simply relax and unwind in a resort environment. And both destinations are well-versed in adorning guests with the ultimate luxury holiday experience. For example, imagine playing golf in Dubai on Monday, then again on Mauritius on Tuesday. Being able to experience both on the same holiday trip is certainly a trip never to be forgotten.

From the Mauritian perspective specifically, the additional flights from Dubai is a big help. While Air Mauritius provides a significant service for travellers coming to and from the island, it can't be denied that there are real gaps in their service. The airline needs help from outsiders in order to make the best use of the nation's airport and available flight schedules. Thankfully, Mauritian officials have negotiated with two other airlines for increased flights in the future.

If you've not yet begun to plan your fall holidays for 2011, or you're thinking about starting to plan for 2012, you should consider a twin centre holiday to Dubai and Mauritius. All inclusive packages are available to offer you the best possible deals and most welcoming accommodations. And now with increased flights between the two destinations, you have greater flexibility than ever before.

Mauritius Holidays Direct, the luxury holiday company based in the UK, is has great deals on Mauritius twin centre holidays featuring a stopover in Dubai, Seychelles and South Africa.
