The Belgian company, Air Belgium operates a bi-weekly flight between Brussels and Plaisance since this Saturday, October 16th. Omarjee Aviation has been chosen as General Sales Agent (GSA) of Air Belgium.
So after some delays, Air Belgium flights to Mauritius, in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Africa, started this Friday, with a frequency of two flights per week (on Tuesdays in addition). These are night flights, both on the outward and return journeys, with virtually no time difference. Two innovations: the aircraft will be new Airbus A330 Neo jets and will operate from Brussels. The first aircraft was presented to the travel community on Tuesday and a second is expected in mid-November.
Niky Terzakis, CEO of Air Belgium, said that “Mauritius has closed its borders for eighteen months, which shows the seriousness of its attitude. In Mauritius, vaccinations have been maximized, as in our country. The government gives confidence and the best proof is that it has convinced our customers too: we are almost fully booked until the beginning of January.”
For Umarfarooq Omarjee, Executive Director of Omarjee Aviation: “We are very happy to represent Air Belgium as GSA in Mauritius. This is a great opportunity for us to maximize the business momentum, especially post-pandemic, we are fully committed to overseeing the sales, marketing and operations strategies nationwide with the aim of supporting a sustainable and stable trajectory in the travel and tourism industry in Mauritius, while ensuring that the airline’s business objectives are duly achieved. With the introduction of Air Belgium’s brand new A330neo on the new route between Brussels Airport and S.S.R. Mauritius International Airport, customers can expect a comfortable and unique travel experience”.
