SAA launches direct Cape Town–Mauritius flights ahead of festive season
South African Airways (SAA) will launch it's new direct route between Cape Town and Mauritius from Tuesday, 9 December 2025 - and not November as previously reported - enhancing regional connectivity for travellers in the Western Cape.
Flights will operate three times a week - on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays - the outbound flight departs Cape Town at 09:25 AM, arriving in Mauritius at 4:30 PM, with a total flight duration of approximately five hours. The return leg departs Mauritius at 5:20 PM, arriving back in Cape Town at 9:30 PM.
Air Mauritius already offers a direct service from Cape Town, and increased competition should impact flight prices positively.
SAA CEO Professor John Lamola says the route supports broader tourism goals for both countries, while CCO Tebogo Tsimane highlights the schedule’s alignment with peak travel periods.
Bookings are now open via flysaa.com or accredited travel agents.
