Comair to suspend some services to Mauritius
Comair Limited, the company that operates the local and regional British Airways service has announced (25-Feb-09) its intention to suspend its Wednesday and Sunday flights to the island destination of Mauritius until further review. This suspension is effective from 01-May-09 and customers holding tickets for the affected flights will be rebooked and accommodated on alternative services.
The company’s Executive Manager: Sales & Route Development, Stuart Cochrane said, “We have assessed the current performance of these flights and believe that better opportunities currently exist to deploy the aircraft on other routes.”
Comair will continue to operate its scheduled Saturday flights and anticipates minimal disruption to customers affected by the withdrawal of these services.
