AN agreement signed between Mauritius and Singapore Changi Airport will facilitate the development of both cargo and passenger traffic between Singapore and Mauritius as well as between Africa/Indian Ocean countries and Asia/South East Asia, using Mauritius and Singapore as hubs.
In reply to a parliamentary question the Prime Minister of Mauritius, Sir Anerood Jugnauth, said that this "Air Corridor" offers an exceptional opportunity for growth for Air Mauritius as it taps into the tremendous potential of traffic between Asia/South East Asia and Africa.
