Air India & Air Mauritius Expand Codeshare To 17 Routes Across India, Africa & Indian Ocean
Last Updated:
Air India will add its 'AI' code to Air Mauritius flights going to Cape Town, Johannesburg (South Africa), and Antananarivo (Madagascar).
Air India and Air Mauritius have announced a major expansion of their existing codeshare agreement, making travel between India, Mauritius, Réunion, South Africa, and Madagascar easier than ever.
The move was officially signed during the 81st IATA Annual General Meeting in New Delhi, with top leaders from both airlines present, including Air India's CEO Campbell Wilson and Air Mauritius Chairman Kishore Beegoo.
What's New in the Deal?
A total of 17 routes will now fall under the expanded codeshare.
This means more flight options and greater connectivity across the Indian Subcontinent and Southern Africa.
Under the agreement:
Air India will place its 'AI' flight code on Air Mauritius services to Cape Town, Johannesburg (South Africa), and Antananarivo (Madagascar) via Mauritius.
It already shares codes with Air Mauritius on flights between Mauritius and Mumbai, Delhi, and Reunion.
Meanwhile:
Air Mauritius will place its 'MK' flight code on Air India services across several Indian cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, and Goa.
For the first time, it will also codeshare on Air India's direct flights between Mauritius and Mumbai.
This means passengers of either airline can book flights operated by the other, making travel smoother with single-ticket booking and checked-through luggage.
Campbell Wilson of Air India said,"This expanded codeshare partnership with Air Mauritius is another step toward widening our extended global network, which enables our customers to easily access these destinations."
Kishore Beegoo of Air Mauritius added,"Air Mauritius is pleased to expand its collaboration with Air India, offering our passengers connections to numerous destinations across India via Mumbai, Delhi, and Chennai."
When Can You Book?
The new codeshare flights are available for booking from 1st July 2025. Travellers can book via:

BJP netas woo industrywith promise of strong eco
Ludhiana: Senior BJP leaders are busy holding indoor meetings with the business fraternity to solicit votes for party candidate Jiwan Gupta. Late Friday, BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh and former Gujarat CM Vijay Rupani, along with several other leaders, met industrialists. Most of the industrialists reside in the West constituency, and almost all the parties are reaching out to them. The BJP delegation led by the party's district chief, Rajnesh Dhiman, called on Omkar Singh Pahwa and sought his support for Gupta. Tarun Chugh and Vijay Rupani were also part of the delegation. Addressing the industrialists, Rupani informed them about PM Narendra Modi's policies for the industry. He said India had become the fourth largest economy in the world, surpassing Japan. He added that the Indian Rupee was doing well in the global market, showing strength against the US dollar. Rupani said in the next few years, the Indian economy could become the third largest in the world, surpassing Germany. BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh said BJP could save Punjab's industry, which was forced to shift to other states due to lack of security and anti-industry policies. He urged the industrialists to vote for the BJP if they wanted to save the industry of Punjab. Onkar Singh Pahwa promised support for BJP candidate Jiwan Gupta on behalf of the cycle industry. Several other meetings were held with representatives of the hosiery and dyeing industry.

Lammy's visit makes him the most senior Western official to travel to both New Delhi and Islamabad since the South Asian rivals agreed to a ceasefire on May 10, ending their most intense period of conflict in nearly 30 years. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Thank you Prime Minister @narendramodi for your warm welcome to India. Building on the free trade agreement between our great countries, we will continue working together to deepen our partnership, celebrate our unique living bridge, and deliver growth and security. — David Lammy (@DavidLammy) June 7, 2025 Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi stressed the need for decisive international action against terrorism and those supporting it in a meeting with Lammy. The Prime Minister's Office said Lammy strongly condemned the Pahalgam terror attack. PM Modi expressed satisfaction at the successful conclusion of the India-UK Free Trade Agreement and Double Contribution Convention and appreciated the constructive engagement by both sides that led to this milestone. Pleased to meet UK Foreign Secretary Mr. David Lammy. Appreciate his substantive contribution to the remarkable progress in our Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, further strengthened by the recently concluded FTA.

He welcomed the continued collaboration under the Technology Security Initiative and noted its potential to shape trusted and secure innovation ecosystems. Tensions had surged in April after 26 people were killed in India's Kashmir, an incident India blamed on Pakistan-backed militants, which Islamabad denied. In response, India launched strikes on what it described as terrorist infrastructure inside Pakistan, prompting retaliatory moves and escalation until both countries agreed to halt hostilities. 'We want the situation to be maintained, but of course we recognise fragility, particularly in the backdrop of terrorism, terrorism designed to destabilise India,' Lammy said in an interview at the residence of the British High Commissioner in New Delhi. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'We are keen to continue to work with our Indian partners on counter-terrorism measures.' He said he discussed the next steps with both Modi and Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar, but gave no specifics. Last year, India and Britain discussed combating the financing of terrorism, cooperation between law enforcement and judicial bodies and information sharing. Lammy said he also discussed boosting trade between the world's fifth and sixth largest economies. The countries concluded talks for a free trade deal early last month. 'I know that Prime Minister Keir Starmer is very much looking forward to coming to India very soon to sign the free trade agreement,' Lammy said. 'There is so much that our two nations can continue to do together.' With inputs from agencies
