Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, Mauritius
The Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport is situated in Plaine Magnien, Mauritius, about 48 kilometers southeast of the capital Port Louis. It is the main international airport in the island nation, offering direct flights to several destinations in Africa, Europe, and Asia.
The airport is managed by Airports of Mauritius Co. Ltd (AML), with the government of Mauritius being the majority shareholder of AML. Formerly known as the Plaine Corail Airport, Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport was built in the early 1940s by British colonialists to assist in the importation and exportation of goods to and from the United Kingdom.
Over the years, the airport has undergone major improvements, including the construction of a new passenger terminal in 2013. The new terminal, which takes the shape of the Traveller’s Palm”, has a capacity of 4 million passengers. The old terminals are also being upgraded. Sir Seewoosagul Ramgoolam is regarded as the most iconic airport in Africa.
