Airport Information

Hamburg Airport is the 5th busiest airport in Germany. It is also among one of the airports with the most modern architecture. But; because the airport is very close to the city center, night flights are not carried out due to the noise of the aircrafts disturbing the public. For this reason, landings that are past 12 at night are redirected to Hannover Airport. It is recommended to consider this when planning your flights, as you could find yourself at Hannover Airport.

Apart from that, you can benefit from the many amenities available at the airport. From duty free shops to coffee lounges, from restaurants to many famous branded shops, are some of the options among the amenities to choose from. You can spend your time here and you can have a pleasant time.

It’s possible to reach many points in Mauritius directly if you have your own means of transportation.  You can take the A10 once you’ve left the terminal to reach Mahebourg that is 6km away from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport, or you can reach the capital, Port Louis in around one hour by taking the M2. It’s around 40km away so getting here from the airport takes a little longer. There are alternatives offered to reach the city such as taxis, car rental and buses.

Taxi

There’s a taxi information desk at the airport where you can inquire about getting to Port Louis or elsewhere. The taxi ride to Port Louis takes around 45 minutes and it’s a quick alternative when compared with buses. It’s strongly advised that you decide on the price of the journey before you get in the taxi and haggle a little if it’s necessary. If you do this then the comfortable and quick journey won’t impact on your budget as much.

Bus

There are buses from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport that go all the way to Port Louis city centre. This usually takes around 1 hour. The buses leave every 30-60 minutes. Taking the bus from the airport is inexpensive compared with taking a taxi, especially during the day. Another disadvantage, besides the longer time, is that you might have to wait for up to an hour for a bus, compared to the comfort of getting on a taxi as soon as you land and being on your way. You can buy a ticket from the bus driver with the local currency. If you only have dollars or euros then it’s also possible to use these currencies for the payment. It might be more difficult to transport your luggage with the bus but on the other hand it's a fifth of the cost of taking a taxi. So if you’re travelling by yourself, or on a budget, then this option is the clear winner.

In order to pick up your car without any problems you should have internationally acceptable travel and driving license documents with you when you go to a car rental agency. The whole process might be easier if you make a reservation online or over the phone before you arrival.
