BA London to Mauritius
Is it me or is this service in terminal decline.
Seem to recall first flying the route in 2000 as a Club passenger with overnight flights both ways. Could be wrong.
Since then the frequency of the service seems to have diminished and the schedule out and in has become a bit lame. 1pm ish outbound from Gatwick, 3 days a week, and 7.30am departure for the return ( now that's a charter airline time to get up to catch that one.) No Friday night outbound which is a downer.
No Virgin on the route ( which was good for a time) so it's Air Mauritius or Emirates stopping; have done the latter a few times but it's a schlepp.
Anyone know why the BA service is the way it is?

mainly a holiday destination and the sort of holiday where almost everyone takes a package of some sort - not say like the USA where people buy flights, hotels, cars etc separately
