Plaisance Airport, also known as Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport, is the main international airport in Mauritius. It is located in the district of Plaine Magnien, approximately 26 kilometers southeast of the capital city Port Louis.
Taxis are available at the airport for those who prefer a convenient and hassle-free mode of transportation. The taxi stand is located just outside the terminal building. The fare is metered and the rate is fixed by the airport authorities. It takes approximately 45 minutes to reach Port Louis from the airport by taxi.
For budget travelers, taking the bus is a good option. The bus stop is located a short walk from the airport terminal, and buses operate on a frequent schedule. The fare is considerably cheaper than a taxi, but the journey may take longer due to multiple stops along the route.
If you prefer to have your own mode of transportation, renting a car is a convenient option. There are several car rental agencies located at the airport, making it easy to pick up and drop off your rental vehicle. This option is recommended for those who plan to explore the island during their stay.
There are three parking lots available at Plaisance Airport - P1, P2, and P3. P1 is the closest to the terminal building and is recommended for short-term parking. P2 is a covered parking lot and is ideal for long-term parking. P3 is an open-air parking lot and offers the most affordable rates. All parking lots are equipped with CCTV cameras for added security.
If you plan to rent a vehicle upon arrival at Plaisance Airport, it is recommended to book your rental car in advance. This ensures availability and often comes with better rates. Most car rental agencies at the airport offer a wide range of vehicles to choose from, including sedans, SUVs, and even luxury cars.
Make sure to bring all necessary documents, including your driver's license, credit card, and reservation confirmation, when picking up your rental car. It is also important to inspect the vehicle for any damages before driving off.
For those who are not familiar with driving in Mauritius, it is recommended to opt for a GPS rental or download a navigation app on your phone for easier navigation.
With these options, getting to and from Plaisance Airport is convenient and hassle-free. Whether you prefer a taxi, bus, or rental car, you can easily reach your destination in and around Mauritius. Happy travels!
