Mate i am heading there in a couple of weeks and air Mauritius gave me 30kg luggage but charged an additional $30.00 au for my surf board. i am thinking they will be the same.

Michel, thats the flight Im on as well

It does have a link on the Air Austral website for prices per kg over the limit.

By memory it was around 6-10 euros per kg

Ive got my gear under 25kg and still have my carry on luggage for clothes.

Flew over here a couple of weeks ago with Air Austral.

Melb - Sydney was with virgin, but booked with Air Austral. Virgin had to follow Air Austral's baggage policy re golf clubs.

Make sure your "Golf bag" looks like a golf bag and dose not weigh over 30kgs. You will get charged excess over 25kgs for your golf stuff.

I tried a few times to call them and confirm, best they could suggest was printing the baggage policy page from Air Austral.

Soooooo glad I did!!!

Used it every time, Virgin Melb - Syd Air Austral Syd - Reunion, Reunion - Mauritius.

My luggage overall was way over weight, got slugged, but very glad I printed that page!

Also have on you the name of the place you are staying and the contact phone number there for Mauritius customs.

Safe travels ;)

See ya soon Michel!!!!!
