To ensure the safety of all staff and passengers travelling to and from Mauritius, the SSR International Airport has introduced a series of sanitary protocols.

SSR International Airport is the first airport in Africa to receive the Airport Health Accreditation from the Airports Council International (ACI).

The Airport Health Accreditation programme recognizes the commitment to health and welfare of passengers, airport staff and the public, by assessing airports’ sanitary protocols to combat the spread of the coronavirus against the ICAO Council Aviation Restart Task Force recommendations.
