How Air Mauritius treats fishing equipment
With Air Mauritius, fishing equipment travels in the hold rather than as a long cabin item. Fishing is absent from the detailed sports categories, so customer service must confirm the category before purchase. — Air Mauritius.
The set may fall within the allowance or attract a route-based sports fee. The airline currently shows “0 €* / 75–150 €”. Your final total still depends on the ticket and the flight actually operated. — Air Mauritius.
Weight, length and dimensions to check
Air Mauritius publishes 23 kg / 32 kg for weight and “≤ 300 cm · ATR ≤ 180 cm” for size. Weigh the closed tube with foam, end caps and everything packed inside. — Air Mauritius.
Our 145 × Ø10 cm benchmark equals roughly 165 cm when length, width and height are added together. Do not confuse this total with a length-only limit. — Air Mauritius.
Declare the tube and navigate bag drop
Contact customer service before payment to confirm category, price and acceptance of the dimensions. At the airport, ask the carrier which desk and deadline apply to the approved special item. Keep a screenshot of the confirmation, particularly when your itinerary includes a connection. — Air Mauritius.
Protect the rods and separate accessories
The equipment must be properly packed as one set or in the pieces defined by the rule. Immobilise every rod section, keep guides away from the wall, and label the tube both outside and inside. — Air Mauritius.
Pack hooks, knives, pliers and tools securely in checked baggage. For an electric reel, lithium battery or CO₂ cartridge, separately check the dangerous-goods rules of both airline and airport. — Air Mauritius.
What the published rule does not establish
Air Mauritius does not publish a complete fishing category from which the applicable price and size can be determined unambiguously. We flag that gap instead of treating the tube as another sports category. — Air Mauritius.
On a codeshare, follow the rule of the carrier operating each segment. Ask for written confirmation when two airlines appear on the ticket. — Air Mauritius.
Fit for a 145 cm Rodborne tube
The reference dimensions fall within the published limit. Recheck weight, number of pieces and operating flight before ordering. — Air Mauritius.
