What I’m Working On

Testing Air Mauritius’s award availability while discovering why Mauritius might be the perfect remote work destination. Currently documenting the CDG-MRU route (5,869 miles!) and finding the best redemption sweet spots for Indian Ocean hopping. Also: dodging aggressive monkeys at Black River Gorges.

Recent Flight Adventures

Fresh insights from my 2025 flights. Every route tested, every experience documented.

đŸ‡Ģ🇷 → 🇲đŸ‡ē Paris to Mauritius

March 28, 2025 â€ĸ Air France 470

Distance

5,869 mi

Flight Time

11h 28m

Direct route avoiding the Middle East hubs. Air France’s A350 offers solid business class redemptions using Flying Blue miles. Pro tip: Better availability than Delta for this route.

đŸ‡ē🇸 → đŸ‡ē🇸 Seattle to Los Angeles

Multiple 2025 Flights â€ĸ Delta Main

Frequency

2 flights

Avg Time

2h 45m

My most frequent 2025 route. Delta dominates with hourly service. Sweet spot for MQM earnings without the long haul. First Class often clears for Platinum.

🇷đŸ‡Ē → 🇲đŸ‡ē RÊunion to Mauritius

April 5, 2025 â€ĸ Air Mauritius 229

Distance

144 mi

Flight Time

51 min

Shortest flight of 2025! This Indian Ocean hop is perfect for island combinations. Air Mauritius offers reasonable cash fares; points redemptions rarely worth it here.
