When this route gets cheap.
Fares on this route stay within about $71 across the 4 months we track — season matters less here than timing the drop. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes 2 stops and takes about 18.5 hours outbound, on a 48-night trip — ticketed under Spring Airlines, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $1,107 for 8,896 km each way, that works out to about $62 per 1,000 km flown. That is above the $44 per 1,000 km typical of long-haul fares here. Across the 28 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Mauritius, this fare ranks 22nd — 1.8× the $611 we hold from Berlin. For context, the middle fare among the 41 routes of similar length we watch out of Shanghai is $789. The best time to be in Mauritius: May–Dec.

Good to know
SHA → MRU, answered.
Is $1,107 a good price for Shanghai to Mauritius?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $1,115 round-trip and this fare is 1% under it. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Shanghai to Mauritius?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Dec comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Mauritius are May–Dec — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book SHA → Mauritius?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Dec comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Shanghai to Mauritius?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Spring Airlines. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
