The corona crisis hit many airlines like a slap in the face. While most companies are gradually recovering from this shock, the future looks far from bright for Air Mauritius. The airline may be running out of breath, according to reports.

It was not until the end of April that the carrier placed itself under bankruptcy protection. At that time, saving the company from bankruptcy was still the top priority. Today one is far from that, how aerotelegraph.com reported. "The possibility of liquidation is becoming more and more visible," said the special administrator. Ironically, on the 50th anniversary, it could come to an end for the island nation's national airline.
