To bridge the gap across the Indian Ocean from Mumbai to Mauritius, my wife Ashley and I flew Vistara A321neo business class.
This would become my second flight with the airline, as we’d flown the regional A320 business class product earlier in the trip.
I was particularly excited about this flight, as I’d heard great things about Vistara’s international business class, and I was keen to try it for myself.
Vistara A321neo Business Class – Booking
I booked this flight as part of a larger itinerary using Aeroplan points.
Originally, we were set to fly with Air Mauritius from Mumbai; however, our flight was cancelled, and we were rebooked on Vistara instead.

For this booking, we redeemed two Super Elite Priority Reward vouchers, which halved the total number of points required for our trip from around 466,000 points to just 233,000 points.
I was particularly pleased with the redemption, as we maxed out the highest distance band on the “Between North America and Atlantic zones” section of the Aeroplan Flight Reward Chart.
It’s worth noting that A321neo aircraft are currently being used for domestic flights, although this situation may change in the future.

After a quick trip to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport and a breezy check-in experience, we headed through security with plenty of time for a lounge visit.
Thanks to our business class tickets, we were granted access to the nicely appointed Adani Lounge Mumbai (Eastern Wing).
The lounge’s interiors stand out, with a contemporary atmosphere that includes a live wall. The lounge has ample seating, a spacious layout, and a dedicated bar area.
The range of buffet selections was also notable, especially when it comes to Indian…
