Lining up on runway 14 of it's home base for another flight to Bangkok, this 1997 built airframe served with Air Mauritius all it's life. Stored in October 2020 due to the Corona pandemic, then flown to Twenthe in July 2021 and finally broken up there during 2022. Even though designed for longhaul flights, Air Mauritius regulary used it's A340's to serve regional destinations like the neighboring islands of Madagascar and La Reunion as well.
