Per the above article, the first two A350, leased from AerCap, would be delivered next year as scheduled (I suppose it is too late to defer them). The following deliveries would be postponed.

a380.boards.net/post/108169/thread Air Mairitius a330neo deployment plans: www.ch-aviation.com/portal/news/64499-air-mauritius-outlines-early-a330neo-deployment-plans"Air Mauritius (MK, Mauritius) has outlined its early A330-900 deployment plans ahead of the delivery of two aircraft of the type from Airbus (AIB, Toulouse Blagnac) in September and October of this year. The two jets, on lease from Air Lease Corporation, will replace two A340-300s whose leases will expire in November and December 2018. According to ch-aviation analysis of schedule data, the Indian Ocean carrier intends to deploy its A330neo into service from November 1 on flights to each of St. Denis de la Réunion (2x weekly), Antananarivo (1x weekly), Geneva (1x weekly), Delhi Int'l (1x weekly), Hong Kong Chek Lap Kok (1x weekly), and Shanghai Pudong (1x weekly). The type will also run a 2x weekly service to Johannesburg O.R. Tambo from December 14 alongside a weekly service to Perth Int'l. Powered by Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 motors, the A330neo will be configured with 291 seats with 28 in Business Class and 263 in Economy Class. As part of its fleet renewal and growth plans, Air Mauritius is replacing its A340-300 fleet with A330neo as well as with six A350-900s of which two have already delivered on lease from AerCap. A further two are due in 2019 while the remaining pair is now expected in 2023."

One of 2 a350-900 planned deliveries at the end of 2019 will be delayed (probably msn 365): www.ch-aviation.com/portal/news/78339-air-mauritius-secures-a330neo-compensation-from-airbusfull text: "Air Mauritius (MK, Mauritius) and Airbus have reportedly agreed on compensation of USD2 million for the late delivery of two A330-900neo, the first of which, 3B-NBU (msn 1884), arrived in the island nation on April 18 after a six-month delay, L'Express Maurice has reported. The third operator of the type worldwide, the Mauritian national carrier will be leasing the two units from Air Lease Corporation. Most recently, it had been expecting the already-delayed second A330neo, 3B-NBV (msn 1890), to arrive later in April but it has yet to be delivered. The delays in the delivery of the two aircraft have forced the carrier to extend the operation of two of three remaining A340-300s that were supposed to be retired in November and December last year, resulting in schedule delays and damage to reputation, the airline argued. "Contrary to what some people want to believe, the delay in delivery of the A330neo was never caused by a financial problem. Everything was related to the manufacturing," Air Mauritius said, according to L'Express. The A330neo is part of a wider fleet renewal for the Indian Ocean-based carrier. According to its third-quarter accounts to December 31, 2018, it will phase in two A350-900s in October/November this year, then two more aircraft of the same type by 2024. However, in March airline sources confirmed it was in talks with Airbus to defer the delivery of one of the two A350s due to arrive in 2019, but that it would definitely take delivery of the two A330-900s."
