Air Austral: Best Airline Financial Management Team Indian Ocean 2019

With a focus on the future and an emphasis on quality service, Air Austral is amplifying its destination network and updating its fleet to provide passengers with the best possible travel experience. Air Austral is headquartered in the French overseas department of Reunion, an island off the coast of Madagascar. It connects Reunion to Europe with daily direct flights to Paris and weekly ones to Marseilles. The airline also offers direct flights to destinations in Asia (Thailand, India, and China) and the Indian Ocean (South Africa, Madagascar, the Comoros, Mauritius, Mayotte, and the Seychelles). More than 100 additional destinations are covered through codeshare partnerships and aviation alliances. Through freshly forged strategic partnerships, Air Austral has opened the gate to the African continent with new codeshare flights to Kenya from Reunion and Madagascar. The company has signed a Privileged Partnership Agreement for enhanced shared flight scheduling and technical training. Air Austral benefits from a financial management team capable of steering the company to sustainable profit. The CFI.co judging panel believes the airline’s fiscal responsibility will carry it to new heights, and presents Air Austral with the 2019 award for Best Airline Financial Management Team (Indian Ocean).
