Air Austral signs ACMI charter for Boeing 737‑800s with ASL Airlines France

Air Austral signed an ACMI charter contract with ASL Airlines France covering the period from 11 November 2026 to 27 March 2027.

A first 186‑seat Boeing 737‑800 will be deployed from 11 November 2026 and a second of the same capacity will join during the high‑season months of December and January; the arrangement allows Air Austral to maintain regional routes while transitioning from Airbus A220 to future Airbus A320neo, with cabin crew provided by Air Austral and technical crew supplied by ASL Airlines France.
