Air Austral to Launch New Sydney Schedule and Fares

Air Austral, the international airline of the Indian Ocean island of Reunion, will soon launch a new schedule on its Reunion – Sydney route, and has introduced a range of special fares from Australia to Reunion and Mauritius.

From 24 March until 9 May 2012, the airline will operate one return service per week, after which it will increase to two flights.

To build awareness of the rescheduled services, Air Austral has introduced “Duo Fares”, offering competitive prices for two people to travel together to Reunion and Mauritius.

Seats are limited at these prices, and to be eligible, two passengers must be travelling together in the same booking. Other terms and conditions apply.

Under the new schedule, Air Austral flight UU 951 initially will depart Reunion every Sunday, arriving in Sydney on Monday at 07:05. The return flight, UU 952, will depart Sydney every Tuesday at 13:15, arriving in Reunion at 18:30.

This will connect with onward services to six destinations in France – Paris, Bordeaux, Nantes, Marseilles Provence, Lyon and Toulouse.

From 9 May, when the second flight is added, UU951 will depart Reunion every Thursday and Sunday, and fly from Sydney on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

All flights will be operated with Boeing 777 200LR aircraft, seating 316 passengers in Economy class, 32 in Premium Economy 14 in Business Class.
