How to travel around Réunion by air

What to expect when flying between cities or connecting after an international arrival.

Flying between cities in Réunion

  • Check domestic flight details before booking
    This page does not currently list a verified, publicly bookable domestic passenger timetable. That reflects the information verified for this page; it does not confirm that private, charter, humanitarian, sightseeing or other special flights are unavailable. Before booking, confirm the airport pair, operating date, passenger eligibility and ticket availability with the operator.

Arriving from another country

  • Use RUN Airport’s official platform for property lost on its premises
    Roland Garros Airport directs reports of items lost on its premises to its Objets Trouvés platform. Provide truthful item and location details after arrival rather than treating the platform as an airline checked-baggage claim or confirmation of recovery.

Réunion flight and airport FAQs

Can RUN continuous check-in be used for any airline or travel date?

Do not assume so. Air Austral scopes the service to its same-day flights, with service hours and flight cutoffs still to be checked.
