Always in the strengthening and improving of the inter-island tours, the "Vanilla island" marketing concept wants to also develop its reputation to satisfy international demands for tourism.

A positive according to the outgoing President.
During the ceremony of passing of torch, the outgoing president of the Association, Ulrich Agarwal, Minister of tourism, Transport and the meteorology of Madagascar, has recalled that the actions of the "vanilla island" focused on the air connectivity. During this six-month term, "Vanilla island" created the association of the civil aviation in the Indian Ocean under the auspices of ICAO , the international civil aviation organization, to affirm its reputation internationally.
Always in this perspective, cooperation and new airlines have been established, including the opening of the line Antana¬narivo-Mahé and cooperation agreements between Madagascar and the Reunion Island on joint to China flights. Following that code-sharing between airlines, the creation of the "vanilla Alliance' was also announced for the defence of the common interests of the members of the association and the maintenance of the inter-island connectivity.
