Air Austral, Air Madagascar a EWA z Mayotte sú teraz súčasťou tej istej skupiny a potvrdili, že sú ochotní prehodnotiť konektivitu medzi ostrovmi Inter Island. Toto prichádza v správnom čase, keď Afrika tiež prehodnocuje Brand Africa a prepisuje svoj vlastný príbeh. Vzdušné pripojenie je dôležitou súčasťou tohto príbehu. Reunion je Francúzsko a Európska únia v Indickom oceáne a môže sa stať mostom medzi Afrikou a Áziou s Európou.
ČO SI Z TOHTO ČLÁNKU ODniesť:
- Francois Mandroux was in Seychelles with a Reunion Delegation to impress on the Seychelles Government and island’s Private Sector Trade on the importance for Seychelles to be present alongside the other Indian Ocean Vanilla islands of Mauritius, Madagascar, Comoros and Mayotte as well as coastal states from the African mainland such as South Africa and Mozambique to name but a few and countries from the Asian block.
- The Seychelles private sector trade was represented by Iouana Pillay, the SG of the SCCI (Seychelles Chamber of Commerce and Industries) and Madame Pillay has echoed her support for the November meeting in Reunion which will see ten Seychellois Companies and the local press invited through the SCCI to join Regional partners at the International Meeting in Reunion.
- The challenge that remains is still a largely inadequate air and sea connectivity schedule that could enhance trade and tourism between the islands and the region as a whole.
