Ewa Air

Ewa Air is a French airline based in Mayotte, a French overseas territory in the Indian Ocean. The airline operates scheduled passenger services within the Comoros archipelago, Madagascar, Tanzania and Réunion. Its main base is Dzaoudzi–Pamandzi International Airport (DZA) in Mayotte.

Ewa Air was established in 2013 and commenced operations shortly thereafter. The airline is jointly owned by several entities, including the Conseil Départemental de Mayotte (the departmental council of Mayotte), Air Austral, and private investors. This ownership structure reflects the airline's role in providing crucial regional connectivity for Mayotte and its surrounding islands.

The airline's fleet typically comprises turboprop aircraft, well-suited for the short-haul routes and airfield infrastructure common in the region. Ewa Air plays a vital role in connecting communities and facilitating tourism and trade within the southwestern Indian Ocean.

The airline's name, "Ewa," is derived from the local language and translates roughly to "yes" or "affirmative," signifying a positive connection and service.
