Madagascar Airlines is Madagascar’s national airline, linking Antananarivo with domestic destinations and regional Indian Ocean services. It emerged from the restructuring of Air Madagascar and Tsaradia, with the domestic operation unified under the MD code in 2024. Regional flying includes the Moroni service resumed in July 2026 via Mahajanga.
Choose your aircraft to explore the Madagascar Airlines seat maps listed below.
Choose during booking, through My Booking or with customer service. Online check-in opens 30 hours before departure and lets you select or change seats, subject to availability and possible fees. Use the reservation number and a passenger’s surname. Checked baggage still needs to be dropped at the airport counter.
Notify the airline at least 72 hours before departure through your booking, its assistance form or call centre. If you are completely unable to move without assistance and need WCHC service, travel with a companion who can assist you on board.
A guide dog accompanying a passenger with a visual impairment travels in the cabin free of charge. Notify the airline when booking and bring your disability card and the dog’s identification documents. A safety harness is mandatory.
For domestic travel on a Madagascar Airlines ticket, Economy/Leisure allows one checked bag up to 20 kg and one cabin bag up to 5 kg. Privilège allows one checked bag up to 30 kg and one cabin bag up to 10 kg. The checked bag’s dimensions must total no more than 158 cm. These domestic allowances differ from regional fares; for example, regional Ecolight includes an 8 kg cabin bag and no checked bag.
The airline’s FAQ directs passengers to pay for excess baggage at the airport counter. Acceptance depends on the aircraft’s available carrying capacity, so payment alone does not remove that limit.
The paid unaccompanied minor service accepts children aged 4–11; children under four cannot travel alone. Arrange it through an airline sales office, call centre or airport. An adult over 18 must book, a parent or legal guardian must sign the consent form and provide identification, and the guardian must remain at the airport until takeoff.
