The conflict between the two carriers dates back to 2018, following the purchase by Air Madagascar in June 2012 of two Airbus A340 aircraft from Air France-KLM. The two companies have been fighting for three years over the amount claimed by the French flag for this transaction. At the heart of the dispute is the ownership of the aircraft and the conditions of their lease-purchase.
