Air Antilles has been forced to halt all flights after the French Civil Aviation Authority suspended the airline’s operating license at midnight on December 8. The suspension follows a recent audit that found the airline’s flight organization and safety procedures did not meet required standards.

The grounding is expected to last at least until December 16, though Air Antilles has described the situation as an “administrative suspension” with no confirmed end date. The airline’s website has stopped accepting reservations, and passengers with existing tickets are being rebooked on other carriers as quickly as possible.

This development adds to the airline’s ongoing operational struggles and creates disruptions across regional travel routes.
