Air Austral has staged a remarkable u-turn and will retain its Sydney services.
The French carrier announced in December that it was withdrawing its Reunion-Sydney-Noumea services with the last flight due to depart Sydney on March 20.
It blamed the economic climate and rising fuel costs for the decision.
But its board has now decided to retain the flights with confirmation expected today.
Air Austral began flying to Australia in 2009 but has seen poor load factors.
