The aircraft has recently been tracked plying flights between Antananarivo and Paris CDG, a route that was previously serviced by its other A340-300.

That aircraft was transferred to the AOC of Air Atlanta Icelandic  in early 2013 with Air Madagascar subsequently wet-leasing it back. The move allowed the carrier to continue serving the bloc by virtue of Air Atlanta Icelandic's European AOC.
