Based on where it is believed that the aircraft came down, and the combined drift / flow of the West Australian Current and the South Equatorial Current, Reunion Island is a reasonably likely place for something to wash up.

Will be interested to see if they can match this to the hull number.

Another depiction of ocean currents.
