A buoyancy system for an aircraft, the buoyancy system being provided with at least two floats, said buoyancy system including a connection device for each float, each connection device attaching each float to a structure of an aircraft. Each connection device includes at least one stretchable connection and at least one non-stretch connection that are fastened to the float and that are suitable for being fastened to said structure, each non-stretch connection being folded while the float is against the fuselage so as to enable it to be lengthened, each non-stretch connection limiting the amplitude of the movement of the float under the effect of buoyancy thrust, and each stretchable connection exerting a return force on the float.
