A dance move, usually thought of in the context of swing, in which one partner leaves the ground and the other partner has most of the control over where the airborne person is going. Airiels are damned fun to do, especially if you're the female, 'cause there ain't no way my 105-lb self is tossing a 150-lb male into the air. Airels also require a certain amount of trust between the two people. They look cool, too.
