Why is it masculine?
Vols is masculine in French. It derives from Latin "volus" (related to "volare," to fly), and when adopted into Old French, it was assimilated into the masculine gender. The -ol ending in Old French typically resulted in masculine nouns. However, "vol" has two distinct meanings: "flight" (from Latin "volatus") and "theft" (from Latin "furtum" via a different etymological path). Both meanings are masculine nouns in modern French.
