H is never considered as a vowel in french

, it's the same as english (a,e,i,o,u and in some cases y)

I said it wrong. I mean it pertains the same to the english, I think vowel sound is the correct term I was looking for. Like L'hotel for example.

From what I gather, you use "an" in front of abbreviations that sound like vowels.
