I don't know if the MacBook Air is a special charger, but the MacBook and
MacBook Pro chargers are compatible in that you can run a MacBook on a
MacBook Pro charger. A MacBook Pro uses more power than a regular MacBook,
so a MacBook Pro on a MacBook charger probably would not charge the battery
when running.
If the output voltage is the same on both chargers, there shouldn't be a
problem.
