JULY 8 2022
Air Niugini wishes to advise the travelling public that effective from August 6, 2022, the airline will resume direct services to Honiara, Solomon Islands, and Nadi, Fiji.
The resumption of services has been made possible by the relaxing of border restrictions in the two countries, and flights will initially operate once a week in each direction.
Air Niugini Chief Executive Officer(CEO), Mr Bruce Alabaster said: “Air Niugini is delighted to be able to resume flights to the Solomon Islands and Fiji following their suspension over two years ago at the start of pandemic when borders were closed.
“We are confident that the resumption of these flights will boost trade, investment, and people movement between the three Melanesian countries.”
The flights are scheduled to provide convenient connections in Nadi to and from Suva, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
In Port Moresby these flights will allow convenient connections to and from Singapore, whilst in Honiara they will connect conveniently with Solomon Airlines domestic services around Solomon Islands.
