Air Niugini to purchase jet aircraft to serve Port Moresby - Vanuatu route

Papua New Guinea's National Flag Carrier Air Niugini is purchasing another jet aircraft, a FOKKER 70, to boost its current jet fleet.
The second FOKKER 70 will service the new route to Vanuatu straight out of Port Moresby daily, unlike the current arrangement which is via Honiara in Solomon Islands, on a weekly basis.
The current route is service by Fokker 100. The new Fokker 70 should be available by next month. Fokker 70 had a wider and longer range than FOKKER 100, thus it can travel longer distance unlike F100.
General Manager Commercial Domnic Kaumu said  that Air Niugini's new route is aiming at linking up all Melanesia Spearheard Group of Countries through the Airline Industry.
Mr Kaumu was speaking during the Air Niugini's maiden commercial flight to Vanuatu last week.
