LINK PNG to operate Kieta flights

Air Niugini wishes to advise the traveling public that effective Saturday 20 May, flights to Kieta will be operated by Link PNG Dash-8 aircraft until further notice. The Dash-8 service will operate once weekly on Saturdays, calling into Tokua airport, Rabaul for refueling.

Air Niugini will re-introduce upgraded services to Kieta, using its new fleet of Fokker 70 jet aircraft, as soon as the necessary runway approach path lighting has been installed by the airport operator. This is a regulatory requirement before jet operations can commence.
Air Niugini regrets any inconvenience caused, and looks forward to introducing its direct Fokker 70 jet services to Kieta soon.
