In line with PNG's Air Niugini’s Domestic Service Excellence program, and to provide more seats in preparation for the busy festive/Christmas period, the national airline has increased flight frequencies around the domestic network.
Air Niugini now has more flights to Goroka, Lae, Madang, Wewak, Vanimo, Manus, Kavieng, Hoskins and Rabaul. Meanwhile NAC’s airport runway upgrade works continue in Mount Hagen, Tari and Mendi, with Wapenamanda to commence on 09th October.
Flights from Port Moresby to Goroka have increased from 14 to 17 services in a week - the additional 3 flights operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.
Direct services between Port Moresby and Vanimo have increased from 2 to 3 weekly flights. This means Vanimo now has daily flights - 3 direct from Port Moresby, 1 via Wewak and 3 via Lae, Madang and Wewak. This also results in an increase in flights for the Momase coastal services which link Lae, Madang, Wewak and Vanimo from 2 to 3 in a week.
A new direct service between Wewak and Manus has commenced operating on Mondays, and returning from Manus to Wewak on Thursdays.
