AIir Niugini Resumes Fokker Jet Services To Madang
November 17, 2021
Following the resumption of jet services to Wewak last week, Air Niugini wishes to advise the travelling public that the airline has now also resumed its Fokker jet services to Madang effective tomorrow, Wednesday 17th November 2021.
The resumption of Fokker flights follows the completion of runway maintenance works by the National Airports Corporation(NAC). Since the works on the airport runway commenced early this year, Link PNG has been operating to Madang airport using smaller Dash-8 aircraft, but with passenger numbers restricted to as few as 20 at times because of the shortened runway. For a period of time in July/August the runway was closed to even Dash-8 size aircraft.
