The first ever Boeing 737 service will touch down in Gurney at 1120am on Friday 26th February, 2021.
Thereafter the B737 aircraft will become a regular sight at Gurney Airport, with three weekly services from 28th March, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
Fokker jet aircraft will continue to service Alotau on all other days of the week.
