JAL and AA Consider Adding Alaska Airlines Group to Joint Venture
Air Niugini will resume operations of its Japan office from June 1.
Kenzo Shimada, who has worked at Air Niugini’s Japan branch for 27 years, serving 14 of those years as branch manager, will be appointed as the new branch manager.
Air Niugini terminated its contract with Global Aviation Link, which had been serving as the general sales agent for the Japan area, on April 30.
Air Niugini operated the Tokyo/Narita–Port Moresby route until February 2020. During aviation negotiations between Japan and Papua New Guinea in October 2023, a framework was established to allow for a stopover in Palau.
