We are now almost mid-way through 2025 and there have been a lot of uphill battles, but that comes with the industry we are in. We are doing our best to manoeuvre the hurdles that hinder our daily operations, while at the same time ensuring we deliver to the best of our ability without compromising safety. At PNG Air, the staff continue to work tirelessly to ensure we get you, our loyal and valued customers, to your intended destinations safely and on time. If you are a regular traveller, we appreciate your choice to travel with PNG Air. For those of you who are travelling with us for the first time, we hope your travel experience with us is nothing short of spectacular. I would also like to acknowledge the support of our travelling mine workers from Newcrest Mining and St Barbara Mining, both in the New Ireland Province, and also K92 Mining in the Ramu Valley. As we progress through 2025, PNG Air will continue striving to do what we do best – and that is connecting our people by transporting them safely from where they are to where they need to be. On behalf of the board, management and staff of PNG Air, we thank you, our passengers, for choosing PNG Air. We look forward to welcoming you on board when you next travel with us as we continue to connect Papua New Guinea.
