Air Tahiti Flights Papeete to Raro

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Cook Islands

I keep hearing that Air Tahiti is going to take up the slack that ANZ created by dropping this flight. First Aloha stopped the Hawaii to Raro run, now ANZ has made it virtually impossible for Hawaiians to get to Raro/CI. Anybody know anything real about this situation?

Air Tahiti and Air Rarotonga will handle the flights between Rarotonga and Tahiti (twice weekly, Tuesday and Saturday, 349 NZD or the equivalent in CFP each way). Flights begin April 3rd. There is nothing on the Air Tahiti Web site but information is available on the Air Rarotonga site.

SC, the info on Air Tahiti's website is here: Rarotonga par Air Tahiti

Thanks Laszlo! I was able to get to that page using the Search function.

When you go to the Air Tahiti Web site do you get it in English or French?

Here in the States it's in English with no French option, though the article did come up in French. Even searching google.fr I end up with the English language Air Tahiti site.

With my knowledge of French, or rather the lack of it, I had better stick to their English site.
Thanks for assuming otherwise! ;-)
But I also only found that info in French, though can understand the essentials in it.
Fares are less steep than I had thought Air Tahiti might make them.
