Air Tahiti Nui wins Best Pacific Airline Award
Air Tahiti Nui, the international airline of Tahiti and her Islands, has been named “Best Airline – Pacific Region” for the fifth consecutive year in the annual Skytrax Awards for airline excellence.
The airline has also won the “Best Cabin Crew” category for the Pacific region in the 2007 Skytrax rankings, which assess airlines of all sizes and styles around the world.
And it has achieved a Four Star rating overall for its in-flight and on ground services.
“It is a great honour to be recognised once as the best airline in the markets you serve,” said Craig Lee, Regional Director Australia for Air Tahiti Nui. “But to be voted Best Airline – Pacific Region five times in a global awards programme indicates clearly that our service is not just good – it is consistently good,” said Mr Lee.
“Although the awards measure all aspects of airline quality, a major factor in our success is the high standard of care delivered to passengers by our cabin crew, so to also win the best Cabin Crew award for the Pacific region doubles the honour for us,” he said.
The World Airline Awards ® are based on the annual World Airline Survey by Skytrax – carried out between August 2006 and June 2007. Skytrax said there were more than 3.5 million eligible responses and more than 90 nationalities represented in the latest survey.
From Australia, Air Tahiti Nui offers three weekly flights to French Polynesia – two nonstop flights between Sydney and Papeete, and one via Auckland, and from late October a second service will be introduced via Auckland. From Papeete, Air Tahiti Nui offers onward connections to Los Angeles and New York, and to Paris, via Los Angeles, as well as services from Papeete to Tokyo and Osaka.
