Air Niugini, the national airline of Papua New Guinea, is expanding its fleet in response to increased demand for its scheduled services. Within the next two months the airline will take delivery of two more Fokker F100 aircraft to add to the three already in operation, and will increase its Bombardier Q200 fleet from four aircraft to six. Chief executive Wasantha Kumarasiri said: "With the increase in the number of F100s, we plan to retire the F28s and then our domestic services will all operate on the newer aircraft."
The airline also operates a Boeing 767-300ER which is used on services from Port Moresby, the capital of Papua New Guinea to Hong Kong, Manila, Tokyo and Singapore. Qantas also serves Port Moresby from Cairns, Brisbane and Sydney.
