Hoskins airport

The Vice Sports Minister is visiting the PNG Games sites in West New Britain as one of his major priorities.

He was accompanied by the CEO of the Sports Foundation, Peter Tsiamalili, and the Host Organising Committee, along with John Susuve.

The sports delegation started their site inspection from the Hoskins Mini stadium, Kapore Mini stadium, the Kimbe Rugby Oval and San Remo for the track and field events.

Minister Raminai was very pleased with the site visit, saying West New Britain Province is 'games ready'.

Air Niugini in a media statement stated that the Fokker services into Hoskins airport will resume this Saturday Dec 3.

The recommencement of the Fokker services was followed by the completion of maintenance work on the runway.

The airline’s F70 and F100 aircraft were unable to operate to Hoskins since September this year to allow for further works to be carried out on the runway surface.

Since then, Air Niugini’s subsidiary company, Link PNG has been operating its Dash 8 aircraft to and from Hoskins.
