PNG Air Chief Commercial Officer Paul Abbot

“We’d like to help people get into the Christmas spirit and also say thanks to all those who have supported us in our first year of operation,” says Chief Commercial Officer Paul Abbot.

“Together with the team from EMTV and a number of the stars from the hit series Vocal Fusion, passengers checking in and on board the aircraft will be treated to live entertainment as our way of ending the year on a high.”

Artists featured on PNG Air flights for the next two weeks include Joseph Ehava, Theo Benjamin, Didi Maru, Isaiah Mano and Peter Ho’leong.

In a statement the firm says: “Due to damage to the runway at Goroka reaching a level that the airline feels poses a significant safety threat to ongoing operations, the airline has cancelled scheduled services to the port until further notice.”

Chief Commercial Officer Paul Abbot assures customers that they are monitoring the situation daily.

“We hope that necessary repairs will be carried out quickly so we can resume services as soon as possible,” he says.
