COVID Hinders Remote Travel

Travelers from the most remote parts of Papua New Guinea are unable to access flights because of recently introduced measures to control the spread pf COVID-19 in PNG.

Local aviation service provider, Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) said the current orders from the National Control Center (NCC) require any passenger boarding an aircraft for a domestic flight to have a negative test report for COVID-19, and they recognize the difficulty in obtaining a COVID test for travel in most places.
