FRENCH POLYNESIA MOVES TO FUND NEW PAPEETE-PARIS SERVICE START UP
Three bills concerning air transportation are on the Assembly of French Polynesia's agenda as the government moves to develop funding to maintain air services with Paris. The establishment of the "Tahiti Nui Manureva" department is designed to enable Air Tahiti Nui to start flights from Pape'ete to Paris as a result of the problems faced by French airline AOM. The government also wants to create a new passenger tax at Tahiti-Faa'a International Airport, effective as early as August 1st. It would range from 100 French Pacific francs (US$ 0.77) for each passenger's domestic flights to 1,000 French Pacific francs (US$ 7.70) for international flights. The plan also includes leasing a second Airbus aircraft for Air Tahiti Nui starting September 15th. Air Tahiti Nui currently operates one Airbus A340, which flies to Japan, the United States and New Zealand.
