Air VanuatuAVN/ NF

Air Vanuatu is the national airline of Vanuatu, headquartered in Port Vila, and has operated since 1981 as the country's primary carrier for international and domestic passenger services. The airline serves as a vital link for the South Pacific region, operating routes connecting Vanuatu to nearby island nations and Australia, with its main hub at Bauerfield International Airport in Port Vila. As a full-service carrier, Air Vanuatu offers economy and business class seating on its regional network, catering primarily to leisure and business travelers exploring the Pacific islands. The airline has faced operational challenges over the years, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on regional travel, but remains an important carrier for maintaining connectivity in one of the world's most remote and geographically dispersed regions. Air Vanuatu is not part of a major global airline alliance, operating independently to serve the unique needs of its island nation and the broader South Pacific market.
