Event
Air Vanuatu (NF) has resumed flight services to Australia and New Zealand as of April 18. The carrier had experienced flight disruptions on routes connecting Port Vila with Brisbane and Sydney in Australia, as well as Auckland in New Zealand, due to mechanical issues with its only Boeing 737 aircraft since March 31.
Lingering flight disruptions are possible as the airline works to clear passenger backlogs.
