About the airline

Air Niugini (PX/ANG) is the national airline of Papua New Guinea, founded in 1973. Based at Jacksons International Airport in Port Moresby, it operates a fleet of 25 aircraft serving 26 destinations across the South Pacific, Australia, and Southeast Asia.

Fleet

Air Niugini (IATA: PX, ICAO: ANG) is Papua New Guinea's national airline, established in November 1973. The carrier operates from its primary hub at Jacksons International Airport (also known as Port Moresby International Airport) and maintains a network of 26 destinations, including major regional centres such as Brisbane, Cairns, Sydney, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Manila, as well as 12 or more domestic points across Papua New Guinea.

The airline's fleet comprises 25 aircraft, predominantly consisting of Boeing narrowbodies (737 and 767) and Fokker regional jets (70 and 100 series). This mix enables Air Niugini to operate both long-haul international routes and short-haul domestic services efficiently. The fleet composition reflects the airline's dual role: connecting Papua New Guinea to international markets while serving the country's internal network.

Air Niugini operates a frequent flyer program called Destinations, structured in three tiers: a free entry level plus paid Silver and Gold Executive Club memberships. The airline also owns Link PNG, a subsidiary carrier. As the national flag carrier, Air Niugini remains the primary international gateway for Papua New Guinea.
