Air Niugini orders four 737 MAX 8s to fly from its Port Moresby hub

Air Niuginian, which operates out of Papua New Guinea, has placed an order for four Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft.

The previously unidentified order adds to the national carrier's current fleet of Next-Generation 737s and 767-300ERs (extended range) aircraft.



The 737 MAX incorporates the latest technology CFM International LEAP-1B engines, Advanced Technology winglets and other improvements to deliver the highest efficiency, reliability and passenger comfort in the single-aisle market.



The new single-aisle plane will deliver 20 per cent lower fuel use than the first Next-Generation 737s and the lowest operating costs in its class, said the release.



Air Niugini operates a domestic network of more than 25 destinations from its Port Moresby hub, as well as numerous international routes across Asia-Pacific, including Australia, Singapore, Indonesia, Fiji, Philippines, Solomon Islands, Hong Kong, Vanuatu, Japan, and in the near future, China.
