Air Niugini (ANG) has now transitioned into the new Nadzab Tomodachi International Terminal in Lae, Morobe Province. The National Airports Corporation Limited (NAC) welcomed the National Air Carrier and congratulated them on their successful transition from the old to the new Airport Terminal. This marks the beginning of the NAC working closely with ANG and other airline operators to provide an improved service for passengers. All Air Niugini passengers as well as passengers from other airlines, will now be processed at the new Nadzab Tomodachi International Terminal. The old terminal will remain open; however, it will only be processing cargo for Air Niugini and PNG Air. The new Nadzab Tomodachi International Airport Terminal was officially opened last year however only PNG Air was able to successfully transition to the NAC Common User Passenger Processing System (CUPPS) and were able to operate from the new terminal on that date. “As planned, Air Niugini have commenced normal operations at the new terminal beginning today with a smooth transition of their systems to the NAC system, said Dominic Kaumu, Acting Managing Director, and CEO of NAC.” “All issues have been resolved and we are very pleased that the B737 operations from the new aerobridges have also commenced and have been successful.” Meanwhile, NAC advised all stakeholders that all systems and offices for Customs, Immigration and Quarantine have been installed and set up in the new terminal awaiting arrangements for Regular Passenger Transport (RPT) for international operations which is being organized by the Department of Transport.
