Two other new Air Niugini A220- 300 Airbus aircrafts will soon join the new one already in service with the airline’s fleet to further boost the service to the people of Papua New Guinea (PNG).
Air Niugini’s second and third brand new Airbus A220-300 aircraft — registered P2-PGB and P2-PGC — are taking shape at the Airbus factory in Mirabel, Canada.
Following the historic arrival of the first A220-300 aircraft, P2-PGA on 15th September, just in time for PNG’s 50th Independence Anniversary, the next two A220s will soon join the fleet to continue Air Niugini’s exciting transformation journey.
While P2-PGA wears the special 50th Anniversary livery with the PNG flag and colours, P2-PGB and P2-PGC proudly feature our classic Air Niugini livery featuring the iconic Bird of Paradise — timeless, elegant, and proudly Papua New Guinean - symbolizing Papua New Guinea’s spirit and connection to the world.
Both aircraft are now nearing completion, with the final touches being done before P2-PGB and P2-PGC arrive before the end of the year – ready to usher in a new era of comfort, reliability, and efficiency in our skies.
These aircraft are not just new planes – they represent a new chapter for Air Niugini and for Papua New Guinea aviation as they bring more comfort, reliability, and efficiency to domestic and regional international travel, and strengthen connections across our beautiful country and the region.
“We can’t wait to welcome our new beautiful birds home soon,” Air Niugini stated.
