Air Niugini has acquired a new Dash 8 Q400 aircraft, marking its first purchase rather than lease in years, driven by favorable economic conditions. Funded by the National Government's Public Investment Program, the $7 million aircraft will enhance operational efficiency on domestic routes. After necessary deregistration and safety assessments, it is expected to enter service in November. The airline also plans to expand its fleet with Airbus A220 and Boeing 787 models.
