Boeing 737-800

Air Niugini operates a single B737-800 on routes from Port Moresby to Brisbane, Sydney and several other destinations. This year they were supposed to start taking delivery of four Boeing 737 Max 8 to replace the 737NG. Due to the ongoing Max issues, delivery of these birds has been postponed until a further undetermined date.

My Thoughts

Air Niugini is a small airline with rich history, and a beautiful-simple livery. This would complement the other Pacific Island liveries already in game and would open up for more exploration of the nation of Papua New Guinea!

Thanks for reading, and don’t forget to vote!

Interesting request! I’ve never even seen this airline before until I did some research on it now.

Yeah its quite obscure compared to the big names, but there are lots of small carriers in this part of the world-- Air Calin being another one, which hopefully their A320 or A330 can be added to the sim!
