LAE Nadzab-Tomodachi International Flight Survey

LAE International Flight Consumer Survey

NADZAB-Tomodachi is now a world-class International Airport, yet to date we have no international flights inward or outbound.

Understanding that this is not a 'flick-the-switch' solution, LCCI Members have asked for a Survey which will quantify, by sample, the potential number of people who would use an International Service DIRECT to/from (or through POM-LAE- destination and vice-versa), at what frequency and whether Air Cargo import or export would justify this business case.

We know Air Niugini would like to make use of this International Facility for International flights and hope this survey would provide some quantifiable data to substantiate this (or otherwise).

NOTE - we have chosen FIVE points of Destination and Departure, understanding there are always other requests but it is felt that these would be the five main points of destination & departure to/from LAE.
Please answer honestly and with real numbers.
