Air Niugini includes hotel into programme

WITH the aim to promote the country’s tourism industry, Air Niugini has welcomed Gazelle International Hotel Ltd in East New Britain as the latest inclusion into its destinations loyalty programme.
Air Niugini’s general manager commercial Dominic Kaumu said this inclusion brought the total destinations corporate partners to 20.
He said the partnership, as many others that the airline had, further complemented Air Niugini’s post-Covid-19 strategy to focus on the domestic market and promote local tourism.
“Air Niugini is working with the local hotel industry to encourage individuals to take trips, visit a specific destinations and enjoy the diversity and beauty of Papua New Guinea.”
The two-year partnership provides destinations members the opportunity to earn loyalty points when staying at Gazelle International Hotel either for business or leisure.
“With the points earned, they can then redeem for a ticket or redeem on selected items from the other corporate redemption partners that we have,” Kaumu said.
