Lulutai issues cancellation warning after Fiji Airways’ mechanical issue

Lulutai Airlines said it canceled its two flights scheduled for today Monday 13 due to maintenance issue facing its Fiji Airways’ hired carrier.

“To all our passengers traveling to and from Vavau on the two services today , please be advised that your service was canceled due to mechanical issues in Fiji”, a statement released by the airlines said this afternoon.

It also said the ATR has finally departed Fiji and was on its way to Tonga.

The services are expected to be back on track on Tuesday.

“ATR services tomorrow to Vavau will resume as normal”.

“ Our team is currently working on moving all passengers to tomorrows service and if you have any issues or misconnects to international flights please send details via messenger”.

As Kaniva News reported recently, Fiji Airways is stepping in to help Tonga’s national airline maintain services to Vava’u from February 3, to June 30.

Australia has signed an agreement with Tonga to help the kingdom pay Fiji Airways to run the passenger service seven times a week between Tongatapu and Vava’u.

Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans  wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
