About

Air Tahiti is a French airline which flies domestically within French Polynesia with its hub at Fa’a’a International Airport (PPT). The Airline slogan Air Tahiti is 'the airline linking Tahiti and her islands.' As such, the airline flies to many islands and destinations including Ahe, Arutua, Bora Bora, Fakarava, Hao, Hiva Oa, Huahine, Makemo, Mangareva, Manihi, Mataiva, Maupiti, Moorea, Nuku Hiva, Raiatea, Raivavae, Rangiroa, Rarotonga and more.

The airline flies to 45 islands of French Polynesia and connects more than 90% of the population through a fleet of ATRs, de Havilland and Beechcraft. Air Tahiti also operates flights to Rarotonga in the Cook Islands. Despite being a private company, the carrier's primary purpose is to schedule air transportation between the islands of French Polynesia with a public service mission.

Passengers with the airline are able to purchase multi-island tours allowing people to visit more than one island on the same trip. There are many passes or extensions including Discovery Pass, Bora Bora Pass, Lagoons Pass, Corail Pass and many others. In addition, passengers are able to purchase one-island fares to search for one-way and return airfares to their destination.

The airline operates an open-seating policy on its flight so passengers are not allocated a seat at check-in.
