Azorra has delivered one ATR 72-600 aircraft (MSN 1553) to Air Moana, a domestic airline based in Tahiti, French Polynesia, marking a new airline partnership for Azorra as it continues to expand its customer base in Oceania.
The delivery brings Air Moana’s total fleet to three ATR 72-600 aircraft, supporting essential services to destinations such as Bora Bora, Moorea and Huahine, and advancing the airline’s mission to increase capacity in the inter-island air transport market.
Sangeeta Rughooputh, Vice President – Marketing, Azorra, says: “We are proud to welcome Air Moana as a new Azorra customer. This delivery will help strengthen critical air links across French Polynesia and marks our continued expansion in the Pacific region. At Azorra, we remain committed to supporting our airline partners with dependable fleet solutions across a range of aircraft types, tailored to their unique operational needs.
“Equipped with modern avionics, including a glass cockpit, the ATR 72-600 is optimised for short-haul routes and operations on short runways, making it well-suited for island networks such as Air Moana’s. Its efficiency, versatility and proven reliability make it a great choice for carriers across the Pacific and beyond.”
Raitini Rey, VP Operations of Air Moana, says: “This aircraft is a strategic addition to our growing fleet and a key milestone for Air Moana, enabling us to better serve communities across our islands with greater reliability and efficiency. The ATR 72-600 is ideally suited to our network, and we thank Azorra for their partnership as we continue to expend operations across French Polynesia.”
