The national airline is Air Nauru (ON); its destinations include Brisbane and Melbourne in Australia, Guam and Fiji. It also offers charter services to Sydney,
Australia and Norfolk Island. There are a number of passes available, including the Pacific Air Pass and the Pacific Wanderer Pass. The Visit the South Pacific Pass is valid for many airlines operating in the South Pacific, including most of the larger ones, such as Air Caledonie, Air Marshall Islands, Air Nauru, Air Niugingi, Air Pacific, Air Vanuatu, Polynesian Airlines, Qantas, Royal Tongan Airlines and Solomon Airlines. Offering reductions of up to 40 per cent on normal airfares, this sector-based pass allows for flexible island-hopping between
the destinations of the Cook Islands, Fiji, Nauru, New Caledonia, Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga, Vanuatu and the more remote Melanesian
and Micronesian islands, together with major cities in Australia (Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney) and New Zealand (Auckland,
Christchurch and Wellington). It is only available for people resident outside of the South Pacific. The journey must be started
outside the South Pacific and only one stopover in Australia is allowed. A minimum of two sectors must be bought before departure
(extra sectors can be purchased en route). There is a maximum of one pass per person, and passes must be used within six months
of the first day of travel. Children under 12 years of age pay 75 per cent of the adult fare. For details and conditions,
contact the South Pacific Tourist Organisation (see Top Things To See & Do).
