AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoSanto gets a direct boost: Vanuatu Tourism Office, Solomon Airlines and Brisbane Airport just hosted “Twice as Nice – Santo” in Brisbane, with the big news that Solomon Airlines will add two direct flights per week from Brisbane to Espiritu Santo (Thursdays and Saturdays), cutting travel time and making it easier to sell Santo’s blue holes, dive sites, caves and waterfalls to Australian agents. Air Vanuatu push: Meanwhile, Air Vanuatu’s chairman says the government stepped in with fuel subsidies to prevent ticket hikes during the Middle East crisis, as the airline renews its fleet and works through runway upgrades on Tanna. Tourism context, not all smooth: Royal Caribbean’s “Perfect Day” private-island plan in Vanuatu is still moving, but the wider cruise private-island push faces growing environmental pushback elsewhere. Regional backdrop: Pacific leaders are also juggling fuel supply strain while keeping in-person meetings going, and PNG is advancing a massive no-take marine protected area tied to a “marine highway” corridor.
