Travel advisories are official updates that provide critical information regarding travel conditions that may affect your trip. These advisories can include a range of topics such as:

• Health Advisories: Information on outbreaks, vaccination requirements, or other health-related concerns.

2. Health and Safety Guidelines: Traveling During a Pandemic

In recent years, health advisories have become a major focus for travelers, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Air Niugini provides regular updates on health and safety guidelines to ensure that our passengers are well-prepared:

Vaccination Requirements:  

Many destinations now require proof of COVID-19 vaccination for entry. Ensure you have the appropriate documentation, such as a vaccination certificate or digital health pass, before you travel.

Some countries may require quarantine or isolation upon arrival, especially if you’re traveling from a high-risk area. We provide detailed information on any such requirements to help you plan accordingly.

Weather conditions can have a significant impact on travel plans. From tropical cyclones to heavy snowfall, being aware of weather warnings can help you prepare for potential delays or cancellations:
