Qantas’ new service will connect Apia directly with Auckland in a move that strengthens Pacific connectivity and opens new opportunities for visitors in New Zealand
The new route not only provides greater access to Samoa, but also creates a new travel option for international visitors already exploring New Zealand who wish to extend their journey with an add-on experience in the South Pacific.
Samoa Tourism Authority CEO, Niumata Kitiona Pogi, said, “Samoa has always been a favourite destination for travellers seeking authentic experiences, and this new connection makes it easier for more visitors to discover our islands. Samoa offers the perfect complement to a New Zealand holiday, providing visitors with the chance to experience our unique culture, pristine natural environment, and the genuine warmth of the Samoan people.”
The introduction of this service reinforces Samoa’s commitment to improving access for global travellers.
