PACIFIC FLIER out of BNE finally.
|
I'd definitely take one of those flights. I loved Guam, and would love to visit Palau.
The flights to and from Japan for both myself and my brother (him JO/JL KIX-GUM, and me CO/CS NRT-GUM) were very full, and for a 4 hour long flight they weren't the cheapest flights!! Saipan is not as nice as Guam, either but I'd imagine Palau would be more like Fiji. |
Is it just me or is their schedule on their website too confusing to make any sense? Also they talk about online booking but nowhere to do it.
I wish them luck but pretty brave starting flights exactly a month after launching the airline. I suspect pretty low loads for the first couple of months await... That said, it's smart pretty smart to offer connections to NRT and MNL to fill up the plane (though from the schedule it's hard to work out how good the connections actually are). Pricing will have to be competitive to compete with the non-stop options, though. Good luck to them... Tempting to get on board if only for the A310 :) |

Also more new flights for Brisbane

Hi All,
Thanks for posting up the intial information for me. I have been busy with my colleagues finalsing everything for the launch. The res system should be up in next day or so. For those in BNE you should see the aircraft arrive in BNE from ROR on 8th JAN at 0545. It will be stationed there the whole day and depart for GUM on TUE 9th at 0730am. If you require any information like industry specials, PDF of schedule etc please email me malcolm@aerius.com.au |
Thanks Malcolm, and i am assure on behalf of all members we wish them a successful start up .I know already some aviation enthusiasts are keen to fly the 310 at some stage.
I know the Brissie guys are looking fwd to seeing it. Thanks and Cheers Lloyd |
Just been trying to work out their schedule... This is the way I see it.
Monday - on ground in BNE Tuesday - BNE-GUM-ROR-MNL Wednesday - MNL-ROR-GUM-BNE-ROR (overnight flight arr THU am) Thursday - ROR-NRT-ROR-MNL Friday - MNL-ROR-GUM-BNE Saturday - BNE-GUM-ROR-MNL Sunday - MNL-ROR-NRT-ROR-BNE (overnight flight arr MON am) Pretty clever utilisation as i see it, allowing connections to/from all destinations and one day in BNE per week for maintenance. Looks like overnights are in Manila and Brisbane only. |
it is not MNL, it is CLK, (ie using Clark - Diosdado Macapagal International Airport, which is 100km north of Manila)
|
Hi All,
Just to advise ops have been postponed due to Hi-fly requesting some last minute changes in block times, which now have to go through regulators for final approval. JAN 12/ 13 will be new start up date. We should have intial brochures through our own internal Wholesaler in a few weeks time. A more comprehensive incorporating diving will be out by about March. |

KOROR (Palau Horizon) – Pacific Flier announced on Tuesday that it is ready to take off on March 30 from Philippines. Shane Styles, the airline’s marketing chief said the new Republic of Palau based airline will commence services on March 30 to coincide with this coming Easter. The inaugural flight will be on March 30 from the Clark Field, located at the northern part of the Philippines. For the first three flights, the airline is offering a special rate of $339 round trip. The regular airfare meanwhile will be $399. The new airline is also offering services from Palau to Brisbane, Australia and said that its services to Guam will begin in May. For the Brisbane flight, on the March 31 flight, the airfare is $399. For the April 11 flight, the airline is offering an airfare of $499 and after that the regular price will be at $599. Pacific Flier Airline is supposed to start flight on January 15, however Federak Aviation Administration failed to grant the airline an air carrier’s permit due to ownership issues. The airline has 18 business and 176 economy passenger seats. “A long time in the planning and making, PacificFlier has been able to inaugurate a schedule of charter services with the full backing of the government of the Republic of Palau. PacificFlier wants to acknowledge its appreciation for the support it has received from the Government of The Republic of Palau,” Styles said in a statement. Pacific Flier scheduled departure is every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday from Palau to Clark at 7:00 a.m. with arrivals at 10:35 a.m. Passengers living in Manila can take a shuttle bus for free provided by the airline. Two check-in baggage, weighing 70 lbs. each are also allowed by the airline for each passenger. Schedule for departures from Clark is every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday leaving at 5:40 pm arriving Koror at 7:10 pm, local time. |
VH-VNK operated the inaugural Tiger Airways flight into Brisbane this morning operating TT8112 from Adelaide.
VNK should be arriving back in Brisbane shortly from the inaugural rotation to Rockhampton. However it appears it has been delayed. |
What's that got to do with Pacific Flyer?
|
I think this thread has started to discuss other new carriers at BNE.
Back on topic--Pacific Flier is going to offer 2x 70lbs bags? :eek: |
PFL 302 running late due at 1910 hrs at BNE.
|
Touched down 1945 with only 2 pax on board according to jetspotter.com!!! Hopefully this is cause they only just announced flights two weeks ago and there loads pick up soon.
|
Positioing flight Brandon-Positioning flight.
The 2 pax were probably relief pilots ??? Tonights flight does have cargo and pax over 50 on board -may be more by now, as flight had very limited start up time. |
Thanks for that Lloyd.
|
How are the loads now? Interesting to see if they can fill up 200+ seats
|
bye bye
Koror – Palau-based airline Pacific Flier of Aviation Matters has suspended all flights operations to and from Koror last week on account of poor passenger sales and operating losses after it failed to secure landing rights to Guam.
President Johnson Toribiong of Palau said that the airline which has only been in service for four months has cancelled all flights “until further notice.” Its last flight was made to the Philippines' Manila-Clark airport on friday, August 13, 2010 with resumption to its service likely to be nil. |
Yeah, just noticed on Skyliner news that CS-TEI flew Amman-Lisbon on 16th August.
