New Codeshare Allowing Seamless Access to French Polynesia's Outlying Islands, Now in Effect!
PAPEETE, French Polynesia, June 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Tahiti Nui, the international flagship carrier of French Polynesia, and Air Tahiti, the domestic inter-island carrier, are pleased to announce the activation of their codeshare agreement, originally signed in December 2025. As planned, travelers can now book and travel on flights operated under this commercial partnership as of June 3, 2026.
The new partnership allows Air Tahiti Nui to place its TN code on select inter-island flights operated by Air Tahiti, creating a more seamless travel experience for visitors to The Islands of Tahiti. Through the agreement, travelers can more easily access some of the South Pacific's most sought-after destinations, including Bora Bora in French Polynesia and Rarotonga in the Cook Islands.
Passengers can now book a single ticket that includes:
- An international flight operated by Air Tahiti Nui from Europe, the United States, Japan, or New Zealand; and
- A connecting inter-island flight operated by Air Tahiti between Tahiti and their final destination, including Bora Bora or Rarotonga.
This streamlined booking process offers travelers greater convenience, simplified connections, and a smoother overall travel experience from departure to arrival.
Passengers will travel aboard Air Tahiti Nui's Tahitian Dreamliner (Boeing 787-9) for international flights and Air Tahiti's ATR 72 aircraft for inter-island services.
The activation of this codeshare agreement further strengthens the longstanding relationship between Air Tahiti Nui and Air Tahiti while representing an important milestone in enhancing connectivity throughout the South Pacific. Together, the two carriers are making it easier than ever for international travelers to discover the beauty, culture, and diversity of The Islands of Tahiti and beyond.
