Air Calédonie and Air Tahiti share their technical expertise

Posted on | by editeur aircal

As part of our historic partnership with Air Tahiti, a team from the technical management of Air Calédonie has been working in their maintenance workshops since the beginning of the month, and a Tahitian technician has come to provide us with specific expertise on corrosion points.

Detached teams

Anthony and Jordan, two of our technicians, have been on a mission since the beginning of March, supporting the maintenance visits of the Tahitian airline’s fleet, particularly on the ATR 72-600 and 42-500, which are well known to our teams. Integrated into Air Tahiti’s technical management, they are participating in various annual maintenance operations necessary to ensure flight safety.

Simon arrived from French Polynesia in mid-March and is contributing his expertise to measure the level of corrosion encountered on our aircraft, enabling our teams to treat them effectively.

A great challenge for our teams

In addition to Air Calédonie’s desire to position itself as a reference maintenance organization in the South Pacific region, approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), this detachment to Tahiti is also an opportunity for our technicians to discover another maintenance organization in an environment similar to that of Air Calédonie. This immersion at Air Tahiti is all the more enriching because these maintenance operations are carried out on older aircraft than those in our fleet, sometimes requiring more in-depth operations.

A strong collaboration between the two companies

For several years, the two companies have collaborated on various areas and shared their expertise. In 2022, for example, an Air Calédonie revenue management collaborator had participated in the overhaul of Air Tahiti’s commercial grid by reinforcing the team in Papeete for 4 weeks.

These changes can be made via email (vente@air-caledonie.nc) or by phone with our agents at 25 21 77.

The company regrets this situation which is beyond its control and thanks its customers for their understanding.

Travelling off peak : the best way to enjoy your trip !

Posted on | by editeur aircal

The beautiful summer vacation has given way to the calm of the back-to-school period. And while some have decided to wait for the next vacation to plan their next trip, for others, traveling during off-peak periods can be a very advantageous alternative.

Make great savings

The main reason why you should choose to travel during off-peak periods is to be able to benefit from the best rates. Indeed, during periods of high traffic, demand is high. Consequently, the best rates are highly sought after and availability quickly disappears. By choosing to travel during off-peak periods, you can take advantage of our best rates on air tickets and benefit from more availability on the dates you have selected. You can, for example, take advantage of the Super Loisir or Loisir fare to travel at a reduced price. Additionally, you can also take advantage of better deals and promotions for accommodation and tourist activities. If you want an all-inclusive stay, contact our approved agencies for the organization of your next vacation. Our partner travel agencies will offer you their best deals including flights and accommodation.

More serenity at the destination

Traveling during off-peak periods can also offer the advantage of visiting our destinations while enjoying more tranquility because they are less crowded than during peak periods. You will appreciate visiting the must-see places of our destinations in peace, especially those popular with vacationers like the “marmites” of Cap des Pins in Lifou or the natural pool on the Isle of Pines. Far from the frenzy of vacations or long weekends, this will also be an opportunity to discover your destination in a more authentic way and to mingle more with the local culture.

Favorable weather conditions

Finally, traveling during off-peak periods can also offer the advantage of enjoying more favorable weather conditions. Avoid the heat of December and January and choose instead to travel during the cool season, which will be just as pleasant. The months of May and June seem to be the most favorable periods for travel if you want to travel during off-peak periods: the cyclone season will have ended and the temperatures are still very mild before the start of the cool season.

Traveling during off-peak periods can offer you many advantages. If you are flexible on your travel dates, we strongly encourage you to consider this option for your next trip!
