 Faaa Airport - Tahiti by easyoar
If you have never been to Tahiti, you will probably look at the title and think "What on earth is that word - Faaa". Faaa is the name of the airport (it is also the name of the closest town). It's an incredibly simple word, but leaves you wondering whether you have actually pronounced it properly or not!
It's quite a pleasnat airport, but the duty free pricees are criminal, as are all prices in Tahiti, but I think the airport wins, so don't wait to buy anything at the airport.
Also when you leave, you can get some very long queues and waits to get on to your flight. Delayed flights seemed common. If you are heading to the U.S., you will get searched a lot more than if you fly anywhere else (fotuntely I wasn't headed that way...), but the Americans on the checking queue next to me were getting very annoyed at the hoops they had to jump through.
Destinations I can remember are Auckland NZ, Easter Island, US and of course France! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 The only airport with 3
consecutive vowels! by Geisha_Girl
Tahiti Faa'a International Airport is one of the most colorful airports I had ever flown into. Upon arrival, you are immediately welcomed with a colorful array of lei stands, blaring Tahitian music, and a true taste of the Tahitian lifestyle in Papeete.........laid-back yet hustling all at once!
All incoming international flights to French Polynesia touch down at the Faa'a Airport.
Air New Zealand, Qantas, Air France, Hawaiian Airlines, and Air Tahiti are the main carriers arriving at this destination. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Welcome band at Papeete
Airport by grets
A very friendly immigration official, the cases are already there when we get there, and we are straight through customs.
A rep with our name on greets us with a flower garland. After waiting for all the passengers to come through, we are directed to a baby bus which is only half full.
We drive through the dock area and downtown Papeete, still with lots of actvity at 3am. "Windsong" is moored in the docks, she lloks very impressive. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Air Tahiti Nui by Helga67
We came by Air Tahiti Nui and were very satisfied. We were welcomed on board by smiling Polynesian hostesses who offered us a Tiare Tahiti flower. Service and food are excellent and so are the seats (2 near the window and 4 in the middle) with a private screen for every passenger with 6 movies, games and flight info).
Air Tahiti Nui has three flights a week from Paris and six from Los Angeles. It will take you 22h from Paris and 7.5 h from Los Angeles to Tahiti.
Economy-class passengers are allowed 20 kg (44 pounds) and a carry-on bag that will fit under your seat (115 cm/45 in). Leave a Comment

The best compagny to fly to French Polynesia.
Planes are brand new with personal tv screen and games even in economics. Service is excellent and food better than usual in planes. You already feel like you're there !
They are flying to Tahiti from USA, France, Japan and Australia. Leave a Comment

 Le Truck in Tahiti by easyoar
Most people seem to have a meet and greet at the airport, which takes the stress out of the situation, but I prefer to try and sort things out myself (in this case VASTLY reducing the cost of getting to Papeete. If you leave the airport and walk across the carpark, go up some steps and go towards the right a bit, you will find the stop for Le Truck, it isn't as well marked as in some countries - in fact I saw no mark at all!
I can'tremember the exact cost, but it was the only thing I remember in Tahiti that felt good value.
I haven't got picture of Le-Truck myself, so this photo is courtesy of Tahiti Tourisme Leave a Comment Theme: Bus
