APEX 2020 : Air Tahiti Nui winner of the Passenger Choice Award™ for Best Seat Comfort for the South Pacific Region
PAPEETE, TAHITI (November 13, 2019) –
After being named “FIVE STAR MAJOR AIRLINE” in APEX’s Official Airline RatingsTM, Air Tahiti Nui is the winner of the APEX 2020 Regional Passenger Choice Award™ for Best Seat Comfort in the South Pacific Region.
In partnership with TripIt® from Concur®, the world’s highest-rated travel-organizing app, the 2020 APEX Passenger Choice Awards gathered anonymous third-party passenger feedback and insights. Using a five-star scale, more than one million flights were rated by passengers across nearly 600 airlines from around the world between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019.
It’s a new great reward for Air Tahiti Nui, which completed the renewal of its fleet last August, with 4 new Boeing Dreamliner 787-9.
The tri-class configuration of the aircrafts offers several levels of comfort. Each seat is designed to maximize the space available in the cabin while preserving the comfort of every passenger. The individual screen on each seat allows to enjoy the entertainment system, which is currently the most advanced in the world. The comfort on board is improved by cushions, blankets, amenity kits and accessories ensuring a pleasant and relaxing journey. Everything is enhanced by the Polynesian charm of the company, making Air Tahiti Nui the best way to visit French Polynesia.
