Airport Assistance Services at Papeete Airport

During peak periods, when long-haul flights arrive or depart back-to-back to and from PPT, immigration and security lines can fill up. AirportAssist helps the airport coordinate and guide passengers through the airport processes. The service is particularly useful for families, the elderly, business travellers, and tourists heading to and from other islands.

Meet and Greet assistance is provided at Papeete airport to travellers, with a personal contact. Passengers can be directed when leaving at the check-in and at the airport, as well as when boarding, to the taxis, hotel transfers, ferries or other onward transport, and to help them navigate the airport.

Lounge areas are available at the Faa'a International Airport, but they are not as numerous as those at other large international airports. AirportAssist can assist travellers to determine what facilities are available and what the accessibility is based on the requirements of their airline, travel class, membership or other access arrangements that are applicable.

VIP Airport Assistance at PPT is more than just a service; it's a blend of privacy, comfort, and personal coordination. AirportAssist can help travellers at check-in, navigate the terminals, at baggage collection and forward travel. For all high-profile passengers, honeymooners, families, and travellers, this service is available to take them on the trip.

Families, elderly persons and people with limited mobility may find this tiring due to long-haul flights and travel to a new island afterwards. At the airport, AirportAssist can help you to arrange for your child's assistance, luggage or mobility when arriving or departing from Tahiti or a connection.

Lots of visitors come to Tahiti with bags packed for longer vacation periods or to go on to other islands. This baggage assistance service is very useful, especially for honeymooners, groups and families who have lots of bags to carry as they carry their bags from check-in to baggage reclaim and onwards to the transportation.

• PPT is small but still needs to be well planned when it comes to international to domestic connections. Immigration and bag collection and re-check-in for an inter-island flight may be necessary.
• Allow 3 hours for a flight from abroad to domestic, particularly if you are flying on separate tickets. Having a longer buffer is safer when travelling to your next flight, or it's a critical flight.
• There are lots of flights that leave late at night or early in the morning. Don't take it for granted that all restaurants, lounges, and transportation services will be available at all hours.
• Please verify the allowance with the airline, especially on domestic flights to islands such as Bora Bora, as it may differ from the allowance that is given on your international flight.
