Hotel May Bring More

Planes To Tonga

The start of work recently on Tonga's long-heralded hotel at Nuku alofa (see story p. 21) will probably mean additional air services to Nuku alofa when it is completed. The scheduled date of completion is the end of 1965.

It is understood that Tonga will bend most of its efforts to attract tourists towards America, which will probably mean a frequent Pan American air service from Pago Pago.

At present, Tonga's only air link is with Nausori, Fiji, by Fiji Airways Heron.
