The Chilean national airline, LAN- Chile, will inaugurate an air service linking Chile and Tahiti via Easter Island in January. A DC6-B aircraft, carrying 40 passengers, will be used on the service.
On the first flight, the plane will leave Santiago on January 2 and will stay overnight at Easter Island, arriving in Tahiti about 3 p.m. next day. The plane will remain in Tahiti until January 7 and will return to Santiago after another overnight stop at Easter Island.
It is understood that the new service will also be fortnightly.
