Following interim repairs to the runway in Port Vila (NVVV/VLI) earlier this year, concerns have been raised once again about the condition of the runway. On Monday, the Airport Authority notified an issue with some loose pieces on the runway, and repaired those – but some operators have chosen not to operate. Inbound flights were diverted. Currently, Air NZ is not flying to Vanuatu and awaiting a comprehensive upgrade to the runway.
