Proudly providing domestic air services for the Kingdom of Tonga
The Kingdom of Tonga is a proudly Christian nation. "Tongatapu" is literally the Polynesian word for "Sacred South". Also named the "Friendly Islands" by Captain Cook in 1773, Tonga is the last remaining Polynesian Kingdom in the Pacific. The nation's capital is Nuku'alofa, situated on the main island of Tongatapu. International flights arrive and depart from Fua'amotu International Airport on Tongatapu. From Tongatapu, Lulutai Airlines proudly provides domestic services to the rest of Tonga's islands with airports in the outer island groups of Vava'u, Ha'apai, 'Eua, Niuafo'ou and Niuatoputapu. Around 90,000 people typically visit Tonga each year. With its slower way of life, friendly people and small compact islands, Tonga is a great choice for travelers seeking unique experiences beyond the beach. From the many small island resorts, visitors can also swim with humpback whales, marvel at the mystery of Tsunami Rock, stand under the 1200 AD Ha'amonga 'a Maui Trilithon, hear uplifting choirs at any Sunday church service, and trek a national park on a 40 million year old Island ('Eua).
