Useful tips for plane travellers
• Be prepared for a lengthy journey; with a total travel time of nearly 28 hours, consider breaking up your travel with a stopover in Tahiti, as both Air Tahiti Nui and Qantas operate flights connecting through Papeete (PTP) before heading to Vaitape.
• Upon arriving at the Vaitape airport (Bora Bora Airport), expect a small but well-organized airport; the best way to navigate is to follow the signs towards the baggage claim and customs, keeping in mind that luggage can take a little longer to arrive due to the smaller size of the airport.
• Taxi fares from Bora Bora Airport to Vaitape's city center are approximately 1500-2000 XPF (about $15-$20 USD); it's advisable to confirm the fare with the driver before you set off to avoid any surprises.
