Air Vanuatu flights

Hundreds of passengers affected by Air Vanuatu's flight cancellations

The airline said it has reached out to partner airlines for support with flying the impacted passengers while its plane awaits parts.

"However, unfortunately there are no additional services available at this time," the airline said in a statement on Sunday.

"Most Air Vanuatu international flights to and from Brisbane, Sydney and Auckland will not be operational until Tuesday at the earliest," it added.

RNZ pacific reports call centres were closed on the weekend, upsetting hundreds of passengers who took to social media to express their frustrations.
