Airport Information
Frequently Asked Questions
The BLAK team answers the most common questions and covers the essentials for those thinking about flying to and from Tahiti, Bora Bora and the wider islands of French Polynesia.
Can you fly a private jet directly to Tahiti?
Yes. Tahiti’s Fa’a’ā International Airport (PPT) is the main international gateway to French Polynesia and regularly accommodates long-range private jet arrivals from the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Asia and Europe. From Tahiti, travellers can continue onward by charter aircraft or helicopter to destinations across the islands, including Bora Bora and Moorea.
Can a private jet land in Bora Bora?
Private aircraft can operate into Bora Bora Airport (BOB), located on the motu of Motu Mute within the lagoon. Many travellers first arrive by private jet to Tahiti before continuing onward on a Tahiti to Bora Bora private flight, which typically takes around 45 minutes and provides the fastest access to the island’s resorts.
Can charter flights operate at night in French Polynesia?
Night operations in French Polynesia depend on the airport. Tahiti’s Fa’a’ā International Airport (PPT) operates 24 hours and serves as the main international gateway for long-haul arrivals. Bora Bora Airport (BOB) is also technically available outside daylight hours, although late movements are less common due to local handling and boat transfer logistics to the island’s resorts. For this reason, many travellers arriving on late international flights into Tahiti continue onward the following morning with a Tahiti to Bora Bora private flight or charter aircraft to other islands across French Polynesia.
How long is a private flight from Tahiti to Bora Bora?
A Tahiti to Bora Bora private flight usually takes around 45–50 minutes, depending on the aircraft. These short inter-island charter flights depart from Fa’a’ā International Airport (PPT) and arrive at Bora Bora Airport (BOB), offering the most efficient way to reach the island’s resorts and private motu locations.
