Papeete, April 1st, 2026

The results of the 14th edition of the Leisure Lifestyle Awards were announced today by the renowned Global Traveler magazine. Once again, Air Tahiti Nui has been named « Best Leisure Airline ». This is the sixth time that the Polynesian company has received this award since 2019.

This award, issued annually by Global Traveler, is based entirely on readers' opinions. These passionate and discerning travelers vote annually for the best companies in global tourism across various categories: hotels, airports, travel industry brands, and airlines from around the world. These awards are a testament to the highest form of recognition: approval from travelers themselves.

For the Air Tahiti Nui teams, this award represents a meaningful achievement. It honors years of dedication to quality onboard service and to crafting the sincere human experience the airline strives to deliver to each customer. With Air Tahiti Nui, the journey begins long before you reach your destination. 

From the moment they step aboard the Tahitian Dreamliners, passengers are embraced by the warmth of Polynesian hospitality, setting the tone for an authentic journey to The Islands of Tahiti. 

The awards ceremony of the 2026 Leisure Lifestyle Awards organized by Global Traveler will be held on April 20 in Miami.

 

Each award received is a source of pride and motivation for Air Tahiti Nui teams, who are determined to continue building, one trip at a time, the bond between French Polynesia and the rest of the world.
