Services Provided To Norfolk Island
Norfolk Island's Norfolk Jet Express and Norfolk Air have chartered Air Nauru to fly its services Norfolk Island to Brisbane, Newcastle, Melbourne, and Sydney. Norfolk Jet Express went out of business on 4 June 2005 and ceased using Air Nauru's services. Norfolk would soon get a government operated airline, called Norfolk Air, but with no planes of its own, Qantas would then operate the flights from 11 June 2005 using Air Nauru's Boeing 737 VH-RON . . This arrangement naturally ceased later that year when VH-RON was seized, due to Air Nauru's own financial problems. Other airlines filled the gap for Norfolk Air, but Air Nauru again started providing aircraft for Norfolk Air flights in April 2009. The Norfolk government is shutting down Norfolk Air in March 2012, with an agreement that Air New Zealand will take over similar Norfolk Island flights, operating in its own name.

Famous quotes containing the words services and/or island:
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a woman’s services are due.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Your kind doesn’t just kill men. You murder their spirits, you strangle their last breath of hope and freedom, so that you, the chosen few, can rule your slaves in ease and luxury. You’re a sadist just like the others, Heiser, with no resource but violence and no feeling but fear, the kind you’re feeling now. You’re drowning, Heiser, drowning in the ocean of blood around this barren little island you call the New Order.”
—Curtis Siodmak (1902–1988)
