Plans for a new airline servicing the Pacific Islands have been abandoned by New Zealand businessman Mike Pero.

The plan was announced in December last year, but was put on hold in April due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Progress continued when the Cook Islands travel-bubble was announced in May and Pero had hoped Pasifika Air would be operational later this year.
