Australia, New Zealand send evacuation flights to New Caledonia
ai generated text
Australia has sent a request to France for permission to evacuate its stranded tourists, with at least 300 Australian travelers stuck in or near Noumea. The country has finally received clearance from French authorities to send two flights to New Caledonia on Tuesday to pick up stranded Australians. New Zealand is also sending a plane on Tuesday to evacuate 50 of its nationals from Noumea.
We've received clearance for two Australian government-assisted departure flights today for Australian and other tourists to depart New Caledonia.
New Zealanders in New Caledonia have faced a challenging few days – and bringing them home has been an urgent priority for the government.
In co-operation with France and Australia, we are working on subsequent flights in coming days.
