It is supported by the domestic hubs of Bora Bora, Raiatea and Rangiroa. Today Tahiti-Faa’a International Airport serves ten destinations in Europe, North and South America, Asia and Oceania. It has a strategic role in opening up the 118 islands of French Polynesia, spread over an area equal to Europe, by connecting 41 domestic airports (thanks to the airports of Bora Bora, Raiatea and Rangiroa). Tahiti-Faa’a airport meets all the requirements of international airlines, and is open 24/7. In 2018 it handled 1,390,388 passengers, the majority international tourists. Shareholders: As of 2010 important investments have been made made to improve service levels and ensure facilities are compliant with the most challenging international standards. The final stage of Egis: 19% the investment programme consists of the refurbishment of the passenger terminal building. Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations: 30% French Polynesia: 49% EGIS KNOW-HOW Agence Française de Dévelopement (AFD): 2% As technical partner of choice, Egis supports management of the airport in critical areas from engineering services to airport operations.
