Air Pacific is set to acquire two Boeing 747-400 aircraft for use on high traffic routes including Sydney and Los Angeles.
The airline’s ceo, John Campbell, said the new aircraft would be introduced in March and June 2003.
He said the carrier's existing 747-200 - leased from 46 per cent shareholder Qantas - would be retired in June.
The additional 747s will be used to offer daily services to Sydney, replacing three weekly 767 services and one 747 service. The new aircraft will also allow Air Pacific to double its flights to Los Angeles to four a week.
A medium-haul aircraft is also expected to join the airline's fleet .
