AGP Executive Report

Hantavirus Alert in French Polynesia: A traveler flagged as a hantavirus “contact case” briefly stopped at Tahiti’s Faa’a airport on May 7, then continued to Mangareva and onward to remote Pitcairn Island, where she is isolating and being monitored—while French Polynesian border officials have decided she won’t be allowed back into the country. Remote-Island Response: The wider outbreak has pushed emergency measures to extremes, including a British medical team parachuted onto Tristan da Cunha after a case tied to the MV Hondius. Cruise Planning Boost: Oceania Cruises opened reservations for Oceania Aurelia’s late-2027 debut, including two simultaneous 180-day Around-the-World voyages for 2028 and 2029 that feature an overnight stop in French Polynesia (Papeete). Advisor Tools: Air Tahiti Nui launched its Tiare Specialist Program for travel agents, with training and incentives aimed at boosting Tahiti sales. More Flexibility for Travelers: Windstar rolled out a “Peace of Mind Promise” letting eligible guests cancel up to seven days before departure for a future cruise credit.
