Aussies stranded due to Air Tahiti Nui cabin crew strike

An ongoing cabin crew strike at Air Tahiti Nui has disrupted multiple flights and stranded many Australian and Kiwi travellers.
The indefinite strike has cancelled Air Tahiti Nui flights to Auckland and upended codeshare services for Qantas customers.
Flights across French Polynesia are also impacted.
It affects connecting flights to Sydney, Brisbane and Perth for those stuck in Tahiti.
Cabin crew walked out over pay and conditions.
“Each customer will be contacted individually as soon as a new departure option is found,” the airline said.
“Our teams are also actively involved in finding accommodation solutions to minimise the inconvenience.”
Full refunds are offered for customers wishing to cancel their tickets.
