Melbourne to Tongatapu
Tonga · 35 months of data from Feb 1998
No positive passenger traffic is recorded for this city pair in the comparable series from January 2003 onward. Earlier passenger figures used a different method: a pairing could appear even when passengers changed flights along the way, so those records do not by themselves prove that Melbourne–Tongatapu was a bookable service in its own right.
