While Vanuatu is the pearl of the South Pacific featuring amazing people, wonderful islands and active volcanos, Air Vanuatu may likewise be seen as a pearl in the aviation industry. Operating a fleet of beautifully painted aircraft to include an immaculate ATR 72, it transports the unique island spirit of Vanuatu into the world. The in-flight experience from the passenger's point of view is above average: The crew welcomes you with that naturally inherent smile, warmth and hospitality which makes you feel at home on board. Additionally, the in-flight catering is above world-class level and e.g. in Business Class exceeds the quality levels offered by international competitors like Emirates Airlines in the same class of service. Everything inside and outside of the aircraft is branded the Vanuatu way making it a special airplane. Tanna (sometimes spelled Tana) is an island in Tafea Province of Vanuatu. It is 40 km (25 mi) long and 19 km (12 mi) wide, with a total area of 550 km² (212 sq mi). Its highest point is the 1,084 m (3,556 ft) summit of Mount Tukosmera in the south of the island. Siwi Lake was located in the east, northeast of the peak, close to the coast until mid April 2000 when following unusually heavy rain, the lake burst down the valley into Sulphur Bay, destroying the village with no loss of life. Mount Yasur is an accessible active volcano which is located on the southeast coast. There are three main languages spoken on Tanna: the southern language of Kwamera, the South-Western language adjacent to the slopes of Tokosmera, of which there are many dialects spoken by very small groupings,constitute two of the languages. The remaining majority of Tanna islanders speak four dialects, being North Tanna in the northwest, Lénakel in the west-central area near Lénakel,and the middle bush dialect in the central plateau of the island, which is very close to Lenakel Whitesands in the northeast near Whitesands. These are generally grouped into the Tanna languages family, which is a subgroup of the South Vanuatu languages, an Austronesian language branch. According to Ethnologue, each is spoken by a few thousand, and Lénakel, with 8,000 speakers, is one of the dialects of Vanuatu with the most speakers. Many people on Tanna also speak Bislama, which is one of Vanuatu's three official languages (together with English and French).
