New Caledonia is now Air Vanuatu's second largest tourist market after Australia.
The executive officer of Air Vanuatu, Joseph Laloyer, says New Zealand had been the number two market but promotions of Vanuatu and the airline in New Caledonia have sparked an increase.
Mr Laloyer says New Caledonian tourists are bigger spenders compared with Australians and New Zealanders.
Earlier this week, Air Vanuatu announced that it increased the number of flights a week from three to four.
