The beach is calling.

Thanks!
From the U.S., three airlines serve Papeete, Tahiti (PPT).

Air Tahiti Nui and Air France fly nonstop to/from LAX while Hawaiian flies nonstop to/from HNL.

Air France is a member of SkyTeam so you should be able to use DL Skymiles if you have them.

Air Tahiti Nui also allows one to redeem DL Skymiles as well as AA AAdvantage miles for travel to/from PPT.

It appears at the present time you may not be able to use OnePass miles for travel to Tahiti. Air New Zealand, a Star Alliance carrier, served Papeete at one point but I think they now codeshare with Air Tahiti Nui for all service to/from Tahiti.
