Fiji Airways is more than an airline; it’s an enabler for travelers to reach remote places on Earth in true style and ultimate comfort.
Fiji Airways’ story began over 60 years ago with domestic routes on a seven-seater Dragon Rapide plane, flying travelers across Fiji island.
Since then, its brand story has grown to offer routes connecting the rest of the world to Fiji and its beautiful shores are now accessible no matter where you are in the world.
Fiji has made it easy for travelers too. A four-month visa is automatically granted on arrival for visitors from almost every country. All you need is a valid passport with at least six months validity and an outbound ticket.
Fiji Airways brings 64 percent of all international travelers to the islands from 23 destinations in 13 countries.
These include Australia, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Singapore, USA and a recently launched direct route between Nadi and Tokyo’s Narita International Airport in Japan.
The new nine-hour flight is operated three times a week on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The service offers over 80,000 seats a year on the ultra-modern Airbus A330-200/-300 planes.
The new flight route bolsters the relationship between Fijians and Japanese people, two nations brimming with unique culture.
But this is just the start of your journey

While Fiji may seem far from everywhere, it only takes three hours to reach New Zealand on a Fiji Airways direct flight and Australia is just an hour more. Fiji could be a long weekend destination for those in neighboring countries, but its lure will make you stay for longer.
Additionally, Fiji Airways also has excellent relationships with fellow airlines, giving it a brilliant bank of codeshare partnerships. These partnerships let you book onward flights through Fiji Airlines, meaning you can earn points and be rewarded for brand loyalty.
The codeshare routes let travelers fly to Central Asia, Europe, and across the US. A full route map can be found here.
The airline has also embarked on becoming the first oneworld connect partner enabling customers to enjoy more services and benefits across an even more extensive global network.
