FIJI Airways Managing Director & CEO Andre Viljoen has announced his airline’s plans to resume twice weekly direct services to Adelaide commencing on 04 Jul.
After three years of no flights between Adelaide and Nadi, FJ’s fourth Australian destination will join Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne, Viljoen revealed to the Fijian Tourism Expo (FTE) opening ceremony last night.
“We’re delighted to relaunch our fourth Australian route [operating Mon and Thu], which will allow us once again to bring our unique Fijian hospitality to South Australia, as well as offer local residents the opportunity to use Fiji as a gateway to other int’l destinations,” he said.
Viljoen also announced the commencement of a flash sale, which kicked off last night, which will see return Economy airfares starting from FJD$899 per person, and return Business from FJD$2,399 per person.
Wearing his other hat as Tourism Fiji Chair, Viljoen said at the country’s current stage of recovery, the most important quality is being open for business, as the next six months of business approach pre-COVID levels.
“We are so proud to see Fiji’s tourism readiness, becoming as world renowned as the country itself,” he said.
“The measures we’ve taken to reopen Fiji’s borders have sent us ahead of dozens of competing destinations.
“Across the tourism industry in Fiji, we are flying out the gates of recovery more committed, more competitive, more service-obsessed, and also more mindful than ever before of tourism’s importance to our country.”
Viljoen was joined on stage by President of Fiji Wiliame Katonivere and Minister for Tourism Faiyaz Koya to welcome delegates to the first in-person FTE in two years – more info Fiji’s recovery on page six.
