Fiji Airways will launch non-stop service from Dallas-Fort Worth to Nadi, Fiji. This route aligns with the carrier's recent full membership in oneworld and its adoption of American Airlines' AAdvantage as its frequent flyer program. Speculation suggests that Seattle, home to oneworld member Alaska Airlines, may be added as a future destination.
The new service will operate on their Airbus A350 on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Historically, passengers have not earned points flying Fiji Airways except through partners. Most travelers visit Fiji infrequently, choosing the airline primarily for its destination offerings. The airline competes one-stop via Nadi for routes to Australia and New Zealand.
Already an American AAdvantage partner, Fiji Airways offers connections from Australia (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra) and New Zealand (Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington) to Tokyo, Singapore, Taipei, Hong Kong, the United States, and Canada. In North America, it currently serves Los Angeles, San Francisco, Honolulu, and Vancouver.
