Fiji Airways, set to become a full oneworld member and adopt American Airlines' AAdvantage as its loyalty program, will launch non-stop service from Dallas – Fort Worth to Nadi, Fiji on December 10. The new route has been introduced with significant award availability for business class seats.

Starting December 31, there is notable award availability for business class seats on this flight. The Airbus A350 features Fiji Airways’ new business class. Most days that the flight operates have award availability for two or more passengers in business class.
Availability remains strong when searching for four business class award seats.
Booking options include:
- Alaska Airlines: 75,000 miles each way for this flight. Their award chart is distance-based, so additional flights can increase the cost. Bilt points transfer to Alaska.
- American Airlines: 80,000 miles each way for this flight, including connecting space to and from Dallas. This can also be booked as a connection onward to Australia or New Zealand.
- British Airways: 92,750 Avios each way plus surcharges of about $25 to Fiji and nearly $200 on the return. American Express, Chase, Capital One, and Bilt all transfer to BA.
- Qantas: 94,900 points each way plus surcharges. American Express, Capital One, and Citi all transfer to Qantas; Capital One currently offers a 20% transfer bonus.
Even if travelers are not interested in Fiji itself, they can pair this route with onward connecting flights to Australia (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra) and New Zealand (Auckland, Christchurch, Wellington).
