In other news, American Airlines has introduced additional inventory on Fiji Airways through its frequent flyer program, American AAdvantage. According to reports, awards for a business class flight between Los Angeles (LAX) and Nadi, Fiji (NAN) were found costing up to 405,000 AA miles instead of the published rate of 80,000 miles for a saver award. It was clarified that this is not a price increase and does not affect the availability of saver inventory priced at 80,000 points.
