Fiji Airways launching direct flights to Tokyo
Fiji Airways has announced new flights to Japan next July.
The three times weekly service takes off on July 3 to Tokyo Narita Airport using Airbus A330 aircraft for the nine-hour flight.
The service operates on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday each week and is the first direct route to Japan for nine years.
"Our flights have been designed to ensure guests get the most of their time in Fiji. The flight from Narita arrives into Nadi in the morning, with convenient domestic connections on our subsidiary Fiji Link to major tourism spots like Savusavu and Taveuni," said airline CEO Andre Viljoen.
"We want to capitalise on the high interest in outbound travel from Japan, with an estimated 13.4 million Japanese residents travelling overseas so far this year."
Reservations are live for the new flights including special launch fares from Nadi to Tokyo, starting from F$999 when booked by December 12, 2017.
