On Thursday (November 30, 2023), Fiji Airways announced the launch of new direct service between Nadi International Airport and La Tontouta International Airport in Noumea, New Caledonia. The route will now be operated twice weekly on Mondays and Thursdays, and have been timed to seamlessly connect to onward global connections.
In Thursday’s announcement, Fiji Airways’ Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Andre Viljoen, said,
“I’m delighted to welcome New Caledonia to the growing list of international destinations that Fiji Airways serves out of our hub in Nadi. There is a growing demand for connectivity across the Pacific and indeed the world, and we stand ready to fill this need when and where possible. New Caledonia being a French territory, there is a lot of traffic between France and Noumea. We are in a unique position to provide seamless travel options via our flights to North America and Asia and codeshare thereon. We have also vastly enhanced regional connectivity, offering the most comprehensive network across the Pacific with regular flights and seamless onward connections.”
With the added service to Noumea, Fiji Airways now offers nonstop service to 26 international destinations. New Caledonia is Fiji Airways’ third new market introduced since international borders opened in December 2021, following the global COVID-19 pandemic. Fiji Airways carries 70 percent of all travelers to Fiji, and is also the largest foreign exchange earner for the Fijian economy.
