Fiji Airways and Air India have signed a new codeshare agreement which will provide convenient connections between three Indian cities and Fiji.
From 1 August, guests of both airlines can seamlessly connect from Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai to Fiji via Hong Kong or Singapore.
The agreement will allow Fiji Airways to place its ‘FJ’ designator code on flights operated by Air India from the three Indian cities to Hong Kong and Singapore. It also allows Air India to place its ‘AI’ designator code of Fiji Airways flights from Hong Kong and Singapore to Nadi, Fiji.
Fiji Airways managing director and CEO, Andre Viljoen said: “We’re delighted to add Air India to our growing list of international airline partners, and look forward to welcoming their guests onboard with our renowned hospitality and service onboard.
“With our direct services from Hong Kong and Singapore to Nadi, there really is no better way for Indian visitors to travel to Fiji from three of their largest cities. Equally, our guests from Fiji and the South Pacific will have many more options to connect to Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai for leisure, business and medical travel on Air India.”
Air India commercial director, Meenakshi Mallik said: “We are happy to establish codeshare partnership with Fiji Airways thereby expanding our network and offering wider connectivity to our esteemed passengers.
“This partnership launches Air India’s first services into Nadi, Fiji which will offer connectivity to Air India’s esteemed passengers travelling between India and Fiji over Singapore and Hong Kong.”
