The FINANCIAL — Fiji Airways, Fiji’s National Carrier, and American Airlines are strengthening their codeshare agreement to include more cities in the United States, as well as a significant international connection, London’s Heathrow Airport (LHR).
The extended agreement allows for convenient connections when flying between Fiji, across the U.S. and the United Kingdom, according to Fiji Airways.
“This extended codeshare agreement is a truly remarkable achievement for Fiji Airways. Just as important, it allows more of American’s customers to visit our home, Fiji, and seamless access our network in the South Pacific,” said Fiji Airways Managing Director & CEO, Andre Viljoen.
Fiji Airways will add eight (8) new codeshare destinations to and from Los Angeles and seven (7) destinations connecting to and from San Francisco (SFO). This gives customers traveling on Fiji Airways’ non-stop flights from LAX and SFO better access to major U.S. cities such as: Atlanta, Nashville, Portland, Philadelphia, Seattle, Dallas, New York, Miami, Phoenix, and more. In total, the codeshare agreement now provides the customers of Fiji Airways with accessibility to 38 cities across the U.S and, for the first time, the United Kingdom, via American Airlines.
American Airlines customers also gain new codeshare service on Fiji Airways between SFO and Nadi, Fiji (NAN). Members of the AAdvantage program can earn and redeem miles on all Fiji Airways flights.*
