Fiji Airways is marking 75 years in the skies with a 'Thank You' Global Sale aimed squarely at Australian travellers — and the pricing is aggressive. Return economy fares from Australia start at $639 to Fiji, $999 to Honolulu and $1,059 to Los Angeles, with bookings open until 3 November 2026.
The standout isn't just the Fiji price. Because the sale covers nine destinations beyond Nadi and Suva, it effectively turns Fiji into a stopover on the way to North America and Asia. From Australian departure cities, the via-Fiji return fares include Singapore from $909, Honolulu from $999, Los Angeles from $1,059, Japan from $1,149, San Francisco from $1,199, Hong Kong from $1,229 and Vancouver from $1,799. Tonga ($679) and Samoa ($759) also feature for anyone eyeing a Pacific hop.
There's a baggage catch worth checking before you click. The cheapest Fiji, Samoa and Tonga fares are Lite tickets with 7kg of carry-on only — no checked bag. The longer-haul Value fares to Asia and North America include a checked bag up to 30kg, which matters when you're flying that distance. All advertised economy fares come with meals, drinks, in-flight entertainment and the 7kg carry-on.
Fiji Airways is a oneworld member, so the sale fares slot into a broader alliance network, and the airline isn't standing still in Australia: it has confirmed a new route between Western Sydney International and Nadi from March 2027, adding another departure point to its local footprint.
Why it matters: Fiji is already one of the easiest and most popular short-haul holidays from Australia, so a sub-$650 return removes most of the excuse not to go. But the more interesting play is the routing. A single ticket via Fiji to Los Angeles or Honolulu can undercut or at least challenge the usual nonstop fares, with a bonus island stopover thrown in. Just weigh up the total travel time and connection options against direct flights before committing — a cheap fare with a long layover isn't always the better holiday.
If you're pricing a US trip or a family Fiji break, the 3 November 2026 booking deadline gives this sale a hard end point, and departure-city availability and travel dates will vary. For travellers who've been putting off a Pacific holiday, this is a reasonably painless entry point.
