I don’t currently have live access to the latest news feeds in this moment, but I can summarize what has been reported recently and how Fiji Airways’ flight suspensions have evolved.
Direct answer
- The most recent widely reported waves of suspensions date back to the COVID-19 era, when Fiji Airways extended international flight suspensions multiple times (initially through May/June 2020, then extending further into July and August 2020). More recent updates in 2025–2026 typically involve temporary route adjustments or suspensions tied to fuel costs, operational constraints, or external events, but I don’t have a verified up-to-the-minute status in this chat. For the latest, check Fiji Airways’ official site or major aviation news outlets.
Key context and what to look for
- Official announcements: Fiji Airways press releases or the “News” section on their site. These typically provide exact suspension dates, affected routes, and any plans to resume.
- National/regional aviation news: Local outlets (e.g., Fiji Sun, FBC News, Fiji Village) often report on ongoing schedule changes, border policy impacts, and workforce considerations.
- Industry trackers: Aviation-focused outlets (e.g., Simple Flying, Asia Travel Tips) frequently publish status updates on international suspensions and resumptions.
If you’d like, I can search for the latest specific articles and summarize the current status with citations. I can also pull out which routes are currently affected and any stated timeline for restart—just tell me to proceed.

The suspension will be in place until such time as demand returns.”*
