Fiji Airways has become the newest full member of oneworld® alliance, with a suite of benefits available to guests effective from today, 1 April 2025.

Fiji Airways will now provide top-tier customers a full suite of oneworld benefits as a full member airline, including:
Access to a network of nearly 700 airport lounges globally, including recently opened oneworld branded lounges in Amsterdam’s Schiphol and Seoul’s Incheon airports
Priority check-in and boarding

Andre Viljoen, Managing Director and CEO of Fiji Airways, said: “Becoming a full member of the oneworld alliance is a proud and momentous milestone for Fiji Airways. This achievement reflects our commitment to providing world-class service and expanding our global reach, while showcasing the warmth and hospitality of Fiji to the world.”
“As a full member, we are excited to offer our customers even greater benefits and seamless connectivity across the extensive oneworld network. We look forward to welcoming more oneworld customers onboard to experience the beauty of Fiji and the exceptional service of Fiji Airways.”
On social media, Viljoen added: “This milestone represents our commitment to providing world-class service while expanding connectivity for our customers across the globe.”
“This wouldn’t have been possible without the dedication of our Fiji Airways team and the strong partnerships we’ve built within the alliance. To our oneworld partners—Vinaka!
“We’re excited for this new chapter and can’t wait to welcome even more travelers to experience the warmth of Fiji and our renowned hospitality. We’re ready to connect more people to the heart of the Pacific—and beyond.”
Based out of Nadi International Airport, Fiji Airways serves 25 destinations in 14 countries and territories globally, including oneworld hubs in Sydney, Hong Kong and Tokyo and its newest global destination, Dallas-Fort Worth, further connecting the airline to the oneworld network.
Nat Pieper, CEO of oneworld said: “The introduction of Fiji Airways marks an important strategic step for our alliance as we connect even more people, places and experiences than ever before. Fiji Airways customers will benefit from oneworld’s global reach of more than 900 destinations, priority services and premium lounge access, and we’re thrilled to welcome them to the oneworld family.”
Fiji Airways has also adopted the American Airlines award-winning AAdvantage® travel rewards program as their frequent flyer program, ensuring its most frequent travellers can now enjoy all the benefits of oneworld alliance as AAdvantage® members.
Fiji Airways commenced service on 1 September 1951. The carrier now boasts a fleet of 23 state-of-the art aircraft, including its flagship A350-900s.
Fiji Airways continues to be recognised for its excellence, earning a Five Star Major Airline rating from APEX for the third consecutive year and multiple Skytrax 2024 awards, including Best Airline, Best Business Class Onboard Catering, and Best Cabin Crew in Australia/Pacific.
As part of its oneworld integration, Fiji Link joins as an affiliate airline, further expanding the alliance’s reach with domestic services across Fiji and regional connections to Tonga, Samoa, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu.
