Fiji Airways and WestJet have launched a new codeshare partnership to enhance travel between Canada and the South Pacific. The agreement enables seamless connections across both networks, linking key Canadian cities to Fiji and beyond, while strengthening Fiji Airways’ North American presence through expanded Vancouver services.
The new codeshare partnership between Fiji Airways and WestJet represents a strategic move to strengthen connectivity between Canada and the South Pacific. By integrating their networks under a single booking system, both airlines are simplifying the travel experience for passengers, allowing smoother connections across multiple destinations. This development enhances accessibility to Fiji while reinforcing Vancouver’s role as a key gateway linking North America to the Pacific region.
A significant advantage of the agreement lies in the expanded reach it provides across Canada. With Fiji Airways placing its code on WestJet’s domestic network, travellers from major cities such as Toronto, Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Halifax can now connect more easily to Fiji Airways’ international services. At the same time, WestJet gains access to Fiji Airways’ network beyond Nadi, including destinations across New Zealand. This reciprocal arrangement strengthens both airlines’ market presence while offering passengers greater flexibility and convenience.
The partnership is further supported by Fiji Airways’ increased Vancouver services and the introduction of the Airbus A350 on the route, enhancing both capacity and onboard experience. Combined with growing demand from the Canadian market and strengthening diplomatic and economic ties between the two countries, the agreement positions Fiji as an increasingly accessible destination. Overall, this collaboration reflects a broader effort to expand global connectivity while supporting tourism, trade, and long-term growth across the region.
Founded in 1951, the Fiji Airways Group includes Fiji Airways, Fiji’s international airline, and its wholly owned domestic and regional subsidiary, Fiji Link. Operating from its hubs at Nadi and Suva (Nausori) International Airports, the two carriers serve 36 destinations across 14 countries—including those operated through codeshare agreements and Fiji Link services.
As a full member of the oneworld alliance, Fiji Airways provides connectivity to over 900 destinations worldwide. Its network includes Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong (SAR China), Singapore, India, Japan, Mainland China, Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Vanuatu, and the Solomon Islands.
