Fiji Airways has been recognized as one of the leading international airlines in the world, attaining the 10th position in the 2025 World’s Best Awards conducted by Travel + Leisure. This accolade highlights the airline’s remarkable growth and commitment to quality service, particularly following its full membership in the oneworld alliance in April 2025, which has helped expand its global footprint.
Outgoing Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Andre Viljoen expressed great pride in this recognition, emphasizing the dedication of the airline’s team to infuse their services with the warmth and spirit of Fiji. “This recognition reflects the heart of our incredible team, bringing warmth, happiness, and the true spirit of Fiji to every journey,” Viljoen stated.
The airline’s success comes on the heels of other major achievements, including becoming an APEX 5-star rated airline for the third consecutive year. This status places Fiji Airways among an elite group of only 40 airlines globally, representing the top 7% of carriers based on impartial feedback from millions of passengers. The recent APEX accolades coupled with the airline’s various regional awards underscore its commitment to enhancing passenger experiences and operational excellence.
As Fiji Airways continues to innovate and expand its services, including the upcoming non-stop flights to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport set to launch in December 2024, it solidifies its reputation on the global stage. These exciting developments reflect a promising future for the airline and offer travelers a unique opportunity to experience the rich hospitality of Fiji during their journeys.
In light of recent milestones, Fiji Airways is not only a source of pride for its passengers but also a beacon of resilience and excellence in the aviation sector, inspiring hope for continued growth within the industry.
