Fiji is set to undertake a review of its aviation laws next year, aimed at modernizing and fortifying these regulations, according to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Tourism and Civil Aviation Viliame Gavoka. During the commemoration of the 45th anniversary of the Civil Aviation Authority of Fiji (CAAF), Gavoka emphasized the importance of this institution, praising its significant contribution to the country’s aviation sector and its role in promoting Fiji as a leader in the Pacific region’s aviation industry.
Gavoka announced that in 2025, a major initiative will focus on strengthening aviation legislation to align with international standards, thereby reinforcing Fiji’s status as a reliable aviation hub in the Pacific. Alongside the legislation review, CAAF is undergoing a rebranding effort to signal Fiji’s commitment to innovation and modernization. This rebranding reflects a proactive strategy to adapt to the changing dynamics of the global aviation landscape while upholding core values such as safety, security, and service.
The government supports CAAF’s transformative journey, recognizing its potential to spearhead progress and innovation in the industry. The Deputy Prime Minister expressed a vision that embraces technological advancements, sustainability, workforce empowerment, and regional excellence.
Gavoka concluded that CAAF’s legacy should not only be seen in its historical achievements but also as a commitment to a future characterized by safety, innovation, and collaboration. This optimistic outlook positions Fiji to enhance its aviation sector significantly, promising a prosperous future for industry stakeholders.
This development presents a bright future for Fiji’s aviation sector, illustrating the government’s dedication to modernization and the fostering of a safer, more efficient air travel environment. By embracing these changes, Fiji is likely to strengthen its reputation as a leading aviation destination in the Pacific region.
