A Fiji Airways flight traveling from Sydney to Nadi experienced severe turbulence today, leading to minor injuries among a passenger and three crew members. The airline confirmed that medical personnel were waiting upon the flight’s arrival in Nadi to assist those affected. Fortunately, all other services continued as per schedule.
This incident highlights the ongoing challenges airlines face due to adverse weather conditions, echoing previous disruptions at Nadi International Airport. Earlier this month, severe weather led to significant operational challenges, with delays and cancellations affecting many flights. During those events, Fiji Airways took prompt measures to support affected passengers with supplementary flight arrangements, demonstrating their commitment to service continuity and passenger safety.
The recent turbulence incident serves to remind travelers of the unpredictability of air travel. However, thanks to swift action from the airline and airport staff, immediate support was made available to those in need.
