British Airways and Fiji Airways, Fiji’s National Airline, have announced a new partnership which will open up more routes between London and the South Pacific than ever before.

From today, British Airways will start selling flights between Singapore, Los Angeles and San Francisco and the Fijian gateway of Nadi direct on ba.com.

Fiji is now more accessible as customers in the UK will be able to travel from gateways in the U.S. and Asia to destinations that have previously been more difficult to access from the UK.

For customers, the partnership means an easy one-stop-shop booking experience and allows them to earn Avios loyalty points on both airlines.

Customers can earn Avios points on the Fiji Airways sectors as well as British Airways services, and as always, can choose to cut the cost of flights by using Avios in part payment.

Fiji Airways operates international and domestic services to 12 countries and 31 cities, including Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu, Kiribati, Vanuatu and Solomon Islands, the US, Hong Kong and Singapore.

With its idyllic beaches, world-famous dive sites and lush green forests, Fiji and its extremely popular island destinations, Fiji is very popular among tourists and holiday makers.

For those wanting to escape to the Fijian sun, British Airways Holidays offers seven nights at the 5 star Sheraton Fiji Resort, from £1659 per person, travelling on selected dates in November.

Price includes World Traveller return flights from Heathrow and accommodation with breakfast. Book by June 20. For reservations visit ba.com or call 0844 493 0787.
