A new unbundled pricing structure from Fiji Airlines will provide passengers in economy class with more alternatives and flexibility when booking their flights. The new pricing structure allows customers to select from four travel categories, including ‘Light,’ ‘Value,’ ‘Comfort,’ and ‘Plus,’ when using the innovative ‘Fly Your Way’ idea. Other features include the ability to amend or cancel a ticket, priority and checked baggage, seat selection, and more.
All options include carry-on luggage up to 7kgs, in-flight meals and beverages, and entertainment. The ‘Fly Your Way’ tickets can be purchased through the Fiji Airlines website or a travel agency once they go on sale on March 3, 2023.
“Our research revealed that the ability to change and refund airline tickets is the most critical element for Australian travellers right now, and with our new ‘Fly Your Way’ fare options, passengers can book additional flexibility when travelling with Fiji Airways,” Andre Viljoen, managing director and CEO of Fiji Airways, commented.
