Fiji Airways have put on an extra 3 flights in December NAN/LAX (using 273 seats A332 - 24C+249Y) but strangely, nothing seems to connect with the flight at NAN, except a 737 (-700 or -800) from BNE.
Was looking last week & the new NAN/LAX services connected with 737 from MEL, but since then, the schedule has changed & instead of 2 x 737 flights MEL/NAN, FJ have 1 x A330 MEL/NAN on that day.
So maybe the extra flights are aimed squarely at yanks/Canucks ?
(realise busy time & they don't have aircraft just sitting around & probably the only time that could put on extra flight, as aircraft can't be in 2 places at once)
The flight arrives in LAX, the day before it departs NAN, just like a number of flights to HNL.
Just had a look & it appears the extra NAN/LAX have almost no bookings, so you'd think the flights to LAX would be cheap, BUT, the flights OZ/NAN in DEC seem to be very full already, or airline is hoping that people will pay high fares to Fiji in December.
