Friday 26 April's FJ930, the very late night (2340 hours) MEL - NAN redeye has been altered to depart at the unattractive hour of 0330 on Saturday 27. This is due to FJ931, the scheduled 2225 hours arrival being expected at gate at 0215 tomorrow morning.

Late running at FJ continues with Sunday 28 April's FJ915 from NAN to SYD, the 1830 hours airborne at 1913 (B738 DQ-FJG) likely to arrive at 2137 tonight, 42 late.

On an extremely wet Tuesday 4 June 2019 in Sydney, the early morning 0615 hours SYD up to NAN FJ914 (B738 DQ-FJN) did not take off until 0909 hours, so arrival is not expected until 1452, 162 minutes behind schedule.
 
Sunday 7th of July sees FJ941 SUV-SYD (B737 DQ-FJF) divert to BNE. This will delay FJ940 SYD-SUV departure to 13 30, 120 min behind schedule.
 
With bad weather in MEL (heavy rain and some hail, latter not in every suburb), FJ931, the Wednesday 10 July 2019 scheduled 1850 hours NAN - MEL that took off ahead of time at 1858 with A332 DQ-FJO is arriving at 2330 hours, 65 late. It had to hold above Mt Buller for a couple of lengthy racetrack circuits.
 
Saturday 24th of August's B738 DQ-FJN's initially as FJ935 NAN-MEL arrived to gate at 14 16, 71 min late. The return leg as FJ934 was airborne at 15 44, arrival is suggested at 22 00, 70 min behind schedule.

On Wednesday 27 November 2019, FJ910, the afternoon scheduled 1320 hours SYD up to NAN (A332 DQ-FJV) was in teh sky at 1507 hours, so mooted arrival is 88 minutes behind the schedule at 2043 hours local time.
 
It appears FJ910 SYD-NAN is routinely ~ 1 hour late.It was 55 minutes late on 12/12 when we were on it.Aircraft was at the gate early,boarded a little late the sat on the plane for 45 minutes before taking off at 1405.
Our son and his family had exactly the same experience 21/12.
We had been watching the arrival time for the flight from 16/12 to 20/12 when we were staying at Momi Bay as it's flight path had it flying past our bure on descent into NAN.However arrival time on those days was between 2014 and 2027 being after dark.

Definitely something to consider especially if you are connecting through to LAX on FJ810. Only 150 minutes connection time if the flight is punctual

The inbound FJ915 (B738 DQ-FAH) on Saturday 15 January 2022 from NAN to SYD was punctual, arriving at 1848 hours, 32 minutes realy.

However on Sunday 16, SYD to NAN FJ914, the 0830 hours, is expected to depart at 1100. I don't know if this is due to tsunami-related worries in Fiji given Tonga experienced those large waves in the last 36 or so hours.

FJ910, the 1400 hours SYD - NAN is also delayed, being expected to push back three hours late.
