And just like that Fiji loyalists are also locked out of domestic lounge access in the US.

Maybe that was their cunning plan!

Save a lot on paying for FF lounge access if they’d gone their own way (or a non-US FF program).

Seems the benefits have kicked in as they should.

We needed to do a seat selection for NAN - MEL for Sunday. Yesterday they were going to charge my wife $FJ17 for her seat (OW Ruby)

Today it is free.

Fiji did not have a ffp. Just a lounge access program

Hawaiian Airlines joins the alliance later this year.​

Once that integration is complete, three major Pacific carriers—Fiji Airways, Alaska Airlines, and Hawaiian Airlines—will be aligned under the same global alliance.

Continue to be amused that so many people/bloggers think HA is an independent airline. Now 100% owned by AS and being (slowly) integrated into AS systems. Will be 1 fpp, 1 reservation system and 1 airline operating certificate. HA just a brand of AS, like QantasLink is a brand of Qantas.
