Fiji Airways Delays/Cancellations

[Melburnian1]

In the end on Sunday 16, FJ910 and FJ916, respectively the 1400 and 1520 hours SYD - NAN were cancelled. There was only one FJ outbound flight on the route today, so many passengers may have to be rebooked. Not a good start to one's holiday.

FJ930, the very late night 2355 hours MEL up to NAN has also got the boot.

On Monday 17 January, problems continue on the SYD - NAN route with FJ914 and FJ916, respectively the morning 0830 and 1030 hours departures, cancelled. FJ910 at 1430 has also got the gong.

There'll be many disappointed holidaymakers given this is two days of hardly any flights on FJ. The weather at this time of year for that area is often problematic although the threat of a tsunami was even more serious than usual IIRC.

'The Australian' on Tuesday 18 January 2022 says a Tongan volcano erupting was the reason for airline disruption above.

On Friday 8 July 2022, the vast majority of afternoon flights are using runway 25 (east-west) so there are many delays in Sydney.

FJ940 (1415 hours SYD to SUV, not NAN) has B738 DQ-FAH and was in the takeoff queue as at 1614, so likely to be at least 90 minutes late arriving

A359 DQ-FAJ is on the 1315 hours SYD - NAN, FJ910,l still queuing in SYD as at 1636, so very much delayed.
