Fiji Airways and Solomon Airlines have signed a
codeshare agreement.
The deal, which comes into effect on 30
September 2017 will see both airlines place their respective ‘FJ’
and ‘IE’ codes on each other’s flights between Nadi and Honiara.
Fiji Airways operates between Nadi and Honiara on Saturday
while Solomon Airlines operates between Honiara and Nadi on
Mondays and Tuesdays.
Mr. Andre Viljoen, Fiji Airways Managing
Director and CEO said, “The
region is our home and it makes perfect sense for South Pacific
airlines to work together to offer seamless travel options to our
people and visitors travelling to Fiji and the Solomon Islands.
Through this partnership we’re opening up an important South
Pacific destination – Honiara – to the rest of the world, boosting
their tourism and trade potential. Fiji Airways is proud of its
leading role in the growth of air travel in the South Pacific.”
Brett Gebers, CEO of Solomon Airlines said, “The new codeshare improves
inter-island connectivity in the Pacific and provides Solomon
Islanders with another seamless opportunity to connect with the
USA and beyond. Improving inter island
connectivity is the first step to improving the economy in the
Pacific and we value our relationship with Fiji Airways.”
