“I know that there has been some discussion around that but our focus has been on getting Australia underway. We are very aware of the impact on Fiji’s Tourism. Fiji has done a great job in keeping COVID-19 out.”

Fiji’s push for a travel bubble with New Zealand and Australia has suffered a setback.

However, the Fijian government has proven itself as a safe destination for travellers during the pandemic with no cases reported in the community for more than 359 days.
