Suspended services include flights from the Nadi and Suva hubs to Labasa, Taveuni, Savusavu, Kadavu, Vanuabalavu, Lakeba, Cicia, Koro and Rotuma.

Fiji Airways Group chief executive Andre Viljoen says the majority of their customers understand that these measures are necessary to combat the spread of COVID-19.

Vijeon says they stand ready to assist if charter flights are required for the freight of essential supplies to Vanua Levu and outer islands.

He says customers holding bookings for flights which are now suspended can rest assured that their bookings are safe.

Fiji Link will announce the resumption of domestic services after approvals from authorities.
