Excellent collaboration and partnership is what is needed to propel Fiji’s economy further.

Applauding the partnership between Fiji Airways and Airports Fiji Limited, Attorney-General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum yesterday said the formidable working relationship between the two companies was evident in the growth that both have shown.

The Attorney-General was speaking at the official opening of the Fiji Airways Premier Lounge housed in Airports Fiji Limited’s refurbished and modernised Nadi International Airport terminal.

“What a fantastic product we now have with Fiji Airways in the development of this fantastic lounge,” Mr Sayed-Khaiyum said.

“Fiji Airways is moving forward in strides. We have been criticised for our partnership with Fiji Airways, for our $18 million marketing strategy for Singapore. We’ll now be flying three times a week to Singapore, we’re now going to be flying three times a week to Narita, three times a week to San Francisco, we fly four-five times a week to Hong Kong, almost every day to L.A, we do double daily to Sydney.

“There is no limit to what can happen and to what Fijians can do if we all came together.”

Mr Sayed-Khaiyum called on everyone to support our local businesses and not undermine the amazing capabilities that is there in our communities and in our people.
