AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
If connecting between international and domestic (Fiji Link) flights, budget extra time to walk between terminals and clear immigration/customs and security again.
Fiji Airways-to-Fiji Airways international connections on a single ticket often use a dedicated transit desk, which speeds things up compared to a full immigration process.
Outer-island domestic flights on small ATR aircraft can be affected by weather delays, so avoid the tightest possible connection if heading to islands like Taveuni or Savusavu.
The terminal is small with limited seating and food options, so don't expect much beyond a couple of cafes and duty-free shops airside.
Baggage is usually checked through on interline and codeshare itineraries with Fiji Airways, but always confirm at check-in given the terminal separation.

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
The International and Domestic terminals are separate single-story buildings connected by a short outdoor or covered walkway of roughly 300-400 meters. Passengers connecting from international to domestic flights (or vice versa) must exit through immigration/customs and re-clear security at the domestic terminal, as there is no airside link between the two buildings.
