Our suggestion based on current rates and flight times as of  September , 2026

On August 5th    Book a one way flight with Air Fiji  with  service to Nadi, Fiji (NAN) for those traveling from The San Francisco Bay Area. This direct  flight departs San Francisco  at 11:10pm and arrives into Nadi, Fiji at 5:35am.    One option is to arrive a day or two early and stay at a hotel near the Nadi International airport then meet us at the airport  by 6:30am on August 7th.   This would allow you time  to recover from jet lag that you may experience. If you decide to arrive earlier in Fiji,  please take a look at hotels near the Nadi International Airport.  Several of our clients have stayed at the Sailor’s Beach Resort, the Ramada Suites by Wyndham  or The Aquarius  all three located on a beach not far from the Nadi International Airport.  Affordable hotels can be reviewed at Hotels Near Nadi on Booking.com or any search engine you prefer to  use.  Others have extended their stay in Fiji before or after our program  to explore dive  resorts that Fiji is known for.  One suggestion is to review resorts in the Yasawa Islands  accessible from Nadi by  high speed ferry boat.

As flight times may change before August,  we just ask  that you  meet us at the  Nadi Airport  at 6:30am  on August 7th and email us with any flight updates. We have a 3 hour shuttle to our resort along the Coral Coast of Fiji.

On August 11th   Book  a one way flight with Air Fiji, Flight #213  that departs  Nadi (NAN)   at 11:20pm  and arrives into Nuku’alofa, Tonga (TBU)  at 1:45am on August 12th.  Review  online at  Air Fiji  or by calling  800 227 4446

On August 21st  Book a one way flight that departs Nuku’alofa, Tonga (TBU) with  Air Fiji  to Nadi, Fiji  then onward to San Francisco or your mainland destination and can be reviewed  at  Air Fiji.   Air Fiji may partner with American or Alaska Airlines. If you would rather route through New Zealand, you may  contact Air New Zealand   for flight options from Tonga. They may partner with United Airlines. Some clients have explored New Zealand before or after our program.

Please Note: VISA REQUIREMENT IF TRAVELING THROUGH NEW ZEALAND:  Some people choose to include New Zealand in their travels. Even if you are in transit between New Zealand and Tonga or Fiji, you will  need to obtain a NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Authority). Please visit the New Zealand Immigration Site to obtain a NZeTA. It’s an easy process which you should do at least 4 weeks before traveling, although the site states that the turn around time is 72 hours.  Once on the Immigration Site click on  Check If you Need a NZeTA  and then you will request a NZeTA or Visa. The current fee for the NZeTA is $17  in New Zealand currency which is about $10 US. You have the option to take a photo using their camera. We recommend this.
