Alaska Airlines expands Fiji Airways codeshare pact

Alaska Airlines has strengthened its current codesharing pact with Fiji Airways, offering more connecting flight options from the west coast.

Fiji Airway’s passengers have two more options for connecting flights via San Francisco.

The airline will place its FJ code on Alaska Airlines’ flights from SFO to Seattle and Portland.

Fiji flies from Nadi to San Francisco year-round with two flights a week and three a week in peak season months.

It also serves Los Angeles and Honolulu.

"This codeshare agreement is a major milestone for Fiji Airways as we continue to grow our network and expand our footprint in the region. Our expanded partnership offers guests on our SFO services excellent connections to both cities with a significant population of residents with Fijian roots," said Fiji Airways CEO, Andre Viljoen.

Fiji Air now has 11 codeshare partnerships with airlines around the world.

"Fiji Airways is a fantastic partner of Alaska Airlines, so we’re thrilled to enhance that partnership and provide a hassle-free journey for people connecting to Seattle and Portland," said Charles Breer, Alaska Airlines managing director of alliances.
