This flight makes it easy to go from Dallas to Fiji
Malolo Island, Fiji

Last December, Fiji Airways launched a direct route from Dallas Forth Worth International Airport (DFW) to Nadi International Airport (NAN) in Fiji. The route flies three times weekly, on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, aboard an Airbus A350-900 XWB aircraft. Not only does that offer Americans quick access to the island nation, but it also connects Nadi to DFW’s over 250 international destinations. Additionally, with Fiji Airways recently joining the AAdvantage Program, those who usually fly with American or other oneworld Alliance members can now earn miles and points.
