Nadi Airport

Arrived in Nadi from AKL 16 Feb have noticed that many parts of the terminal upgraded. A bigger immigration hall thus quicker clearance. Got out within 20 minutes. Departed NAN 23 Feb a bigger done-up check-in area with air-con makes it very pleasant for both staff and travellers. No ATMs on the airside which was a downer. If you have time would recommend eating before arriving at the airport as the foodcourt is very small. One tip catch the public bus to downtown Nadi FJD 0.70 one-way cheap as! Bus stop located right outside the main-entrance into the terminal.

Not a bad airport. The smell of frangapani flowers and burning cane is a great introduction to Fiji. Unfortunately in the rain the covered walkways can get a bit wet but there's really not very far to go. Immigration is quite quick. Getting your departure tax paid before you leave is a bit annoying but not too troublesome. This airport used to be something of a hub between the US and Australia but now really just serves the tourism market. Nonetheless I like it it's quite functional even if it's not all air conditioned. Signage could be a little bit better. Some areas have recently been upgraded. Food options in the terminal are extremely limited: eat before you arrive.
