Fiji’s tourism sector is showing strong resilience, with forward bookings tracking in line with last year’s peak season despite ongoing global economic and geopolitical pressures.
Tourism Fiji says the country remains fully operational, with stable fuel supply and increasing air capacity from key markets including Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Vancouver ahead of the May to October peak season.
Tourism Fiji CEO Dr Paresh Pant said visitors can continue to travel with confidence.
“Fiji is open for business and operating as normal. Our forward bookings and aviation capacity point to a positive and stable outlook as we move into our peak season,” he said.
Industry activity remains robust, with operators running at strong capacity and two major international television productions currently filming in Fiji, occupying around 600 hotel rooms daily through to late July.
The MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) sector is also performing well, with recent conferences bringing in hundreds of delegates and more expected in the coming months.
Tourism Action Group Chair Damend Gounder said collaboration across industry and government has been key.
“Despite global economic pressures, Fiji’s tourism industry is showing strong resilience, working collectively and proactively to sustain and grow the tourism momentum,” he said.
Authorities say Fiji’s accessibility, proximity to key markets, and reputation for hospitality continue to drive demand as global travellers seek reliable and welcoming destinations.
