Suva - Post Report Question and Answers

What is your home city/country? How long is the trip to post from there, with what connections? How easy/difficult is it to travel to this city/country?

East Coast USA. LONG. Did I mention long. The international airport in Fiji is in Nadi, roughly a four-five hour drive around the island or a 30-minute flight from Suva via commuter plane. From Nadi it is about a 12-13 hour flight to LAX. Because of the arrival time in LAX (late morning/early afternoon) all the morning flights to the East Coast have finished so you are doing about a 8-9 hour layover in LAX if you want to take the red eye to NY, IAD, or ATL, and then you have another connection to your final destination. You are looking at about two days of travel time. Take a rest stop in LA and your body and mind will thank you. - Oct 2018
