Don’t miss your last chance to win a place on a fam trip
Bula means ‘hello’ in Fijian, as well as ‘good health’, ‘life’ and ‘cheers’, and it’s a phrase heard frequently across the islands. Wherever your clients visit, you can guarantee they will be greeted with the famous bula spirit. There are 333 islands in Fiji, and around one-third are inhabited.
Meeting the locals and learning their culture is a key aspect of any trip here, and visitors can take part in a traditional kava ceremony where the national drink, made from the crushed root of a yaqona plant, is tasted as part of a community welcome.
Local markets across the islands are a great way to see craftsmen and women at work making pottery, weaving or carving – a significant aspect of Fijian culture. Cabin crew on Fiji Airways ensure guests will be given a warm welcome from the minute they step on board until they land.
Fly with British Airways via Singapore
British Airways, with connecting hubs across North America and Asia, offers a seamless and hassle-free way to travel to Fiji. Singapore is one of the destinations your customers can transit through before connecting on to a Fiji Airways flight.
British Airways flies direct to Singapore once a day
While they’re there, Gardens by the Bay is a must-see, with ethereal Supertrees reaching up into the sky. For more nature, the Singapore Botanic Gardens are a Unesco World Heritage Site, bursting with thousands of orchids, a rainforest area and serene lakes.
Meanwhile, Sentosa is a family-friendly island, home to theme parks, water parks and other attractions. British Airways flies direct to Singapore once a day and onward flights to Fiji depart once a week in May, and twice-weekly as of June, with codeshare partner Fiji Airways.
