Fiji Airways Airbus A350 New Economy Class ! 🇺🇸 Los Angeles LAX to Sydney SYD 🇦🇺 FLIGHT REPORT

[@fuadalizadeh5833]

i have never flown with them , buy i have heared very highly and proudly about them and their very good flights and services

[@Delete_The_Elite]

I did this flight coming back to Australia. The crew and service on Fiji airways was really good very underrated airline

[@tuimasitawake]

Our national pride and joy. To date, the airline operates a total of four A350-900. I absolutely love flying on this aircraft because of the leg room, even the normal economy seat. I stand at 6ft 4 and avoid traveling on the smaller B737 Max for this reason. The airline also has a fleet of A330 which also fly this same route. Awesome cabin crew service.

[@pokaquentinvagi2443]

Best Pacific islands airlines ever☝💪👍

[@lanietamaiwaqa6275]

Thank you for show casing our national carrier it would also be nice to film how the crew speak to you and talk to guest to have a feel of the level of service as well, other than that vinaka!

[@JontePlaysThis]

i might be very late but, i love ur trippreport, att det faktiskt är en bra svenne som gör sånt här är magiskt.

[@blacksugarcane]

I travel on fiji airways atleast once year. There service is good for small airline. I'm looking forward to there new service starting November 25 from Vancouver to Nadi nonstop 😀. I dont have to fly to Los Angeles anymore to catch my flight to Fiji.

[@SwedishFlyer]

Thanks for sharing

[@andriitravel1150]

Good travel report!

[@gunvaldsandhaland7757]

Love theA350.Have not fly on Fiji Airways jet.Great work

[@Dragflyer9669]

I used to fly on Fiji Airways to and fro Singapore and Nadi. The cabin crew were amazing. Up to today, Fiji Airways has a special place in my heart. I always wanted to experience its A350 products and service, hopefully I get that opportunity soon. That's a really comprehensive vlog with wonderful footage.

[@SwedishFlyer]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@steph8022]

Enjoy your time here in Australia 🐨

[@danielonn2002]

I am staying at the Hilton LAX the day before my flight as I love watching planes! I booked the Corner Runway King Room!

[@JeanClaudeCOCO]

They have new a350 for long haul flying. I didn’t know much about them until recently but it looks highly commendable and they are safe, food is decent and they take you to paradise. What’s more can you ask for? I never thought of using them to go to Australia or New Zealand for that matter from the US. They’re now an option.

[@SwedishFlyer]

You won’t regret! Cheers

[@Dainus77]

Fantastic video. No rambling chatter; no "hey guys, what's up look at me, I'm flying today" rubbish - just a good clean flight video. Great job. 👍 I'll be doing this flight myself in a few weeks but Syd to Lax instead. It's good to know what I'm in for when I do the return journey later on 🙂

[@SwedishFlyer]

Glad you liked this FR, hope you have a great experience with FJ!

[@fecardona]

Agree. No Sam Chui nuisance here 👍🏻

[@thanatsakorn340]

I totally agree with you. From Thailand....heheh

So true, travel vloggers are among the most insufferable twats

[@Tigers529]

I am the exact opposite. I want to know what I’m looking at where the check-in is your opinion on the seat etc

[@TripReportaviation]

I prefer the first A350 to the second one because it was newer and more modern. I'd love to try Fiji Airways in the future.

[@krzysztofzalewski3357]

"A final flaps inspection carried out by the two flying expert" its the best comment I ever saw on flighting channels.😀

Gracias @Swedish Flyer, estaba con algunas dudas sobre esta ruta desde Los Ángeles con escala en Nadi, luego de ver el video tomé la decisión de hacer esta ruta en próximos días.

[@SwedishFlyer]

Es una excelente opción por tema de precio para llegar a Australia-Nueva Zelanda, saludos!

[@sunsetusa343]

Great video small islands nation, but huge jumbo airplane.

[@jasontempest4233]

Cairns🌴 Queensland here. Great images of Tom Bradley Terminal and landing in Sydney. I've been to Tom Bradley terminal in LAX many times but for some reason I can never remember the experience. Currently the quickest way from Cairns to Los Angeles is "Cairns--->Brisbane--->Los Angeles" or "Cairns---->Auckland---->Los Angeles" as Cairns has no direct flights to North America yet. "Cairns---->Nadi---->Los Angeles" via Fiji Airways would be slightly quicker but as yet Fiji Airways does not fly to Cairns. There has been some talk of Qantas starting a "Perth--->Cairns--->Los Angeles" route, which would give Cairns a direct service to LAX but it's just talk at this stage.

[@SwedishFlyer]

I hope your city gets that connection, would be great for north of Australia

[@SeaDisney1]

[@TraveleRS01]

Muy linda esa aproximación a Sydney. Espero algún día poder hacer ese mismo viaje. 👍

[@jennyhenningham4100]

Have flown SYD-NAN (or return) three times in the newest A350-900 and one trip in an old 737. The Airbus is so much better, even in economy class, than the Boeing. That will teach me not to take a different flight than I usually do. As always cabin crew are wonderful. If you are going to Fiji for a holiday you really feel it has started as soon as the flight commences.

[@manuelvalencia9407]

[@MultiSUPERLATIVO]

Hello folks. The impressive spotting place at In-N-Out Burger in the beginning of the video. Also the new queen of the skies (Boeinf 787 Dreamliner), instead of the Jumbos (747s). 4:42 Such a great deal of work to maintain this huge airport spotless, so clean! 6:14 Lucky people who manage to fly while sitting in this front row. The space is just phenomenal for Economy class! 6:44 There is a great sociologist and philosopher called Zygmunt Bauman who wrote about "liquid modernity", which also tells us about this huge amount of liquid information, non-touchable goods like this incredible amount of footage that one can see through the cameras. I remember those days when there was no IFE in the back of the seats. I am not very sure, but I used to relax more back then, upon boarding the plane. We took more attention to the fellow passengers boarding, to the window views, to FAs. Now we have our mobile phone to check, the camera to adjust, the screen to watch what's going on on the ground under the plane and what is going on up on the tail fin. Now, too much information for the brain to process.

[@SwedishFlyer]

Great analysis, I’m a Bauman reader too btw, cheers!

[@Saa42808]

Brilliant landing 👍

Thank you for sharing you trip. Hahaha! You made me laugh see the aircraft land there at LAX from the street level. I have done the same thing there at LAX before taking the many flights that I had.

[@LMays-cu2hp]

So, I take it that this flight was going on to Fiji after stop in Sydney and you got a better fare on this airline instead of flying Quantas Airlines. Or you had more points on Fiji Airline?

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Looks like your flight had a First Officer who was a nice lady!!!!

[@LMays-cu2hp]

Those long-haul flight you need more space to relax! Were you able to get an upgrade to the Exit Row seating area at Exit Door or Business Class upgrade?

[@marcpappas4334]

Hello, very detailed and informative. I see they have pretty lightweight carryon/personal item restrictions (15 lbs). Did you observe them actually weighing anyone's carry on item to make sure it was 15lbs or less anytime before boarding? I'll wear a ScotteVest just in case, but thought I'd ask someone who recently flew this route to be safer. Thanks!!

[@SwedishFlyer]

Hi, on both flights didn’t see anyone ensuring this restriction was complied, I hope you don’t face any problem on that flight, cheers!

[@haroldlipschitz9301]

I really don't understand the arrival time into NAN from LAX. How are people supposed to check into hotels arriving at 5:30 AM?

[@SwedishFlyer]

That’s a good point, my guess is FJ rather to prioritize their connecting passengers to AUZ-NZL that makes the biggest portion of their pax. Cheers!

[@fjphoto23]

Most hotels provide early check-in for custoners arriving this early. Fiji being a tourist destination, things are organised to cater for this important market.
