New Pacific Rim-Inspired Menu and more on Fiji Airways’ Flights

Fiji Airways has unveiled a plethora of upgrades to its onboard experiences, starting with a Pacific Rim-inspired menu on select flights. With the ‘Dine on Demand’ concept, business-class travellers on select long-haul flights will be able enjoy restaurant-quality meals… at their convenience… flying at 35,000 feet. 

Fiji Airways CEO and Managing Director Andre Viljoen said, “Fijian hospitality is at the heart of what we do. This next chapter elevates that promise. With the initial introduction of our new Pacific Rim menu and on-demand dining, we’re delivering a fine-dining restaurant-quality experience in the sky – one that is authentically Fijian, thoughtfully-crafted, and aligned with the evolving needs of today’s traveller.”

An in-flight menu inspired by Pacific Rim

The newly-introduced Pacific Rim-inspired menu reflects Fiji’s unique position on the cultural crossroads of Southeast Asia, Oceania and North America. It blends these regional flavours with sustainably-sourced local Fijian ingredients, resulting in signature dishes like:

1. Grilled Mahi Mahi with Prawn Chilli Oil
2. Hamachi Crudo with Octopus and Ponzu
3. Fijian Chicken Curry
4. Roasted Cauliflower with Pacific Greens and Garlic Cream
5. Kumquat Cheesecake

All dishes are made fresh, plated on-board and then served by cabin crew trained in culinary and wine service.

Fresh Beverages & Other In-Flight Additions

Fresh beverages on the flight complement the ‘Dine on Demand’ concept and include:

1. Fresh cold-pressed juices, made using fruits and vegetables from Fiji.
2. A curated wine list with premium offerings from Australia, New Zealand and California.
3. Signature Fijian cocktails and mocktails, made with locally-distilled Blue Turtle Gin Fiji and Fijian Bati Rum.
4. Locally-produced artisanal Fijian chocolate to pair with tea and coffee.

Additionally, the Business Class tables are decorated with Vau flowers, handcrafted in Fiji, and set with bone china tableware on white cotton tablecloths for that touch of indulgence.

Economy Flyers Get Refreshed On-Board Menu, Too

The elevated flight experience extends to the Economy Class with updated meals, new mocktail and cocktails, new snacks, fresh beverages, and hot chocolate. The airline is also well-positioned to meet special dietary requirements, provided the same is communicated beforehand.

These enhancements to the in-flight experience are designed to delight flyers while giving them a taste of Fijian hospitality in the sky. The experience is one of the many improvements planned to put Fiji Airways at par with industry stalwarts.

“We fly for Fiji,” Viljoen added. “As the national carrier, we recognise the profound role we play in connecting Fiji to the world, and sharing the unique warmth and happiness that only Fiji offers. Through our strategic investments in our food, beverage, service training, and sustainable sourcing of materials, we’re bringing that happiness in every journey.”
