Fiji Airways have announced there initial Airbus A330-200 schedule. The new Airbus A330-200's will operate short haul flights to Australia and New Zealand before they are put on the longer services to Los Angeles and Hong Kong. Brisbane will be the first Australia port to see them. FJ923/922 will be operated by the new Airbus A330-200's five to six times a week from April 21 through to July 31. Unfortunately for Brisbane spotters, this service arrives and departs in darkness making photography impossible.

Auckland will be the first destination to see them from April 21 through to August 31, operating daily and later decreasing to four to five flights per week. Sydney will see them from June 8 operating six times a week, reducing to three to four flights a week, the Airbus A330s will most likely become a permanent switch for Sydney, replacing existing Boeing 747-400 services. Melbourne will see them from August 3 to August 27 twice a week. From early July they will begin to operate longer flights to Los Angeles and Hong Kong.
