International airlines including national carrier Air Pacific, Air New Zealand and V-Australia have all announced flights in and out of Nadi will resume today albeit on delayed schedules.

Tourism Fiji chief executive officer Josefa Tuamoto said while the north-east region of the Fiji islands was affected by Cyclone Tomas, the bulk of the country’s tourism plant located on the big island of Viti Levu (Coral Coast, Denarau, Nadi and Pacific Harbour) and in the nearby Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands had escaped unscathed.

It has also been confirmed that no tourist was injured and damage has been minimal according to reports from resort operators.

“Any inconvenience this situation has incurred for our international visitors has thus far been kept to an absolute minimum, particularly on Viti Levu and in the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands which have not been affected by Tomas.

“Disruption to services in these areas has been limited with the exception of local cruise schedules and inter-island ferry and flight services all of which had been placed on hold until further notice,” Tuamoto added.
