Fiji Airways is pulling out of Canberra and will suspend its air connections entirely. The move by the airline marks a clear setback for Canberra Airport.

Following the departure of Fiji Airways, Canberra Airport has taken a major step towards setting up new flight connections to China. Media sources including The Canberra Times, Region Canberra, and Karryon outlined the recent airline changes on 26 August 2026. Fiji Airways will halt its flight schedule, while Canberra Airport progresses plans for the China travel connections.
