Fiji Link (FJA, Nadi) took delivery of its first ATR42-600, DQ-FJY (cn 1014), at a ceremony held in Fiji on September 8. The turboprop is on lease from Nordic Aviation Capital.
“This incoming 600-series ATR 42 is a step-up from the current 500-series that Fiji Link operates," Fiji Airways Group Managing Director and CEO, Stefan Pichler, said. "Following the arrival of this brand new aircraft along with another ATR72-600 for Fiji Link in December, the two current ATR 42-500s will exit the fleet. So overall, we will significantly increase Fiji Link capacity this year with state-of-the-art new ATR aircraft.”
The Fiji Airways (FJ, Nadi) subsidiary took delivery of its first of two ATR72-600s, DQ-FJZ (cn 1146), in June.
