Nausori International Airport (IATA: SUV, ICAO: NFNA), also known as Luvuluvu, is the secondary international airport in Fiji, behind Nadi International Airport. It is situated in Nausori on the southeastern side of Viti Levu, Fiji's main island. Nausori Airport is roughly 23 km (14 mi) (approximately a 45-minute drive) from Fiji's capital city, Suva. It was first constructed by U.S. Navy Seabees in 1942.
As of 2018, a 20-year master plan was under preparation for Nausori Airport, expected to include a complete refurbishment and upgrade of the airport, creating a facility for the international passengers and a domestic hub for Fiji.[2]
At one time Air Pacific (now Fiji Airways) had its headquarters on the property of the airport.[3] A $60 million project to extend and widen the runway to 2,148 m was completed in 2021.[4]
