    Marhaba Lounge

    I took the MRT to Changi Airport, made my way through immigration, and onto the Marhaba Lounge where I had a quick pitstop for lunch.

    I had previously flown Fiji Airways from Honolulu to Adelaide and so I was already familiar with their warm and friendly soft product, albeit in economy. This flight in Business Class was similarly friendly and warm. I was addressed by name and I had an outstanding cabin crew named Bale serving my aisle. Their angled lie flat seat on their A330 isn't industry leading, but I understand their A350s have full lie flat seats. Business Class was completely full on this flight; I think FJ filled the cabin with nonrevs, including my seatmate.

    As for catering, I loved that they had vegetarian options on their menu, and they even offered choices for their appetiser. Execution wise, lunch was good but not outstanding. The (tiny) appetizer and main were served on the same tray; they could have been served in separate courses given this was a long daylight flight. The fish on their signature ika vakalolo was way overcooked. The Indian pre-landing breakfast was tasty and filling.

    FJ362 was the first flight into Nadi that morning, arriving at the ungodly time of 4.10am. I cleared immigration and customs in no time.    Read more
