With around 205 million US dollars, Fiji is taking the state carrier under the wings. This was also hit hard by the corona pandemic.
Fiji Airways gets support: The government is standing by the ailing carrier with a financial injection. The equivalent of 205 million US dollars were made loose in order to get the airline through this crisis as safely as possible. Fiji is suffering massively from the loss of sales caused by the crisis and can hardly survive without government aid.
This decision was made after taking a closer look at the company's situation. In addition, one does not want to see more employees leave. Most recently, the airline sent nearly 800 employees home, like ch-aviation.com reported.
