Fiji Air LAX/NAN/LAX
We flew round trip LAX / NAN in September. As most know this is an 11-hour jaunt outbound, a bit less inbound. The angled seats are fine for sitting/lounging but the lack of lie-flat for sleeping is notably negative. Especially uncomfortable for the older set (such as we).
Service was great. Dinner is okay; breakfast is not. The amenity kit is less than the norm but that's fine by my lights since I only ever use the case, and, in this, um, case, it was perfectly serviceable which is to say useful for reuse.
The flight attendants are terrific and help take the edge off this long-haul.
We return to Fiji in April so Fiji Air will have another chance to delight.

A friend travelled SYD NAN SYD on Fiji because it was the cheapest fare in Y. On the way back he said there were no in seat tv's from NAN to SYD and he said it was the longest 4 hours in his life. He wasn't a fan.
I've always found J to be perfectly fine. It's no SQ or Emirates but it's ok for a short trip.
