Thanks for the additional information. I had 2 J award seats booked HNL-CXI-NAN//NAN-SYD for last month but later canceled them for other options.

I have flown through NAN on a paid JF ticket. The Airport is nice, Fiji water is inexpensive there. It is a little different though that there is only one gate that takes you to an outdoor corridor to the plane at boarding height and a quick search of carry-on bags before boarding. I agree the lounge is nice too, sans the showers.
