It did return some itineraries, but the ECONOMY pricing ranges from $3500 to $6000. I just simply can't believe it. Can a roundtrip to ANYWHERE on the globe in all-Economy class possibly be worth that much $$$??? It's stupefying!! Guess I'll just stick with the good ol' Caribbean....

BTW-This was departing 6/22 and returning 6/27 (can't be gone more than a week).
I've seen some coach Econ go as high as between $11,000 - $ 17,000
when you really want to get to some of those most remote or odd off-the-beaten-path destinations.

Fiji is NOT a cheap travel destination as one might think.
Worst is the fact often you 'can't get there from here' scenarios you will keep running into.
