FJ Operated, QF coded delay - will they rebook me?
Just found out that my SYD-NAN OW flight tomorrow isn't departing at 0630, but now at 1100, meaning a 1600 arrival time in NAN.
I'm heading to Sheraton Tokoriki and the last boat leaves around 2pm. I'm going for 1 day thing there, so only staying 1 night there.
There's a Virgin Australia flight that gets in at 1:30pm, which means I'd likely miss the boat (checked bags as I've got another 6 days in Fiji) thought it may still be early enough to take a jetski across (can't expense the helicopter, otherwise I'm sure I would!).
Would QF rebook me on Virgin tomorrow for the earlier flight?
Called them today and sat on hold for about 25 minutes with no one picking up (I'm sure the weather in other parts of the country are impacting things)

Looks like the inbound aircraft FJ915 returned to NAN
Doubtful that FJ/QF would rebook but can only ask.
Suggest you get back on the phone
Sunset at this time of year is still after 6pm - so possibly the jetski might still work with a 4pm arrival - suggest you contact the hotel - I'm sure they've dealt with plane reschedules before.
VA flights from A$350 tomorrow

Will contact the hotel as well - I think others are flying in from SYD too, so may be able to reschedule if others are impacted as well.

I'm bouncing around Fiji for work.
I had 1 night at Tokoriki to meet some folks there, but no longer. FJ offered to put me up at the Best Western Hexagon in Nadi, I passed on it & just booked at the Sheraton instead. I'm spending 3 days here & then will head down to Marriott Momi Bay for 3 more days before heading back to SYD.
