AIP referenceNFNA — AIP Fiji (Fiji Airports AIS)
Operating hoursNot H24 by AIP-published schedule (historically ~0530-2130 local / 1730-0930Z, customs and immigration available only during operating hours) — but Nauru Airlines' relaunched Suva route (from 28-Aug-2025, flight ON019, Boeing 737-300) lands at 00:15 local Friday, past the presumed evening cutoff, so published hours may be stale or an operational exception applies; confirm current ATC/tower hours with Fiji Airports before planning off-window operations
TerminalsSingle passenger terminal handling both domestic services and Nausori's limited scheduled international routes (Nauru Airlines to Nauru relaunched Aug 2025; Fiji Link to Funafuti, Tuvalu); apron/ramp boarding, no jet bridges; small retail and dining, free Wi-Fi, car-hire counters; a landside master-plan upgrade (with COX Architecture, part of Fiji Airports' 2025-2034 strategic plan) was reported in progress as of 2025

Fiji's domestic hub and secondary international gateway. A 2018-2021 runway project (~FJ$60m, groundbreaking Sep 2018, practical completion Nov 2021) extended the strip from 1,670m to 2,148m and widened it from 30m to 45m (Code C-capable), enabling Nauru Airlines' 28-Aug-2025 relaunch of direct Suva-Nauru service (weekly, Boeing 737-300, arriving Suva ~00:15 local) and supporting Fiji Link's daily Funafuti (Tuvalu) ATR72 service. Repeated attempts at trunk long-haul service (Auckland, Sydney) failed on economics — a single weekly Auckland flight was projected to lose up to FJ$15m/year and adding Sydney up to FJ$37m/year, so Fiji Airways suspended both after Oct 2022. Pax figure is the last published annual total (2019: 366,506 = 37,394 international + 329,112 domestic, pre-COVID); no Nausori-specific breakout has appeared since in Fiji Bureau of Statistics or Fiji Airports reporting, so treat 366,506 as a stale floor likely exceeded now given post-pandemic recovery and the new Nauru route. No ILS at this airport — RNAV/visual approaches only.

Northern Air Services Charters Ltd
Self-handled, Northern Air (Fiji) — Nausori is the airline's headquarters and main operating hub for scheduled and charter regional flights to Fiji's outer islands and Fijian Navy charters (per Wikipedia airline profile); in-house handling of its own aircraft is inferred from its hub status but a dedicated ground-handling licence document was not located.

Petro Oceania Energy Pte Ltd
Fiji's locally-owned fuel major (a Punjas & Sons / Gecko Trucking joint venture, Level 7 Vanua House, Suva) that took over ExxonMobil's Mobil-branded Fiji business — retail sites, terminals, logistics and commercial arrangements — under the 2023 sale announced by ExxonMobil Australia, with long-term ExxonMobil supply agreements keeping the Mobil brand; operates the Walu Bay (Suva) terminal ~20 km from Nausori. Named by ch-aviation (Aug 2026 Nadi fuel-shortage coverage) as the local fuel supplier whose contracted airline customers were exempt from tankering requirements, confirming an active airline jet-fuel supply business in Fiji. A Nausori-specific into-plane operation could not be confirmed from company-published sources (no official website located, so contact fields are left null rather than using trade-directory numbers), hence unconfirmed despite the airport's published Jet A-1 availability.

Sunflower Aviation Limited
FlightAware's NFNA FBO listing shows Sunflower Aviation offering 100LL and Jet A at Nausori (user-contributed directory data; its listed phone ••• differs from the company's published number). Sunflower's own website does not publish fuel sales, so Avgas/Jet A uplift by Sunflower at SUV is unconfirmed — retained because the airport's published fuel grades include Avgas and Sunflower is the plausible GA supplier.
