Nadi International Airport anchors aviation across the archipelago from its position on the dry western coast.

The airfield stands at Namaka on the drier western coast of the main island, functioning as the primary international entry point and the home operational base for Fiji Airways. State enterprise Fiji Airports Limited manages the complex, which processes the vast majority of inbound international travellers and island tourists. Its coastal position keeps heavy air traffic away from the political capital in Suva.

New Zealand constructed the initial runways under British colonial funding before extending the airfield for the United States military air ferry route. American engineer Leif Sverdrup negotiated airfield expansions directly with New Zealand officials. The terminal long operated as an essential mid-ocean refuelling station and managed regional air traffic control across vast ocean expanses before long-range jet travel.

During political turmoil following a coup, a refuelling crewman boarded an Air New Zealand flight with dynamite demanding government release, but a crew member subdued him with a duty-free whisky bottle. Recent terminal modernization updated passenger concourses and baggage systems, while long-term airfield planning outlines seaward runway expansion, upgraded taxiways, and a replacement air traffic control tower.
