Hope you can help me with this problem. I am using FF miles to fly to Singapore to start my cruise. OK so far but the cruise ends up in Fiji and I cannot fly out of this region as Singapore is considered Asia and Fiji South Pacific. Sooo I must fly back to Singapore in order to fly back to the States.

Question....What is the cheapest way to get from Fiji to Singapore or any other location considered "Asia".

Thanks....Diane

Hi Diane! Your best bet is Fiji to Tokyo. I'm assuming Australia & NZ don't qualify on your ff awards as Asia. Good luck and enjoy your trip. Cheers, Anne

Diane, what is your airline for ff? I recently got miles to and from Australia/New Zealand on USAirways (and I got them last year doing the Singapore thing). N.Z. because Air New Zealand is with Star Alliance, and Australia because Quantas had a special award for travel between LAX and Australia. Fiji isn't too far from Australia.

What airline are you using for your FF miles from as you may want to try flying via Australia/Hawaii/Vancouver or LA then Toronto !
or to Hong Kong then Vancouver etc....
Hope this helps !

Here is route map for Air Pacific. Fiji is sure out in the middle of nowhere. For pure distance, flying to Hawaii would be shortest. For cost, I don't know. Tokyo works and so does Oz or NZ.

I am facing same problem. Skyteam (Delta et al) doesn't fly to Cambodia. Therefore, I have had to add a Vietnam Airlines leg to Saigon to connect with my Korean Air flight that I am using ff miles for.

Good luck!

Edited to add:

I punched in a date in a couple of weeks. Only way to get back to Singapore is via Oz or NZ. Cheapest for one way was $775 via Auckland on Air New Zealand/Mt Cook. This is not necessarily a representative price since this is for a ticket soon.
