✨ AI-Enhanced Insights

Wakaya Island Airport (KAY/NFNW) is a small private airstrip on Wakaya Island in Fiji’s Lomaiviti Group, primarily serving the exclusive Wakaya Club & Spa. Set on a remote island east of Viti Levu, it offers a scenic, low-traffic arrival with connecting flights or charters from Nadi. The airport is simple and intimate, matching the island’s private-resort character.

💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors know to keep bags soft-sided and under the charter’s weight limit—small aircraft serving KAY have tight baggage space, and resort transfers are easier with flexible luggage.
🚖 Getting There

Ground transport on Wakaya is arranged by the resort, usually a short vehicle or boat transfer from the airstrip. There is no public bus or taxi service, so pre-book all transfers with your accommodation. If arriving by charter, confirm baggage limits and weather delays, as inter-island flights can be flexible.
