Labasa Airport will be temporarily closed for a week to allow runway remedial works to commence from next Monday.
Fiji Airports says they have in conjunction with their contractor Higgins and in consultation with airline operators, scheduled the runway rectification program over the period August 31st to September 7th.
They say this rectification work follows testings that were carried out on the newly applied runway surface by Higgins in New Zealand last week.
Labasa Airport will re-open on September 8th for light aircraft operations.
ATR flights are likely to re-commence from September 12th.
