๐Ÿข Terminal Guide & Navigation

Ono-i-Lau Airport (ONU) is a remote regional airstrip located on the island of Ono-i-Lau, the southernmost point of Fiji's Lau archipelago. The facility serves as a vital lifeline for the local community, which is distributed across villages like Nukuni and Lovoni. As a small island airstrip, it does not feature a formal commercial passenger terminal building, instead operating out of a basic shelter or shed used for passenger waiting and check-in. Facilities at the airport are extremely limited, reflecting its status as a minor domestic airfield. There are no retail shops, dining outlets, or ATMs available on-site, and travelers are strongly advised to bring their own water and snacks. Ground handling and passenger assistance are managed locally, typically in coordination with Fiji Link, the primary carrier providing scheduled connections to the mainland. The airfield features an unpaved grass and coral runway (15/33) and is managed by Fiji Airports. Due to the nature of the runway and the island's remote location, flight operations are highly subject to weather conditions and are often infrequent, sometimes occurring only once a week. Travelers should always verify their flight status with the airline prior to their journey to Nausori International Airport in Suva.
