He says with the surveillance upgrades for their air navigation service provider, the multiple runway enhancement projects in outer islands such as Levuka and Lakeba that are completed and with Kadavu and Labasa commencing in the new year; with Nausori runway upgrades 40% complete; and with the $3 billion to be spent over the next 25 years on the Nadi Airport Master Plan that is now into its implementation phase; they have challenging yet exciting times ahead.

Khan says this bonus payment is not based on individual performances but based on how the organization performed as a whole adding throughout the year the company, continuously recognises individuals who excel in their performances.

The CEO adds they have seen their people grow and continue to be hungry to grow further.

Khan has thanked their Board of Directors and shareholders for their ongoing support, and thanked the Prime Minister and Attorney General Minister responsible for Civil Aviation for approving these bonuses.
