Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Nandi to Funafuti. The right side captures the most dramatic scenery: the Bligh Water and northern Fiji coastline during takeoff, then the open ocean crossing provides occasional views of small island groups and atolls, and finally the approach to Funafuti's distinctive atoll structure. The left side during takeoff faces less interesting inland terrain, though it improves during landing.

During takeoff from Nadi International (NAN), sit on the Right side for the best views. Climbing northeast from Nadi, the right side offers views of Viti Levu's northern coast and the Bligh Water strait separating Fiji's two largest islands. The left side faces inland terrain with less distinctive visual interest during the initial climb. Notable sights include: Viti Levu's northern coastline, Bligh Water (strait between Viti Levu and Vanua Levu), Vanua Levu island (distant), coral reef systems along the coast.

When landing at Funafuti International Airport (FUN), sit on the Left side for the best views. Descending into Funafuti from the southwest, the left side provides views of the atoll's lagoon and the narrow coral ring that forms Tuvalu's capital. The right side faces open ocean with minimal visual interest during final approach. Notable sights include: Funafuti Lagoon (large enclosed body of water), Funafuti atoll's coral rim, Betio islet (western point of atoll), runway and settlement area on the atoll.

The flight from Nadi International (NAN) to Funafuti International Airport (FUN) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the open Pacific Ocean northeast from Fiji toward Tuvalu. Notable features along the route include the Lau Islands (visible as small volcanic peaks if passing nearby), scattered coral atolls of the central Pacific, and the transition from Fiji's volcanic terrain to the low-lying atoll geography characteristic of Tuvalu. The ocean crossing itself shows deep blue water with occasional whitecaps and cloud formations. As the aircraft approaches Tuvalu, the characteristic atoll formations become visible—small coral rings surrounding shallow lagoons appearing as bright turquoise circles against darker ocean water.
