A 20-year Master Plan is being drafted for Nausori Airport that will include a complete refurbishment and upgrade of Fiji's second international airport, creating a facility for the international passengers and a domestic hub for Fiji.[2]

At one time Air Pacific (now Fiji Airways) had its headquarters on the property of the airport.[3]
