Comments	Our group embarked on a 7-day adventure in Fiji, with 5 of those days dedicated to diving. I'd like to emphasize right away that if you plan to travel this distance, consider extending your stay to at least 10 days for a more immersive experience. Before our journey, we'd heard a lot about Fiji Air's weight limits, so we all packed judiciously, which helped us avoid any major baggage issues.
