The flight in question was operated by an Airbus A350-900 aircraft. The aircraft began its journey by taxiing from the parking area to the runway, a process that took 8 minutes and covered a distance of 3 nautical miles. The departure roll took place on runway 34L at YSSY Sydney Kingsford Smith International Airport, with the aircraft taking off after covering a distance of 1,482 meters, which was 38% of the runway length. The liftoff speed was 158 knots.

As the aircraft took to the skies, it encountered local weather conditions of 18°C temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 310°. The crosswind component was 5 knots, while the headwind component was 7 knots. The aircraft then began its enroute climb, which started overhead Tempe in the State of New South Wales, Australia. During this phase, the aircraft climbed from an altitude of 1,047 feet above sea level to 39,078 feet above sea level, an increase of 38,031 feet in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 192 nautical miles.

Following the enroute climb, the aircraft entered a level cruise phase, which started 112 miles southeast of Crescent Head in the State of New South Wales, Australia. This phase lasted for 43 minutes and covered a distance of 1,368 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its enroute descent, which started at a latitude of -19.204567 and a longitude of 175.4354163. During this phase, the aircraft descended from an altitude of 40,502 feet above sea level to 3,638 feet above sea level, a decrease of 36,864 feet in just 16 minutes, covering a distance of 128 nautical miles.

The aircraft then entered another level cruise phase, which started 11 miles south of NFFO Malolo Lailai Island Airport on Malolo Lailai Island in the Western Division of Fiji. This phase lasted for just 2 minutes and covered a distance of 2 nautical miles. The aircraft then began its final descent, which started 10 miles southwest of Nadi in the Western Division of Fiji. During this phase, the aircraft descended from an altitude of 3,593 feet above sea level to 1,267 feet above sea level, a decrease of 2,327 feet in just 3 minutes, covering a distance of 8 nautical miles.

The aircraft then began its final approach to runway 02 at NFFN Nadi International Airport, approaching from the southwest at a heading of 38.0° and at an altitude of 1,221 feet above ground level. The aircraft landed on the runway, which was 3,209 meters long, with a good threshold height. The threshold speed was slightly above the target speed at 139 knots. The touchdown distance was good at 375 meters, but the touchdown speed was a little fast at 136 knots. The touchdown rate was firm at -344 feet per minute, and the runway touchdown position was misaligned by 8.7 meters from the centerline.

The local weather conditions at the time of landing were 30°C temperature and a wind speed of 9 knots at 300°, with a crosswind component of 9 knots and a tailwind component of 1 knot. The total landing distance was 2,296 meters, which was 72% of the runway length. The runway rollout alignment was very good. The aircraft then taxied to the parking area from the runway, a process that took just 1 minute and covered a distance of less than 1 nautical mile.

In total, the flight distance was 1,708 nautical miles, and the flight duration was 80 minutes. The aircraft used a total of 20,273 kilograms of fuel during the flight.
