Nearly 800 Fiji Airways staff, including cabin crew and pilots, were made redundant yesterday.
FBC News obtained a copy of the termination letter that was sent to 775 staff from the airline.
In the letter, Fiji Airways said the severe effects of Covid-19 had resulted in the company taking the "drastic step".
