Labasa Airport
Labasa Airport serves the town of Labasa on Vanua Levu, the second-largest island of Fiji, in the country's Northern Division. At an elevation of about 44 feet, it has a single asphalt runway near 3,507 feet, handling the light aircraft that connect Vanua Levu to Suva, Nadi, and the other Fijian islands. Labasa is the main commercial center of the north, set in a sugar-growing area quite different from the tourist resorts of the western islands. Air service ties this northern town into Fiji's inter-island network across the surrounding seas. The LBS code identifies this field, an important regional link for the northern part of the Fijian archipelago.
