Airlines planning the SFO → NAN leg start from the same arithmetic this page uses: 8,808 km ÷ 850 km/h, then the 40-minute airport allowance. The slider's steps are anchored on typical hub dwell times, which is why the totals sit at 14 h and 18 h rather than pure multiples.
Mid-band sectors like SFO–NAN (8,808 km) usually carry both non-stops and cheap one-stop alternatives — compare totals at 14 h before choosing. Factor the 20-hour shift into recovery plans: eastbound arrivals at Nadi (Fiji) generally bite harder than westbound ones.

Nadi (Fiji) has no large alternative airport within 700 km in the dataset, so the SFO → NAN routing has no practical substitute endpoint. That leaves SFO → NAN as the only sensible air routing, which concentrates fare power in a single search.
None of these nearby fields has a paired calculator page from SFO yet, so use the distance and time columns to estimate any rerouting yourself. Ground transfer from the alternative airport back into Nadi (Fiji) is the catch for arrivals off the SFO service: the 0 km back-offset is time you must win back in fare savings.
Landing time and daily budget for Nadi (Fiji)
Leave San Francisco at 10:00 and the local arrival clock in Nadi (Fiji) reads about 17:02, which tells you whether day one is recoverable. Daily spend shifts at landing: $143 in Nadi (Fiji) against $311 at home in San Francisco, using the dataset's mid-range figures.
On those numbers Nadi (Fiji) is the cheaper place to linger — the gap is $168 per day, which over a week funds a second flight. With 20 hours gained eastbound, the 8,808 km out to Nadi (Fiji) ends in a serious jet-lag bill — plan a quiet first day.
