Fans have already started gathering at the Nadi International Airport as they await the Fiji Water Flying Fijians arrival later tonight.
Vilisi Tava Saukuru from Korobebe, Sabeto, who is Vilimoni Botitu's aunt has been waiting since 4pm.
Saukuru says Botitu asked her to come and greet the team as he is staying back in France.
She says she is grateful to the Flying Fijians for not just representing the country but showcasing who we are as a people.
Saukuru says even though they didn't make it past the quarter final, from now on even more people will know where Fiji is.
The Flying Fijians are scheduled to arrive at 7.45pm.
