taranaki_chick 22:47 UTC 10 Aug 2010 | Just came back from a four week trip to Samoa. Thank you Air Pacific for stepping in there and finally giving us direct flights from Honolulu to Apia. We are free from the hassel of going through Pago. So while on the plane I am looking through their Air Pacific flight magazine and they have some good deals that some of you might be interested in. Did you know they have weekly flights to and from Honolulu to Nadi that stop in Christmas Island? mmmmmmm I see small island lovers eyes gleaming out there. Then on another page there was an advert for their new Pacific Bula Pass. If you fly with Air Pacifc to Fiji, you can go two other Pacific countries from there on a US $99 pass....choose between Nuku'alofa, Apia, Port Villa, Honiara and Tarawa....or you can go to 4 for $199 or all for $299. Have to complete it all in one month though. You round the worlders might find this a good fit. see airpacific.com Spent most of my time in Samoa in Apia......family reunion season.....but had a few days at the end to relax out on Namu'a island at the fales there. Wonderful.... Took the Lalomanu bus out to the end of Upolu. Lots of turtles in the water going over to Namu'a on the boat. Totally relax.....read and snorkle.....and eat. Kerosene lamps at night.... Lots of bird life. |
