Bus to Apia

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Samoa

I will land in APW at 1pm and does the Aggie Grey's still the bus going to Apia for $25 Tala

Aggie's Bus is only there when booked. However there usually is the Airport Shuttle bus for 25 Tala per person, at least at the times of arrival from Auckland, Sydney, Nadi or Honolulu. If you come from Pago, you cannot expect that.

However, at 1 pm you can always take the regular bus to town, at the road outside the airport. 3 or 4 Tala only ...

I am coming in from Hawaii by the 8am flight...... I am thinking about that but carrying a duffle bag and a backpack as well as my laptop bag..... but no worse than say, the locals loading down the bus with bread and Bananas! lol

I ask the same question for midnight on a Tuesday: Is there a bus?

I was at Faleolo airport at 1am yesterday, waiting for some relatives arriving with Air NZ from Auckland. Yes, there was the 'Airport Shuttle' bus, as usual. That will be alright.

Regarding accommodation. The Samoa Tourism Authority counter will be open, right aside the arrival area. They assist with phone calls to possible places to stay. At this time of the year, hardly anything will be booked out, so no worries.
