Fagali'i Airport is owned and operated by Polynesian Airlines. Fagali'i airstrip - at one time a grass-only airstrip, was reopened on 6 July 2002 after the airstrip was re-sealed,[2] only to be de-commissioned in January 2005 due to Government and village concerns, allegedly due to safety and noise.

On 1 July 2009, Polynesian Airlines reopened Fagali'i airport and resumed a service that included international flights to Pago Pago, American Samoa.[3]

The proposal to re-open the airport was controversial and attracted criticism both for the safety and environmental issues with the airport's configuration and for the potential burden on local communities should the scheme fail.[4]

Airlines that have operated from the airport include:

  • Polynesian Airlines
  • Samoa Air

Current Operations

Since re-opening Fagali'i, Polynesian Airlines has acquired a third DHC-6 Twin Otter to better serve

the Samoas in light of the cessation of services of Inter-Island Airways which operated a Pago-Pago

based service to Faleolo, Samoa and the Manu'a islands to the East of Tutuila. Samoa Airways now services the American Samoan routes with multiple weekly services to Ta'u (Fitiuta) and once weekly services to Ofu-Olosega Islands.[5]
