  • No private flight will be allowed to land in the American Samoa if there is no forward plan guaranteeing landing authorization at the next or final destination airport.

 

 

RESTRICTIONS FOR TECHNICAL REFUELING/CREW REST

  • Private flights into the Territory with the sole purpose of dropping off equipment and supplies, will be allowed to land with no one disembarking the plane or to overnight.  The occupants of these private flights requesting overnight stay will be subject to the 72 hours COVID-19 testing with negative results, must be provided to the Department of Health prior to arrival.

  • Negative RT-PCR COVID-19 test results done within 72 hours of departure from last port. The COVID-19 RT-PCR test result for each traveller must be reported by the laboratory to AS-DOH as SARS Cov-2 / COVID-19 “NEGATIVE” or “NOT DETECTED”. Travelers reported to be SARS Cov-2 / COVID-19 “POSITIVE” or “DETECTED” will not receive health clearance to board the flight by ASDOH.
  • Travelers with a history of POSITIVE COVID-19 test, in addition to the above, will need to provide proof of 2 valid NEGATIVE COVID-19 tests (minimum of 24 hours apart) following the last POSITIVE COVID-19 test. There must be a minimum of 28 days between the second NEGATIVE COVID-19 test and the date of departure to Am. Samoa.

  • Please be advised of our revised ASDOH requirements as noted below for anyone traveling through the Hawaii Port for a layover or to stay in American Samoa:

• 10 days strict quarantine in Hawaii and 2 negative SARS-CoV-2 tests- one on the 1st day of quarantine and another on the 7th day of quarantine (72 hours prior to arrival)

• 14 days of stand quarantine at an ASDOH designated quarantine facility upon arrival to American Samoa.

  • The 2 tests from Hawaii must be submitted as soon as possible, the first on day 1 to clear the traveler to go into quarantine and then the 2nd test on day 7 for clearance to board from ASDOH, in addition to the completed ASDOH Health Clearance form by a licensed physician on Day 7.
  • The revised ASDOH requirements are due to the resurgence of COVID-19 cases in Hawaii and the mainland USA. This will allow the reduction of risk to the Pacific Island region, and the ASDOH has learned that solely relying on a negative COVID-19 test 72 hours prior to departure has not been sufficient in screening out the SARS- CoV-2 carriers. Recent studies have also shown that the range of illness in asymptomatic carriers can be as long as 19 days.
