American Samoa is the only US territory south of the equator. It’s a group of green, mountainous islands in the South Pacific, with coral reefs, quiet villages and one of the least-visited national parks in the country. Almost every visitor lands in Pago Pago, on the main island of Tutuila. Honolulu is the only US city with nonstop service, so most flights from USA to American Samoa connect there. FaresMatch helps you compare routes and fares in one search, so planning the trip is simpler.
Find Cheap Flights from the US to American Samoa
Fares to Pago Pago depend on where you start, which airlines fly each leg and when you travel. The Honolulu flight only runs a few days a week, so your choice of dates matters more than usual. Comparing itineraries side by side is the best way to find cheap flights to American Samoa from USA.
A round-trip on one ticket is usually the safest choice, because the airline has to rebook you if a delay makes you miss the connection. It also helps at arrival, since American Samoa asks visitors for proof of a return or onward ticket. One-way fares can still make sense if you’re adding Samoa or another Pacific stop to your trip.
