Waves Await in American Samoa, But Can You Get There?

Seems the governor of American Samoa is seeking to ban Hawaiian Airlines from flying to the U.S. territory. He's accusing Hawaiian Airlines of abusing a monopoly that Hawaiian enjoys on the routing between Hawaii and American Samoa by charging inflated airfare prices (usually around three times the amount that Hawaiian Airlines charges for flights of similar distances).

This is an interesting development, and maybe the biggest question mark involves how any residents of American Samoa will be able to travel anywhere. And obviously, the surf tourism business could be significantly affected.

So the key question: good surf awaits in American Samoa, but will surfers still be able to get there? Here's a video clip that shows you what you might be missing right now in American Samoa, on YouTube.
