The Samoa Tourism Authority (STA) has been working behind the scenes with local operators and national bodies to ensure it is ready for the influx of travellers in the coming months.
A series of developments and new processes have been actioned to make Samoa travel ready, ensuring that the health and safety of locals and international travellers is the priority. Samoa’s
preparations include its own version of the digital tracing app, upskilling for local employees, upgraded travel instructions and bolstered testing capabilities. STA’’s acting CEO, Dwayne Bentley, says Samoa will be back on the radar as a mustsee destination, particularly as worldwide
travel restrictions continue to ease and consumer confidence grows.
Samoa: ‘We’re ready’ ‘As international travel begins to take shape again, Samoa has been striving to
ensure critical components of our travelready toolkit are in place. All of these efforts ensure we are in a top position to safely open borders to travellers,’ he says. His comments follow the Samoan
Government’s announcement that it will be reopening its border to international travellers from August/September this year
