The Lady Naomi will have to wait until next month on whether it can carry passengers between the two Samoas, but for now, it can only carry cargo.
For more than a year now, The Lady Naomi sails here every two weeks, according to 93KHJ reports.
However, the COVID-19 Task Force has approved weekly trips for the vessel effective this week.
The Lady Naomi arrives on Thursday at 8 am and will depart at 4 pm with cargo only.
According to an announcement from Polynesia Shipping, Lady Naomi’s agent in American Samoa states the releasing of cargo as per instruction from the ASG Port Administration, will start from 8:00 AM to 12:00 noon only.
But if Lady Naomi arrives @ 10:00 am, then the release will start from 10:00 am to 2:00 PM.
You will be charged with a storage fee for not picking up your cargo on Thursday, the day Lady Naomi arrives.
The loading of cargo for Apia will start at 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM but if the Lady Naomi arrives @ 10:00 AM, then loading for Apia-bound cargo will start at 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Polynesia Shipping warns: “No mask & no vaccination card, no entry.”
