The 10th Pacific Arts Festival organizing committee in American Samoa is still hopeful that Hawaiian Airlines will add an extra flight to Pago Pago in July to accommodate what the committee describes as demand in travel for the festival set forJuly 20 to August 2nd.

Hawaiian Air has already added a third weekly flight for Pago Pago beginning May 27th to August 26 to accomodate the busy summer travel months.

Another extra flight has been added for arts festival visitors on July 19th

Airline spokesman, Keoni Wagner, says the additional flights, already added for American Samoa are based on passenger demand and availability of aircraft and

crew.

He says there are still seats available on the July 19th flight.
