Marianas Tourism Recovery Updates

The Marianas continues its recovery following Super Typhoon Sinlaku, and travel conditions may vary by island, hotel, and service provider.

The Marianas Visitors Authority provides this page as the official source for tourism-related recovery updates providing travellers and stakeholders with clear and verified information as recovery continues.

Official Travel Update

Last updated: April 30, 2026
Next official update: May 8, 2026

Travel to the Marianas is still affected by post-typhoon recovery conditions.

Saipan is gradually restoring airport and tourism-related services, but overall tourism asset conditions are not yet back to normal. Tinian and Rota are also in different stages of recovery, and operating conditions may vary.

As of this update, travellers should expect limited availability of some products and services and should confirm arrangements directly before departure.

Airport Status

Saipan International Airport is currently operating daytime flights only. United Airlines is currently the only commercial passenger airline in operation, operating direct daily flights from Guam. Current operations also include Micronesian Air Cargo/Connection Services (MACS) and Star Marianas Air for inter-island and related service operations. Flights remain limited to daytime operations due to damage to navigational aids currently under assessment and repair.

Tinian Airport remains open for humanitarian flights only with limited daytime operations.

Rota Airport is open to receive flights.

Travelers are strongly encouraged to check airline websites for the latest flight schedules and operating status.

Hotels and Visitor Services

Hotels, attractions, tours, restaurants, and other visitor services across the Marianas are in different stages of recovery.

Some businesses may be open, some may be operating with limited services, and others may still be temporarily unavailable. Hotel room availability remains limited due to ongoing recovery-related needs.

Travelers should reconfirm arrangements with their hotel, tour operator, or service provider directly before departure to confirm the latest status of their booking or planned activities.

Looking Ahead

Recovery conditions may continue to change, and direct confirmation before travel is the best way to avoid disruption.  MVA will continue to share official tourism-related updates on this page as more information becomes available.
