Our inaugural trip to the State of Chuuk in the Federated States
of Micronesia was a complete success. Eventhough high fuel costs
forced the cancellation of all flights of the Caroline Islands Air
to the outer islands throughout Micronesia, the Team had prepared
for it by focusing its services on various villages on the main
island of Weno and Toloas in the lagoon. >>view
