The easiest way is to go to Suva, I think the best way to get there from say NYC, is go from NYC to LAX, Then to Nadi (Fiji) then from Nadi to Suva (Fiji) then across into Funafuti. I’m also only aware of only 2 weekday flights of Tuesday and Thursday, from what I’ve heard also that the flights from Kiribati are very inconsistent, they get cancelled a lot from research I’ve done, so I’d go with Fiji airlines.
You should catch a flight first from LA to Suva, then after arriving at Suva you should catch a flight Fiji Link from Suva and you arrive at Funafuti. Why I'm telling you to catch a Fiji Link flight to Tuvalu because it has three service days whereas Air Kiribati has only flight service on Wednesday.
Pleassseeee pronounce Tuvalu correctly for the video! It’s Tu-vá-lu. Accent in the second syllable and not the first! Also, landing in Funafuti is wild!
it is the least visited country in the world, may even be an adventure just getting there, will give u breathing room before u have to do the ukraine episode
