An offbeat question, kind of Aviation related.

Need to get myself and 3 others to Misima. Which airline now services Misima in the Twotter?

AND does this airline let you take 16' sea kayaks in the cabin? :}

If not, can someone pls PM me with the name/phone of the barge/shipping company that services Misima from either CS, POM or Gurney/alotau.

CS

yep...fond memories of a low level lap of the island in a shrike :E .

Only place I have ever snorkelled and swum off the dropoff and got vertigo....!

Been wanting to go back for a while now, and explore it another way, and sea kayak seems like the way to go! Might see if we can start at Rossel (cargo boat access) and kayak all the way back to Alotau.

Thanks for all the replies - very useful
