When moving out to Guam does the company fly you first class?

PS coach waitlisted for first

How long does it take to get your belongings delivered?

Roughly 4-6 weeks as determined by real time shipping factors

Hotel and car rental while you wait for yours?

Yes

With 3000 extra do you find still affordable to live?

Biggest non-normal expense for most people would be paying for private schools. (Around $500-$2K monthly per kid depending on the school.) If you have no kids, you’ll probably find the pay plus Island bump more than sufficient.

Just the two of us if we do this. Would like to rent house

Condos are probably more common for singles/couples, especially if you want to be close to the beach. Tumon Bay & Agana Bay both have lots of options for that. For houses, I’d look at the greater Tamuning & Agana areas. Avoid Dededo/Yigo. Yona & Chalan Pago are a little farther out but have some nice areas. There are some really pretty areas even further out like Talofofo & Merizo but they will feel very remote. Basically anything south of the Naval Base is only for 300+ level islanders.

Any suggestions while planning this change
Great base for divers, water lovers, and adventurous travelers. People that come wanting a unique experience are rarely disappointed. People that want to bring the American suburbs with them frequently are. Feel free to DM or post here with specific questions. I think it’s good to share ideas here since some may need to have their minds made up by day one of BI.
