Assessment and utility crews across Guam have begun the monumental task of clearing debris and restoring power after the core of the Category 5 Super Typhoon hammered the Mariana Islands.
United Airlines Holdings, Inc. reported an all-time record total operating revenue of $17.9 billion for the third quarter of 2026, representing a 17.4% increase compared to the same period in 2025.
Matson Inc. and Hanwha Philly Shipyard Inc. held a christening ceremony for the Aloha Class Vessel Makua, set to serve Guam in the first quarter of 2027, at the Hanwha Philly Shipyard, Philadelphia on Oct. 12.
Essential infrastructure, commercial fuel stations, and private health facilities across Guam are swiftly reopening following the passage of Super Typhoon Champi, with key transportation hubs and utility providers moving into full recovery status.
Just hours after Super Typhoon Champi passed south of Guam, President Donald Trump approved Gov. Lourdes A. Leon Guerrero's request for an emergency declaration, which authorizes the Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency to coordinate emergency assistance.
