Samoa Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi told his radio audience that was what he would like to see.
He was answering questions about his flight on a Samoa Airways Twin Otter plane to Tuvalu for the Polynesian Leaders Group meeting.
The flight had to take on fuel at Wallis and Futuna during a two hour stop over.
Tuilaepa said he would like a bigger plane that might be able to seat up to 70 passengers, possibly a Chinese plane.
