Then book a trip to the Samoan Islands in the the South Pacific, where, come 2012, you can redo the previous 24 hours with just a 30-minute flight.

The Cabinet of Samoa last week approved a plan to move the islands of that nation to the western side of the international dateline. But the islands that make up American Samoa, a U.S. territory, will remain to the east of the dateline. The islands are a little more than 80 miles apart

True. And the international date line required low R & D resources, perhaps making it easier on Joe and Jane taxpayer.
