No hassle at all, as long as you don't mind spending about a day in transit! Tickets to get here may be on the pricey side (I did a quick search and found flights to Saipan from Chicago as low as $1,664.00 when booked 6 months in advance), but costs of goods here are just about average, if not lower than typical price of goods in the US mainland (except for produce, which is pretty expensive here due to import costs). You'll also get the added bonus of telling your friends that you traveled a day into the future ;)
