“Bookmobiles are disappearing in an age defined by mouse clicks,” reports the Boston Globe. While that may be true, there’s one bookmobile on Oahu with a new mission. It’s Bill’s Bookmobile, cheaply selling used books, music and movies. All proceeds benefit the Hawaii Public Library System. Bill’s Bookmobile doesn’t travel to you. Instead you go [...]
I looks like Hilo Hattie, the originally Kauai-based store chain started in 1963, is fast coming to its demise. The ominous “we’re sorry” on their website is a sad indication of the conditions at hand. As you recall, we wrote about their problems last year both on May 10 and again on October 2. The [...]

I checked availablility this morning for all of the incredible, unprecedented Hawaii summer airfares we reported last week. Not surprisingly, a number of them are already gone. It is likely that many if not most of the remaining fares could come to an end at any point now. As of today, 930AM, Hawaii Time: Honolulu [...]
Alice Walker said that, “tea to the English is really a picnic indoors.” We felt the same way after visiting Honolulu’s Tea at 1024. The bright airy tearoom in historic Chinatown had a festive atmosphere from the moment we walked in. We were invited to select our teacup and saucer and a hat to wear [...]

Their presence will undoubtedly bring more discounted travel opportunities to Hawaii visitors. Honolulu newspapers are reporting today that highly successful and rapidly expanding Allegiant, would like to [...]
Today is the day of days for 2009 Hawaii summer airfares. When you add these to all of the other Hawaii airline deals we’ve seen this week, it is completely unprecedented for mid-June through mid-August peak summer travel dates. These are round-trip airfares, plus total tax of $20-$40. Most require 14 day advance purchase for [...]

Updated 4/23: I just checked availability again today. This unprecedented deal is still wide open for almost all dates throughout the peak summer travel season. Okay, so this is becoming quite unbelievable, even to me. Today, when Arthur Frommer mentioned that the $408 round-trip deal I posted last week was gone, I was surprised and [...]
