TELL ME THEN. WHY WOUKD THE AIRLINES KEEP SELLING TICKETS FROM THE MAINLAND ? Just to fly us over there and put us in a jail cell basically for 14 days. COME ON AIRLINES. THEN STIP SELLING TICKETS. SIMPLE AS THAT
If Hawai’i wants to re-open to tourism, they should consider following the lead of other countries. Allow visitors from countries and maintain the ban from countries where COVID 19 has not been controlled, like the USA, Brazil and Norway.
Thank you.
Hi Dan.
Thanks.
Aloha.
Dan – There’s a legal issue with Hawaii banning travel from the USA. It’s called the Constitution.
Hi! Just a note. Do people realize that most international flights require a 72 hour test to board the plane?

A message dripping with profound vitriol & sarcasm but signed,
“Aloha?!?!?”
WOW!!!
Praying for all the Islands. Thank you for the reporting
Hi Wendy.
Thanks.
Aloha.
I feel like Hawaii should at least offer to let visitors in from states that aren’t into the red with COVID19 cases. The same way NY, NJ & CT are putting certain states on their quarantine watch list, Hawaii can easily apply a test option for states that are appropriately lowering their curves and numbers (few as that may be). At least that way there is something of note going on tourism/vacation-wise. NJ here and we’ve been behaving just so we can get back in Oahu!
On a brighter note, they have just started offering some free Covid testing sites in the Bay Area with 15 minute results. You do not have to have symptoms for this testing. They may be helpful for future travel.
Or Hawaii may once again change the type of testing that they require and you land to a 14 day quarantine.
Hawaii will not accept those results.
I am willing to stay away. I have no choice. The health of the people is more important than putting food on their table. Their governor agrees with me. If a 5 year travel ban saves even one child from catching this killer wouldnt it be worth the loss of some profits?
Aloha-
I totally agree that Hawaiian’s health must come first. I am confused though by how “The health of the people is more important than putting food on their table” makes sense. The state’s economy is already devastated. Five more months will add years to the recovery. Five years would more than likely kill more children then it saves.
thank you
Hi Jon.
Thanks.
Aloha.
And exactly how many children have caught this killer 🤔 And did you actually mean 5 years🤔
Thanks to your updates and information, we have decided to push our next trip to spring of 2021. It just does not seem that Hawaii will open and as senior citizens we can’t take a change on such a long flight. I really feel for the folks who depend on their salaries coming from the tourists. These include the maids, servers, etc and I will personally tip just a little more than normal when we finally do get there. In the meantime, we appreciate your updates on all the conditions.
Hi Bob.
Thank you.
Aloha.
We had a trip for a week in September the 3rd week. That is what we are doing moving to spring or in September Again
Aloha Guys!
I hope not…
I hope they can put a plan together to save the economy and provide a safe and secure way to handle and allow visitors. If not for the government bureaucracy, it shouldn’t be that difficult, at least for American Citizens. I imagine the “island time” factor doesn’t help either, but I see economic devastation and a bleak outlook for recovery in the Hawaiian Travel Industry, if they don’t at least solve this problem within the year. I feel for those couple hundred thousand that will be with no jobs, and struggling to collect unemployment. It’s going to get a lot worse, if they don’t work things out. That’s for sure!
Take Care!
Hi Jim.
Thank you.
Aloha.
