There is a reason the least expensive tickets are exactly that. They have been lucky during the worst of the Pandemic to be able to change. Now the rules are changing because the airlines need to get out of a hole. The penalties will apply to tickets purchased going forward but tickets issued earlier are still under the old rules. Originally they were “you buy it, it’s yours”. no changes no seat assignments in advance, no carry on in the overhead bins.
Hi all,
We just rescheduled our May 2020 visit to June 4-14 for Oahu. Seems there is some inconsistency in fees being waived. Mine were fully waived and the cost of the new ticket was about 75 dollars more for me but my GF did hers separately from mine and was charged 165 for the new ticket.
I personally used the text service via Hawaiian airlines. Got a text back right away and took about 10 minutes worth of back and forth to get it all completed.
We are super pumped about being able to come. We will all(four of us coming) be fully vaccinated by the beginning of May. We will get our tests, we WILL wear masks, we WILL socially distance as needed and we will NOT complain about any of the rules that Hawaii decides is needed for us to spend our vacation in Hawaii.
I am glad those of us who are being responsible and getting our vaccines and doing what we must to defeat this deadly virus will be going.
We plan to as much as possible help stimulate the economy for small business and the locals.
This is how we can pay back for Hawaiians sharing their beautiful home with us! I for one will respect everyone there.
Good thing I’m using my Southwest Credit Card points to fly round trip free from Oakland to Maui in 3 weeks!
Reading the comments below, we have a trip planned to the big island beginning 5/18 for two weeks. I checked airport car rentals and was amazed at the cost. Took your advice and booked a car rental in Kona for half the price of the airport. Now we will have a car for our entire trip. Thank you again for the good source!!!
Hi Sharon.
Thanks for letting us know how that worked.
Aloha.
Thanks! Very informative. 🙂
Hello. Since the CDC now says if you’ve had both vaccines after two weeks you cannot be infected with COVID so therefore cannot pass it on to others has Hawaii yet to drop the pre-test for those of us that have been vaccinated?
Thanks.
Hi Debra.
Thanks. Consider it passed on.
Aloha
The CDC said what?? Everyone knows the vaccinated are getting and spreading covid the CDC director said that in a news conference a few months ago. Sorry to break this old news to you.
Given all the tax dollars we’ve paid to bail out airlines in the past including COVID and 9/11, this really needs to be regulated. I’m all for free market, but there is clear collusion going on here.
