I’ll be arriving in May for my vacation and I’m hoping for an end to all mandates and an end to safe travel requirements, but if not I’ll adhere to whatever rules that are in place, small price to pay for my vacation
No one has been a bigger support of masking as I felt I am protecting you and you me. I now have the three shots and no longer fear getting deathly ill from covid. I am tired of masking. It’s on you if you haven’t been vaccinated, completely.
I am not sure why these Governors continue to act like dictators. Let me make the choice for myself. If masks work so great, let those who are still concerned wear them and those who are not concerned stop wearing them. We need our freedom back.
Do you feel like you’ve lost your freedom because you have to wear clothes indoors?
Amy P I don’t, nothing more relaxing than entering the house, peeling off your clothes and enjoying the freedom it brings into your life. I highly recommend it and suggest more people try it.
My wife and I have visited the islands three times during the pandemic once vaccinations were available. For us, masks are an inconvenience at most, especially since we like to do outdoor things (including eating at restaurants with outdoor seating) and masks generally are not required. Going to the store with a mask is the same thing we choose to do at home so no big deal for us.
I support your right the wear a mask if it makes you feel better about leaving the house.
Feels good to make choices for yourself and your family, doesn’t it?
Aloha, I’m currently visiting on Maui. I have zero issues with wearing a mask, and will have zero impact my traveling to Hawaii. I was on various islands for 9 weeks in 2021 due to cancellations in 2020. Wore a mask and took all the tests last year. Vaxed and boosted. Thanks.
Been here on Kauai for over 5 weeks. Have had no problems or discomfort wearing a mask indoors or outdoors in a crowded condition. Fully vaccinated. Will continue to wear mask indoors when we return home.
Third year in a row we can’t/won’t come to our timeshare condo in Maui. First year we were required to quarantine 14-days. Considering Hawaii is a state that depends on tourism, this governor has done everything but post a “You’re Not Welcome” sign at the airport.
Think of it this way if there is an outbreak, and hospital beds become full. Are you willing to volunteer your time to help out the healthcare workers? Hawaii already has a shortage of Doctors and majority of them are burnt out. This isn’t about not being welcoming it is about providing a buffer for the hospital systems.
Okay, Ige probably ran out of Federal Stimulus money or He certainly would have posted signs at the airports and every single point of entry telling visitors to Go Away. He’s proven himself to be a menace to everyone and everything Hawaii, there’s “Not a Tax that He doesn’t like!” He will be out soon enough and the Voters almost certainly will Elect another Carbon Copy of Ige so that they can continue Complaining about how Bad of a Governor they have, unreal!
Ige claims to follow the science, but it seems that’s only true when it’s convenient for him.
Can you expand on what is Ige’s convenience?
Hawaiians should stop blaming Governor Ige for everything that He Has and Hasn’t Done, They should be Blaming Themselves because They Voted For Him Twice! He was Problematic during His First Term, Why would anyone think that it would get better during his Second Term when He would be a “Lame Duck” that could do whatever he wants with no one to answer to? Now let’s see who the Voters Choose for Governor after Ige, is there an Ige Junior or a Protégé named Green waiting to take his place? Maybe Zuckerberg would want to be Governor, He knows what it’s like to run things that others create, and it should be easy for him to follow the playbook left behind by others. He wouldn’t spend $2 Billion and get nothing for it I’m fairly sure.
We’re considering making a Spring Break trip to Oahu with the kids in April but if the mask mandate stays, we won’t be coming. Every other state has dropped them. They don’t work anyway. Get rid of it.
When is a 2 week quarantine necessary ? Are you meaning for ppl arriving by plane or what ?
If You Arrive without the proper items consider yourself vacationing for 2 weeks in an enclosed space, your hotel room, so welcome to doom and gloom! You asked and here’s your answer. Thank Governor Ige and all of those Hawaiians that Voted For Him!
