Oh my, the beat goes on. Glad for these Beat of Hawaii updates. Were scheduled for Kauai 30 June, hope it works. Their government is making it difficult to spend my money
Hi guys.
Glad you’re heading this way soon. Thanks.
Aloha.
I live in Texas where the Governor just signed an order banning vaccination passports for our residents.
How does Gov. Ige intend to address those who live in states where this action has been taken?
Will the vaccination card be “enough” proof?
I think I can answer that question about living in a state that does not allow vaccine passports. I think this means that for people in The states that outlaw the vaccine passports a business is not allowed to require a vaccine passport but obviously that state has no ability to control what other states require and has no way to stop a person from acquiring a vaccine passport so they can travel in a different state .
Thanks for the update , not such good news for travelers but definitely good news for the testing companies like carbon health, the fee now is $170 in Portland for my may 5 test at Pdx. This is a price increase from $130 I paid in January .
Surely a simpler, cheaper test could have been introduced for Hawaii travel by now. Most tests likely are accurate enough to mitigate whatever it is they are still trying to mitigate. (because it sure isn’t hospitalizations they care about anymore.)
July? WTF? Ige, or whoever is “advising” him, are leading the free world in incompetence with COVID. New York started its vaccine passport program 10 days ago. Started it! And Hawaii needs another 90 days to get going with its program? I mean, what a complete cluster you-know-what.
I really hope that Hawaii can get this figured out! We had a trip scheduled for last June, then rescheduled for July, then rescheduled for August, and never got to go. We have a trip scheduled now for the end of June. We are both vaccinated, but if they move opening to July 4th, we will be past the “3 month” window Hawaii governor Ige wants. It is really difficult to make plans. I hope Lt Gov Green can impress upon Ige the need to figure this out sooner than later. We miss Hawaii and would like to return, but I am not up to going with testing and quarantines. Mahalo for listening.
So I’m a bit confused and please would you clarify about the vaccine.
We have planned trip towards the end of May to Maui. We will be fully vaccinated 3/12 weeks prior to our arrival date. My vaccination card will be complete. At this point in time- are you stating we will still need to get a covid test 72 hours before we depart?
A concern is if the test results will conflict with a test.
So much information that changes by the minute.
Hi Irene.
That is correct. Until something else is announced, you will need to comply with the Safe Travel testing in order to avoid quarantine.
Aloha.
I’m confused on how it works if you do not opt for the vaccination and/or passport since it’s not a requirement. Does it remain as it is now with having to be tested before flying inter-island or from the mainland?
Yes
Everyone has to take a pre-test for covid-19 within 72 hours of coming to the islands whether vaccinated or not.
What about children? They cannot be vaccinated yet and it is age discrimination and a violation of the Equal Protection Clause to treat them differently, especially since they are not allowed to be vaccinated yet
Stupidest damn thing EVER to require US citizens to need ANY kind of passport to travel to Hawaii or even between the Islands! The insanity has to stop and sooner rather than later!
Do you Have your real ID ready? Guess what if not you’d need a passport to fly. FYI and yes you do need it to fly tkbhawaii or anywhere else
I appreciate all of the great information you provide on this site, mahalo! I had seen earlier on in discussions about vaccination travel that it would need to be within three months of getting the vaccine, do you know if that is still under consideration? We are planning to visit in September, and don’t know if we should wait to be vaccinated until mid-June so we can meet this criteria. Seems like we should get vaccinated as soon as possible. Mahalo.
Hi Carol.
The state has said nothing about that recently. We’ll have to wait, but our sense it it will be longer than that.
Aloha.
