    My family has also had to cancel plans and would like to rebook. Testing seems to be a reasonable alternative, BUT, there are most definitely issues with it. Some states are not allowing tests if you don’t have symptoms, and the 72 hour window may be too tight. My state allows non-symptomatic testing but has a 3-5 day turnaround, being outside of the 72 hour window. We do not have rapid testing here. Would a person take a chance and step onto an airplane without results? What if you receive results a day or 2 after you get to Hawaii? Do you have to leave immediately? What happens to all that money spent? Will it be refunded? I wonder if these things are being considered?

    I have been hoping mainland travel from Hawaii would open up soon. I have a new grandbaby due on July 2 and I was supposed to be there for the birth, but it doesn’t look promising. Keep us updated! Thanks!

    How do we sign the pitition to ReOpen Hawaii, also how can we give our support in getting others to sign pitition?

    How can we resume travel when the virus is NOT contained and cases in the mainland IS increasing through most every state? We STILL do not have a cure and safety is the best course to take. Is it better to risk lives our island lives than to open for economy’s sake? I think lives are more important than risking a known for a fact of a certain increase of the virus. Money IS the root of all evils!
    Kudos to Governor Ige to stand up for safety’s sake. He IS responsible for this and our state’s lives. I think Josh Greene is overstepping his bounds in this case.

      exactly. So many believe this is all a hoax. ITS NOT I have personal people in my life close to me who have gotten ill and died. Yes this is PROOF that money is the root of all evil.

    We need to get back to work! Figure it out political leaders, thats what you get paid to do! No is not an acceptable answer!

    I’m not in the airline business, but I suspect it takes an airline a couple weeks to ramp up and ensure all logistical and personnel requirements are met and sustainable before full service can begin. Two weeks seems about right. Hawaiian may fly with near empty planes for a couple weeks, but they will have ensured that ground crews, flight crews, FAA coordinations, etc are ready to go.

    Thanks Jeff and Rob for keeping us informed.

    Thanks for your great info! We are still locked down in Lake Toba Sumatra, a tourist-based industry like our home in Hawaii. This poor developing country will provide FREE quick tests when leaving the island (where there have been NO cases!) and the current status is below. Maybe figure out what to do from other places with success.

    Thanks for your good updates. People need to start questioning what is happening. This isn’t political – this is our freedom at stake. The WHO stated that asymptomatic carriers rarely transfer the virus. Then rescinded it of course. Google for more information on the original press release. This is major.

    Thank you for this useful article! Please keep us updated. We have a new home in Lahaina and are looking forward to visiting as soon as the quar antine is lifted. We are happy to be tested and testing is available to asymptomatic folks in our area; they are enlightened enough to want to understand the amount of spread in the community.
