Coming? its here! cant park at the beach or store, cant get into restaurants, cant turn left, etc etc etc.
enough to make we want to just stay home.
Leaving in 5 days for our trip to Oahu (after forcing to cancel in 2020)! Even with safe travels requirements and mask mandates, we are so excited to come for the first time! I think as restrictions continue to loosen more people will come back. Thanks BOH for keeping us in the loop about traveling to HI!
Hi Jen.
Thanks. We’re happy to hear you’re about to enjoy a vacation in Honolulu!
Aloha.
After seeing how many people look with mask off I’m starting to be a fan of mask on well for most people 🙂
Hi Liam.
LOL. Thanks.
Aloha.
Action plan step 1 wait. End of steps.
High fuel prices are going to discourage travel to the islands. Coupled with higher inflation then the mainland as just about everything has to be shipped in by boat. I don’t see a repeat of the summer 2021 insane hotel and car rental prices as that was fueled by cheap airfares and pentup demand. This is a best case view and if Biden cause Putin to send of Russia’s oil to commie china then Katy bar the door, as there will have to be rasioning as no way the supply gap that would cause to make up
Checked rental car prices through Costco for 10 days in Maui, in late August. $1365. That’s about 60% higher than pre-pandemic. Hope it gets better.
Lol why are people going? This is ridiculous but hey to each his own.
My advice for anybody planning to fly between now and November is to book your flight now. I understand that air fares fluctuate, but finding fares rise by $200 in just two days prompted me to book our November flights now. I also booked our rental car. It was slightly more expensive that last year, even though we booked for 7 days instead of 10. I booked our condo earlier in the month, so we’re set. With fuel prices skyrocketing, I’m wondering how high the air fares will go. Thanks BOH.
Hi Lee.
Thanks. Good suggestions.
Aloha.
I always purchase my airfare to Hawaii at least 10 months prior to our dates of travel. This year we hotel reservations in early November. Early January I purchased the airline tickets. After reading the article I looked to see the cost today. I guess I am fortunate my same airfare in a period of 2 months has increased $50. The real concern is the amount to pay for a car rental. The cost of the same size car for the same time of year has increased 30%.
AN N95 has a filter in it that filters out more virus particles then a cloth mask.
