Happy New Year
It’s time for the Governor to grow a set and set the rules for all islands. This changing every week is madding to travelers and locals alike. Small business and jobs are getting crushed under the weight of indecision. Corona is not ever going away so waiting won’t work. My state has no lock downs you are free to hit the ski slopes, snowmobile, tour, restaurants are open and serving. People are showing up in droves from the lockdown states. The corona gaslighting needs to stop and let common sense back into the picture.
Thanks for all the good info.
Hi James.
Thanks. Hauoli makahiki hou!
Aloha.
Kauai obviously wants to have their cake and eat it to. I cancelled my Kauai trip and rebooked to Maui. I’ll cancel there also is they follow suit and stay home. Mind you I wear an n95 everywhere.
Not interested in Traveling to Kauai while they have these ridiculous rules in place; we’ll just go elsewhere. Kauai was our vacation destination 3-4 times a year. Instead, we’ve booked Maui in January and Oahu in March.
Hurts. Well now the governor is as crazy as the mayor. Very sad. Resort bubbles are ridiculous. I would spend my $$$ elsewhere before coming to kauai. This is a joke. Obviously the mayor and governors people don’t read people’s comments. So sad.
This makes no sense. Hang with other people who will be coming and going along with staff for a few days is safer than being alone???? I cannot understand how this keeps my Island friends safer.
We are due to arrive Sunday and have made all our arrangements for the 10-day quarantine. So the option to make it shorter is to drop a couple of thousand dollars to increase our risk to the Island. I think the second test four or five days later may be a good option, but NOT after you have been hanging with people who may have just gotten off a plane. As of this morning, we have have no plans to stay at the resort next door to shave the days off. It strikes us as putting Kauai at a higher risk, not a lower one. Our convenience will not put Kauai at risk. EK
Hurts and really shows how lax hawaii is about its economic future. It also shows that it really doesnt care about tourism and tourists and basic freedoms as an American to travel freely.
Way to listen to your lifeblood! No one wants it, so lets do it?!
The more I read about what’s going on there, the more I think I’d be better in the Caribbean islands…. Many of them seem to have it more Together….
This reminds me of Abbott and Costello’s who’s on first routine. I just pushed our reservations out to July, if they can’t get it together by then….We’re Donef. As much as we enjoy Kauai, it’s not the only place to spend our money.
BOB G…Love the analogy and yes, same for us. If they don’t get it together by July – we’re going to a different island!!! Which is a shame because this Summer will be (hopefully) our 44th trip to Kauai – a place which we obviously love.
As to your final question, Does this latest proposal help or hurt your chances of planning a Kauai vacation?, this will have no effect on my travel plans. As much as I love and dream of The Islands, it would be irresponsible to travel anywhere for pleasure until this deadly virus poses no danger to Hawaii and/or myself.
Thank you Tony. All above comments lament one lost visit, a vacation during a deadly pandemic. With the virus raging in many mainland locations, our govenor continues to regard life more important than a vacation. If you truly love Kauai and it’s people you will understand. Financial difficulties are temporary, death or life long covid effects are not.
There is no lipstick that can be put on the ‘resort bubble’ plan and make it look appealing to anyone. 4 days,10 days or any days. This is the fever dream of a few Kauai politicians.
The resort owners won’t open with this plan as they know people aren’t going to do 4 days locked up before heading to their resort. They’ll stay closed or bleed cash big time. The restaurants and mom and pop shops will largely shutter. Their staffs will go broke and be homeless as clearly no meaningful assistance is coming from the feds. They’ll be plenty of ICU beds as all but the rich transplants will be driven off the island.
Hi Tom.
Thanks for your comments over the past 12 years. We appreciate it!
Aloha.
