Asinine,they are in a death spiral.
I have zero interest in quarantining by choice and paying huge amounts of money to stay in a hotel bubble. The extra costs and stress of the pre-travel test results are already enough to cancel our July trip to the island. Throw in more costs of additional tests, quarantine, no rental car etc… and we’ll definitely be choosing elsewhere for this and all future vacations.
What about visitors who are going to Kauai to stay with family? Do they get to quarantine at a family members home?? Or are they suddenly forced to pay outrageous amounts of money to quarantine at a hotel bubble?
Something bigger is going on here … and my gut tells me it is for a shady political purpose.
I was looking at a long term stay for remote work, 30+ days. A 4 day quarantine is far more appealing than 14. I’d definitely do that, and would gladly pay for my testing.
No, still not interested in coming back. Any quarantine is unacceptable. As is restricting the place we choose to stay.
Been coming to Hawaii for 16 years, every summer for 2 weeks. I want to come back but won’t tell things are back to normal. If I get a test and I am clear of Covid, I should not have to quarantine, period. Love Hawaii, but get things back to normal.
Having moved away from the islands in 2018 after having lived there for awhile, this all seems like another example of a “thing”, event, whatever being used as a “reason” to do something else. Kauai doesn’t want folks there; I get it, that’s fine. And also, beings that I’m not from the islands(after over 2 years I *still* correct people every time that they say this), my opinion is….whatever. Also fine. Good so far.
. But, can’t the parties involved just come out and say it,”we don’t want you here”? That’s the part that is so silly to me, the pretending that whatever combination of days/quarantines/tests are pulled out of the hat in whichever given moment is suddenly the magic solution to eradicate a virus.
Not worth it at all. Just open Kauai like the rest of the islands with tests before you go.
No car, no condo, don’t guess I will make it this year. I had to cancel a 2 week stay the last 2 weeks of February. I have already had Covid so I am a threat to no one. Looks like proof of that would make a difference.
Guess I spend 2 week on another island in Hawaii?
I sure wanted to visit

Thank you for all the information this group provides to the public. Amazing!
I cancelled my New Year’s trip after reading all the comments from people, reading endless articles wondering about the do’s, the do nots, and what if’s.. all the pre travel and post travel stress and stress of being in Kauai “safely” as required was NOT worth it.
I live in Colorado where tourism is everything as well and I understand.
Maybe one day I will check the Kauai box off but I will say it won’t be anytime soon. I wish all a Happy Holidays! Safe travels and do your best to keep yourself and everyone around you safe.

Hi JDP.
Thanks. We hope to welcome you another time. Please let us know when it works to come. Happy holidays.
Aloha.
Happy holidays !
Can you tell us about the expectations regarding the 72 hour rule and airline flights being delayed due to bad weather ? We are concerned that our efforts to be within the 72 hour time frame are going to be off because of bad weather or even flight operations because of fewer workers due to covid.
Thank you kindly!

Hi Cheryl.
Flight delays won’t be a problem. The rule specified within 72 hours of the scheduled departure, not the actual time. Happy holidays.
Aloha.
