What Went Wrong at Hilo Hattie?

What Went Wrong at Hilo Hattie?

February 20, 2015 by Beat of Hawaii

The Hawaiian legacy vendor has just filed bankruptcy for the second time in recent years claiming it owes more than $10 million to just 20 of its hundreds of unpaid creditors. So can “The Store of Hawaii,” Hilo Hattie remain in business? The company has unpaid debt of $1.2 million for back rent on its main Honolulu store alone. That in […]

Allegiant Hawaii Scrubs Route

October 13, 2012 by Beat of Hawaii

One of the new Allegiant Hawaii routes has been cancelled before it even got started. Friday, the Las Vegas based carrier announced that planned service between Monterey and Honolulu has been called off. The weekly service was due to commence next month. This is a disappointment in terms of Hawaii travel deals. Bookings did not materialize Allegiant’s Jessica Wheeler […]

Southwest Airlines to Hawaii | Is It Getting Closer?

September 24, 2012 by Beat of Hawaii

Last week SWA flight attendants signed an agreement which allows the carrier to operate over water flights. So many in the press presumed the announcement meant  Southwest was closing in on announcing Hawaii service. Southwest has already begun taking delivery of larger Boeing 737-800’s, which were acquired in part with the thought of serving Hawaii and other distant destinations. These […]

July 2, 2012 by Beat of Hawaii

Beat of Hawaii is on the move and in the air. So far this year we’ve been on each of the Hawaiian islands, and have visited several of them more than once.

Deadly Car Crashes Happen in Hawaii

March 26, 2012 by Beat of Hawaii

There were two accidents this weekend that serve as a reminder of tragedy that can strike in paradise. Five died and seven were injured as the result of cars that crossed the center line and collided head on both on Maui and Kauai. When I drive around in the islands, it’s easy for me to think that there isn’t […]

Hawaii Chocolates | Edible Aloha From The Islands

Hawaii Chocolates | Edible Aloha From The Islands

February 25, 2012 by Rob

Hawaii is the only state which produces cacao. It’s been grown in Hawaii, mostly on the Big Island, for over 150 years. Only recently, however, has it become commercially viable. While still small, it is rapidly expanding and could someday surpass coffee as Hawaii’s premier crop. I can’t think of a sweeter addition to a Hawaii vacation than a chocolate […]

Unexploded Ammunition at Hawaii’s Hapuna Beach

February 15, 2011 by Rob

The Big Island’s Hapuna Beach is one of my favorite in the entire state, and I have never seen anything dangerous there other than seasonal big surf. So while scouring the web for Hawaii travel deals we love to bring you, I was caught by complete surprise to see in this morning’s newspaper a brief and thus far incomplete […]

Any Advice on TSA Enhanced Screenings?

Any Advice on TSA Enhanced Screenings?

December 3, 2010 by Rob

I’ve been following all of the updates on the new TSA screenings in preparation for my air travels next week. Yesterday Arthur Frommer wrote about his recent exposure to the “enhanced” pat down. “The grope…was about as sexual as a doctor’s use of a stethoscope, as invasive as a child’s game of tag. It was over in 90 seconds…” […]
