My only Comment is “Baby Boomers” were initially 1946-1954, that would put that group at 74-67, extending them to 1946-1964 would broaden the Parameter to 74-57, but truthfully pushing the envelop by 10 years, is not the same generation. Look forward to see all in January 2022 @75 and feeling no different then 45, except for the Knee’s, a hui Hou!
Already booked for Hawaiian Airlines, Condo and car for May 2022! Next will be favorite restaurants and maybe a Luau this time!
Mahalo for all of the interesting articles!
Hi Donna.
Thanks. We love hearing they you’ll be returning again soon!
Aloha.
No just Florida. Western Wyoming – Eastern Idaho has been “open” since May/June 2020, and we had a record number of tourists visiting Yellowstone and GTNP last summer. At least, until this summer with new records. Our local ski area also had record season in terms of the number of passes/tickets sold. Not everyone in the country was scared and hiding in their homes last year. No one could fly anywhere, so driving vacations to national parks ….
By the way, I am surprised that “80% of consumers are seeking accommodations with strict Covid hygiene protocols.” Not on my radar at all. Maybe because the respondents to the poll are mostly old people still scared of COVID, despite presumably being vaccinated??
AFAIK, our vacation rental home on Kauai is not being out-cleaned any differently than it was pre-Covid panic, and it is booked solid for a year. Also pretty sure the theory of Covid being caught from doorknobs and countertops has been debunked. You breathe the stuff.
nope… Target employees MUST wipe down everything in Hawaii!!
I couldn’t agree more. Roughly half the country has little fear of Covid, and once States fully opened ( Florida last October) it has been game on for businesses and hapliness.
Covid is literally over for many, if not most States. Especially here in Florida, where I haven’t noticed a Covid sticker, announcement, or conversation in months. The only conversation we have about Covid, after a good laugh, is how much it must suck to be in a lockdown State. Especially in Hawaii, which I end up having to admit I live part time.😬
Only the weirdos wear masks outdoors in Fl.
Not all of us “old people” are afraid… I just rebooked Maui and I just got back on June first!
“Not all of us “old people” are afraid”
Of course not.
I was referring to the “80% of consumers” the above-blog post refers to.
Our local supermarket was jam packed yesterday, including a lot of seniors and, uh, “hefty” people (not mutually exclusive categories). No one was masked or distanced. Clearly not a “scared of COVID” crowd. They aren’t scared of double-bacon cheeseburgers, either. But this is Deplorable country.
Aloha BOH Bro’s
Along with pent up lack of travel pandemic frustration you have another layer of must travel individuals.
Over the past several months I’ve read many comments here from travelers re-booking Hawaiian trips 2, 3 and 4 times stating they must use airline and accommodation vouchers before the end of the year or they will expire.
I do not know what percentage this adds to the overall record travel numbers, but it will be interesting to see if numbers fall off after the first of the year.
Hi Richard.
Good point. We already see somewhat less demand approaching for this fall, so all the way around, things will settle into some cadence sooner than later.
Aloha.
If the mask, and testing mandate, continue through Fall I’d expect a drastic drop…. There will, or for some, already is a time when wearing the mask and being policed about it will get very very old. Considering no other State requires them anymore.
y’all are over thinking this… Most of America didn’t travel because nothing was open.. except FL of course.. which has been getting tourists since the Fall.
Great site to keep up with the rapidly changing rules for travel.
You can find some great deals and a lot of general information about all the islands.
Too late to cancel our trip. This antagonism disturbed us:

What antagonism? (Not all of us subscribe to Apple News).
