  1. I live in Ireland, and have travelled to Oahu over 20 times, mostly in September. I bought tickets before Christmas for September 2021. Should I be considering cancelling?
    Thanks.
    John.

  2. We visit Kauai each year and are very aware that, really, Kauai, and probably other islands, has suffered from too many visitors! Some of our favorite spots now limit the number of visitors allowed. Seems like maybe this is a good time for Hawaii to plan for the future and get some controls in place.

  3. We already have airfare & hotel booked for June 17-24. Our whole family is going with us for our 50th wedding anniversary. I’m holding out hope we can still go, but how realistic are my hopes?

  4. We have Alaska flights to Kona on April 6th. Do you think they will eventually do the same thing as Hawaiian as far as a refund, or are they going to stick to just crediting my account? I’m actually surprised they haven’t cancelled the flight altogether, but I just got notification that it was changed the other day, so for right now, I’m stuck with just the credit.

    1. Hi Dan.

      Have you tried calling them? Suggest you keep asking for a refund.

      Yes, we too are wondering if that won’t be cancelled, and suspect it will be.

      Aloha.

      1. My tickets have been canceled for april..please kept me informed as soon you will star booking..thank you

        1. Hi Jeanette.

          If you subscribe to our emails, you’ll be the first to get news of sales once travel resumes.

          Aloha.

  5. Thank you for your regular updates. We are so disappointed that we are not heading out the door to our plane and onto Hawaii for 10 days starting May 1st. 🙁 We look forward to when things clear up coming to see you all! Hugs from the west coast. Be safe and smart!

  6. I was thinking of visiting Maui in late October. When would be the best time to look at fares from the New York area? Would frequent flyer miles be affected by the situation?
    Thank you,
    Joe

    1. Hi Joe.

      Stay tuned with us as we get through this and things turn around. It will be clear when to start booking, but best guess is in June.

      Aloha.

  7. Thank you for the information that all of you have provided. I was planning on moving back to Oahu from Denver Colorado this April. Obviously it doesn’t seem likely. Should I still try and book a flight for April or May and take my chances??? I am very anxious to come home and hope there us a cure for this nasty vi rus. I am praying for the nation to have patience during this tough time!!!! Aloha and mahalo…Mr Michael..

    1. Hi Michael.

      If you decide to return now, you’ll be going into the 14 days of mandatory isolation. Otherwise, it is up to you when you come back.

      Aloha.

  8. I have a Son, Daughter-in-Law, grandson coming July 4th from Cleveland to Hilo. Do they wait until the airlines cancel their flights before they do anything? Please advise.

    1. Hi Daniel.

      We don’t have reason to think that will be cancelled at this time. Stay tuned as it gets closer.

      Aloha.

  9. My husband and I had a great time in HI. Returned two weeks before everything shut down and our hotel closed. Looking forward to another trip back next year to Paradise!!!

  10. Hello,
    We are very disappointed with Alaska. We live in Europe and booked our Easter trip to Hawaii in August. As non US citizen, we are banned to fly into the US. Alaska that flies in the US only offers a voucher valid for one year FROM THE DATE OF BOOKING, meaning for us that we have to fly Alaska so come to the US before end of August ! Our outbound with British Airlines and Swiss offers a voucher valid for one year from the date of travel.
    We’ll loose our Alaska tickets and from now on will do our best to not use that company – thanks for reading
