  1. I have everything but flights booked for three trips in 2022, two to Kauai, and one to Maui. Already well ahead on all three car rental reservations.

  2. We are planning to visit Hawaii soon. I have a few questions that I hope you would be so kind to answer.
    My wife and I have already had COVID so the science states that we have built up an immunity to the virus. As a result we opt not to get the vaccine.
    Why does Hawaii only want visitors who have had the vaccine? Those who have had it can still get it and can carry it also.
    We are no more of a treat than anyone else on the planet. Thank you for listening.

    1. During Summer, proof of vaccination was the only requirement for travelers, eliminating pre-travel testing(except for unvacvinated) That did not work,
      Cases went through the roof.The Governor asked to “please don’t come” which slowed down travel, with the seasonal drop-off and cases decreased from 400-600 a day to 49.
      Just being vaccinated did not stop Covid from spreading. Every person entering should be tested, Vaccinated people transmit Covid too.

  3. With the emphasis on Vaccinated visitors only, I would love to take off my mask. You don’t have to wear it outside. You don’t wear it when you eat. Let’s drop the other shoe and take off the mask.
    The mask has been the single most aggravation producing limitation. It ,could be our gift to the mainland. “If you are vaccinated and will not crowd, (6 feet separation) come enjoy the fresh air and Aloha of Hawaii.”

  4. Aloha,
    I was in Kauai both in May and Sept this year. I planned well ahead and was fortunate to not only be able to go, but had no problems with car rental (approx. $55/day) and an average fare on Alaska. I will be returning in May and still feel very lucky to return to my timeshare.
    The key is to plan ahead if you are able.
    I follow BOH’s each posting and it helped keep me abreast of all the fluctuating changes during these unprecedented times.
    Mahalo for all you do 🌺

  5. Can’t believe people pay to put themselves thru this. Best of luck to everyone. Not sure what the rush is. Maybe it’s because I lived there 20 years but paying double and triple for rooms and cars waiting hours in line for overpriced food and what will be lacking service doesn’t make much sense to me anyway.

  6. Nobody is mentioning the 12/8 “deadline” for all (major) airline employees to be vaccinated or lose job if not. This will, indeed, affect air travel across the board. If airline employees are willing to lose their jobs rather than get vaccinated, many flights will suffer as airline staff diminishes and more flights get cancelled.

    The Hawaiian tourism roller coaster continues.

    Warning to all flying out of Kahului(OGG) it took us a good hour to check our bags and get through TSA line, on a slow Tuesday!

    I can only imagine what it will be when the late fall early winter crush begins.

    I spoke with staff at Grand Wailea they said reservations are roaring in for that time period.

  9. I will be there Thursday for 12 days! Looks like I timed it perfectly. As always, thank you for all the detailed updates.
