Updates for Thursday - January 21, 2021

• Beginning today, January 21st, Hawaiian Airlines announced that they have now joined Alaska Airlines in pre-clearing Hawaii travelers at select locations on the U.S. mainland. This new approach allows those visitors participating, who have a negative test, to bypass all COVID screening protocols on arrival within Hawaii. According to Beat of Hawaii, the Hawaiian Airlines 'Pre-Clear Program' began last week at San Francisco International Airport (SFO), and, starting January 29th, the program will expand to Boston, JFK, Long Beach, and Phoenix locations as well. Hawaiian Airlines' other domestic U.S. gateways will join the program next month in February.
  • After verification of documents, guests participating in the 'pre-clear' program will receive a wristband before boarding. The following is what those travelers who take part need to do:
    1. Create a Safe Travels account for each adult and add all flight and lodging information.
    2. Complete the mandatory Safe Travels health questionnaire.
    3. Upload a negative test result in PDF format from an approved testing partner to Safe Travels. The airline is recommending guests also carry a printed copy of the negative results.
  • Hawaiian Airlines has also said that "Travelers whose negative COVID-19 test results are not uploaded to the Safe Travels app prior to departure or not made available during screening will be required to sign the state of Hawaii's 10-day self-quarantine agreement."
• Beginning February 1st, the Kauai Enhanced Movement Quarantine (EMQ) 'Resort Bubble' program will be expanding to include two additional properties: The Point at Poipu and Hanalei Bay Resort. We also want to remind all Kauai travelers that if you stay three nights on another island before departing for Kauai, then take an inter-county pre-travel test, upload your test results to the state's Safe Travels website/program, and then subsequently travel to Kauai, you will not be subject to any quarantine. Remember also that all Kauai travelers must be "Be physically present in the State of Hawaii for more than 72 hours before flying to Kauai to qualify as an inter-island traveler." This program continues to be the best choice, in our opinion, for travelers who are willing to first spend three or more nights on Maui, Oahu, or the Big Island first. Remember, you cannot travel from the mainland or internationally and take part in this program. The only option for domestic and international travelers flying directly to Kauai is the EMQ 'Resort Bubble' program.

The Governor has some decisions to make regarding testing timelines (possibly extending it to 96 hours, up from the current 72-hour timeline), second post-arrival tests (who pays is to be determined), and whether Kauai will be allowed to continue to opt-out of the Safe Travels program. We're continuing to monitor the situation closely and will update both this website and our email list accordingly as we receive official updates.

Updates for Thursday - November 19, 2020

• In what we believe is a pretty significant development, the state of Hawaii announced today that travelers to Hawaii, who cannot present a negative pre-arrivals test upon arrival, will NOT be able to bypass the 14-day quarantine once their test arrives. Travelers must now have their negative test results prior to departure before arriving in Hawaii. Previously, if the results were not available upon arrival, a traveler simply needed to wait for their negative result to come in before they could be released from quarantine. This would no longer be the case. Read the full story at the Star-Advertiser or at Hawaii News Now. According to Hawaii Tourism Authority President and CEO John De Fries, "Starting Tuesday - November 24th, if you disembark here in the islands through a trans-Pacific flight you must have a negative test uploaded, and if not, you automatically will go into a 14-day quarantine. It's a much stricter policy that is being taken."
• Travelers who previously came in with a pending test result have been allowed to get out of the quarantine - once their negative test results could be verified through the state's Safe Travels Hawaii system. However, the state quickly found itself with a backlog of pending tests, including at one point, where there were more than 3,700 travelers waiting to get out of quarantine. Because travelers were growing frustrated as they waited sometimes three to four days or more wait for a manual review, the state decided to make the change they did today. Again, this change goes into effect on November 24th.
• Initial details were announced for Canadian residents looking to travel to Hawaii this holiday season.

At this point, we know that WestJet and Air Canada have both entered into a COVID-19 testing agreement with the state of Hawaii.

Updates for Tuesday - October 27, 2020

• Hawaii Governor David Ige announced that a mask mandate is now official in Hawaii. "We have issued a statewide mask order," he said earlier today. This order is meant to help further reduce the spread of COVID-19. More details are forthcoming, we'll update here accordingly.
• Details were announced today, at a press conference with the Governor, about the new Japan Pre-Travel Testing program. Japanese visitors will be able to take advantage of Hawaii's pre-travel testing program starting next month, with travelers arriving as early as November 6th. The pre-travel testing program works like the U.S. trans-pacific program in that it will allow incoming trans-Pacific passengers from Japan to forgo quarantine if they provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken with a trusted testing provider no more than 72-hours before departure. The partners are as follows: Sapporo Higashi Tokushukai Hospital (Hokkaido), National Center for Global Health and Medicine, Center Hospital (Tokyo), St Luke’s International Hospital (Tokyo), Nishi-Shinbashi Clinic (Tokyo), Kameda Kyobashi Clinic (Tokyo), Tokyo Medical University Hospital (Tokyo), Mita Kokusai Building Clinic (Tokyo), Loco Clinic (Tokyo), Karada Internal Medicine Clinic (Tokyo), T Care Clinic Hamamatsucho (Tokyo), Shiba Kokusai Clinic (Tokyo), CLINIC FOR Tamachi (Tokyo), CLINIC FOR Otemachi (Tokyo), Kameda Medical Center (Chiba), Shonan Kamakura General Hospital (Kanagawa), Travel Clinic Shin-Yokohama (Kanagawa), Fujita Health University Hospital (Aichi), Fujita Health University Bantane Hospital (Aichi), Fujita Health University Okazaki Medical Center (Aichi), Nozaki Tokushukai Hospital (Osaka), Yamasaki Family Clinic (Hyogo) (as of 10/27/20).

• At this time, International Travel Restrictions still prohibit European and other countries from traveling to the U.S. Currently, as we understand the rules, this additionally means no travel directly to Hawaii from either Canada or Japan (see above). However, we have now received an email from a Canadian resident who first flew into the western U.S., then got properly tested within 72-hours prior to departure from a trusted partner, and then flew into Hawaii successfully. So that may provide an option for Canadian travelers who are looking to visit Hawaii at this time. Canada residents may still want to check with official sources to ensure this method works prior to traveling. At the press conference announcing the Japan program today, Governor Ige did express interest in broadening the pre-travel testing program to additional international travelers, including those from South Korea, Canada, Taiwan, and New Zealand. Canada is the second large international market for Hawaii after Japan, so we expect details on a Canada program soon.
