Anyone following Hawaii's reopening plan
Posted on 6/9/20 at 10:52 am

I know someone that lives in Hawaii and I was planning on going in a few months. The people there are getting a little desperate to reopen but the Governor is definitely...playing it safe, if you want to call it that.
They are just reopening for Inter-Island travel on the 16th I believe. Currently the mainland and international travel ban is set to expire on June 30th.
However the Governor has already announced he is going to extend that. How long? No one knows.
He has also made comments that he will reopen to tourists from Japan and Korea before US mainland tourists, which is...interesting.
Last, there is talk that they will require anyone coming in to have a negative Covid test within 72 hours of arriving in order to avoid a quarantine.
Anyone hearing any news? What do people think of this?

I think that if you place your faith in the decision making of Hawaii’s political leadership, you are being foolish. So I wouldn’t do anything that’s not 100% refundable.

I think people in Hawaii should make decisions for what is best for Hawaii. Not trying to be smart here, but I don't want people in California telling people in Mississippi or Louisiana how they should run their state. I live in Alaska now and they are doing the same thing. I agree with some things, don't agree with others, but I am glad it's our state making decisions for us and not other states.

I am just basing this on a few trips and limited knowledge from people that live there. But because so many people work in tourism and elderly family often times live at home with their kids I would bet things could get bad in a hurry.

I'm not suggesting otherwise, just commenting on the alleged plan.

People don’t realize how much of Hawaii is rural. Like Alaska, much of the native population aren’t exposed to viruses, bacteria etc so their immune systems aren’t as strong as most areas. Even where I live anytime someone goes to town they tend to come back with a cold. Hard to compare with lower 48.

You can travel to Hawaii right now from the mainland, but you’ll have to self quarantine for 14 days.

Yes I'm aware.
Several people have been 'arrested' and shipped back for breaking quarantine. Not really interested in that.

The one thing that does raise my eyebrows is allowing travel from foreign countries and denying travel from fellow Americans.

Hawaii gets a ton of Koreans and Japanese tourist. I think most would agree both countries are in a little better situation with the virus and have more uniform rules and restrictions.

Sorry my response was more to do with comments several weeks back in a similar thread where I was accused of being a liberal for thinking this way.

I just booked for August. 500 Rnd Trip in Premium economy
Inge is going to extend for 14 days is what I'm being told
They will scan the temp coming in and will delay you from getting your vacation started like going to another country
But the economy is being destroyed and cant hold much longer
Nothing yet about some test but they will be monitoring your social media accounts. Paying locals to do so
The hotels will be watching also
I'm staying at Turtle Bay so I'm away from town. They seem to be more intense with Waikiki from what my bros told me
I have my pulse on it so I will update as I get info

Screw Ige and the democrat shite holes that run this state

July 31 is totally ridiculous.
Just have people be required to have a negative Covid test within 72 hours of their flight.

That's what Iceland is doing. Or alternatively you can get tested at airport and wait there for result to come back. Iceland, like Hawaii, was able to escape the virus by sealing up their island borders, but they can't afford to hold out much longer. Their economy is too dependent on tourism.

With the latest news, some of the most popular restaurants in Oahu are closing, permanently.
Ahi Assassins is incredibly popular...done.
Top of Waikkiki, one of the most popular places on the island, done. Its business was 80% tourists.

Democrats love hurting small businesses. It makes me sick

Ige said Wednesday that safely reopening trans-Pacific travel to Hawaii would likely require a combination of testing, screening and contact tracing. The administration is working with the state Department of Health, the state Department of Transportation and the University of Hawaii to put a system in place to reopen out-of-state travel to Hawaii.
Honestly my bros there think this a hole is not gonna open the state up till Sept to the mainland US
They are telling me to prep to cancel again
