Hawaii will soon be allowing fully vaccinated tourists back onto their shores. Find out more in this informative presentation.

TOURISTS

2. People who have received the required two doses of the
coronavirus vaccine could be allowed to travel to Hawaii
without quarantining as soon as March 1. The state is
working on a potential vaccine passport to verify their
immunity, allowing them to skip the mandatory
quarantine.
Inter-island travel without quarantine would also be
extended to local citizens who have received their
complete vaccinations as soon as April 1. The same
program could be extended to mainland visitors by May 1.

3. At present, all visitors to the Aloha state must show
evidence of a negative COVD-19 test within 72 hours
of their arrival. Passengers are also screened for
additional testing upon arrival. Any passenger that
does not wish to get tested must quarantine for two
weeks before they are free to travel around the
island. Inter-island travel for visitors is still subject to
the two-week quarantine mandate.

4. SUFFERING MASSIVE BLOWS
Hawaii has suffered a massive blow to its economy
since quarantine started last year. The state has
been relying heavily on tourism, both domestic and
international. The isolation of the state and lack of
proximity to additional hospitals have led to some of
America’s stricter travel policies.
VACCINATION PASSPORTS
The proposed vaccination passport would involve
travelers receiving an electronic code that would
bypass standard quarantine protocols and
procedures. Similar programs are being explored
and rolled out in Iceland, Thailand, and Denmark.
Other countries have already begun welcoming
fully-vaccinated travelers without restrictions.

THE ISLANDS
Although most Hawaiian islands are following the state’s two-test
protocols for flight arrivals, Kauai still maintains tighter controls. The
small island requires that on top of the initial negative pre-arrival test,
tourists must stay at a pre-approved property for a three-day
quarantine, upon which they must test negative again.
The good news is that the arrival of the vaccination will be a win for
the Hawaiian islands, allowing much-needed tourists to visit without
spreading the virus to the local people safely. The ordinarily large
influx of visitors to the state every year far outpaces Hawaii’s ability to
handle major public health threats, but a vaccinated population
reduces the risk considerably.

6. CONCLUSION
The vaccination passport program is planning to be
incorporated across several airlines, making it a
seamless process for people who have received
their two vaccinations to visit Hawaii’s pristine
beaches.
