We just got back from Hawaii and will share our travel experience and everything you need to know that is different about traveling to Hawaii in 2021. I’ll cover how the airline experience has changed, how hotel stays are different, eating in restaurants, and finally just how the crowd levels and general vibe in Hawaii is currently.

Kinda looks like Brian Shatz.
Surprised for how much busier it is there the restrictions and closures seem about the same as when we visited back in November 2020.
Your videos are so helpful! I have been watching them to plan my trip to east coast and I live in Hawaii. Hi!
My mom and I are flying from Guam back to Honolulu via United Airlines. Thanks for informing me of the buying snacks on the app thing.
I really enjoyed your video. Great channel. ⭐️💕
Greetings from Albania. 👋🏼 🇦🇱
The traveling princess is so cute!!!
Thank you so much for the video! I was excited to go in August for my bday, but gonna wait a little more. I want to experience the whole Hawai vibe in my first time there!
Hey Chris! I highly recommend you come check out some of the small towns in Upstate NY right on the finger lakes, it's super scenic. Watkins Glenn is super cool too. Highly recommend if you're ever stuck trying to figure out some place to go. We've got a bunch of hiking trails, waterfalls, etc up here!
Why you always call it the main st ?? Kalakaua Avenue
What the hell does QR mean?
Are there still multiple homeless hanging out on Kalakaua Blvd?
So that's why everyone is running to Hawaii the flights are super cheap
Thank you for your tipps. We made it, it was great. See you on our chanel and hope that we can travel again. Take care
July 8th no more tests for vaccinated travelers! We're going to Kauai at the end of July.
Thank you for promoting how we are being safe with our visitors & our own ohana here in the islands. I thank you also for trusting in us with your keiki. Please also let others know to be sensitive to things like businesses that had to close due to the Pandemic, families who lost their homes due to lost of jobs & minding the restrictions without complaining. The people who keep Hawai'i a destination hub work hard despite high cost of living. I do hope you enjoyed your stay & let's keep Hawai'i clean & safe for future generations. Mahalo & a hui hou kakou (until we meet again)!
Thank you so much for the brilliant info.
Great video and very helpful! Your daughter is just too cute!
Extremely nice and informative video. You are living the dream. Hawaii is definitely amazing the way you captured it. I just started my channel about 2 months ago, It is called Travel Boardwalk. I hope one day I can make videos that are amazing like yours. Thank you very much for the awesome video!!!!!!
We are headed to the Big Island next week. I think I will print out our covid results because I did a "trial run" on the safe travel website and it doesnt let me select anything to upload. We did cheap tickets and booked our flight, car, and condo all at once. Thank you for this video
You should do Yellowstone
Seems like a big PITA.
Thanks for this video. Travel there in a week. 😍
Can’t wait for the traveling with toddler video ! I’m going to Hawaii on July 17 and my son is 18 months old. Very nervous about traveling with him 🤞
I'll wait a few years, not worth the burden for the vacation price
Just a heads up as you have mentioned this in your videos a few times: tourists from Japan can bypass a two week quarantine if they test negative 3 days before going back to Japan. I think the main issue with that right now is how much those covid tests cost. You need to take one before heading To Hawaii too and they cost 200-300 dollars, give or take. Same thing happens on the way home. That adds 400-600 dollars to a trip to Hawaii.
Are you required to do the covid test even if you are vaccinated?
Are you guys fully vaccinated? I thought you’d not need to be tested once we’re fully vaccinated. Can you clarify this?
Going to Hawaii this month
Just to get this straight… they mainly cared about your negative COVID test right? Did they ever make you prove that you were vaccinated?
Everyone, please pray for people in Hawaii and anywhere else people are worshipping water, nature, etc. They are actually worshipping marine spirits which is not good. I was watching a video of a woman talking about if Hawaii doesn't repent, judgement will come upon them. Please everyone, please pray for the people of Hawaii and anywhere else, practicing idolatry. Thank you so much and God bless you all in Jesus name!
John 3:16
King James Version
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
I’ve been two Hawai’i twice and can’t wait to go back but the time just doesn’t feel right. Locals seem stressed with the insane amount of people visiting and the drought etc. Can’t wait till stuff cools down
I've been wanting to go back to Hawaii but definitely going to wait till all this calms down. Too much of a hassle for me with all the requirements etc
You didn’t say where you got your QR code. From Kaiser?
Sounds crappy and frustrating
Does anyone know if delta airlines is doing the pre clearance before you go to Hawaii?
Thanks
Great video very detailed with information we need in 2021.. thanks
Stumbled on this video searching for a Seattle video. I live in Hawaii and I really enjoyed this.
yea jus no go waianae,mākaha,nānākuli,maili,ewa,waipahu,
town,and you good,unless you like get jumped some of us chill some not. but mainly do NOT go to waianae small kine might get jumped
great info, Chris! Been meaning to ask you ; where is the name and model of the toddler carrier that you use for your daughter?
Hawaii so beautiful the lines didn’t seem that long to me try to move to Denver Colorado Omai gosh Denver is so busy and expensive might as well move to Hawaii cost an exact same not much of a difference Hawaii is gorgeous though
Don’t come/don’t move to Hawaii to many people already
Please be mindful; respect the land and locals if you do travel here mahalo
This July 2021 on Kauai, our friends could NOT get a car for the entire week. When we were in Kauai in May 2021 at Hertz we had to wait almost 2 hours to get our car. Also, We needed 2 QR codes per person.
Not worth aggravation shame Hawaii nothing but tyranny!Temp check for breakfast?Ugggg contact tracking for stores ?Why would anyone pay to be treated abusivly?Sounds like concentration camps during Hitler!
All this stuff is really trivial. Who travels like that? Skip all the stuff, rent a hostel room and backpack the place.
Yeah we stayed at the same hotel and parking is the only thing I didn't like. The driveway is very narrow. I had a mini van so it made it harder especially when car/cars approaching your way, it was a pain!
As a local born and raised. Yall should reconsider visiting Hawai'i. Your vacation is actually a huge problem for the locals right now. Economic-wise tourism is Hawa'i's main ventricle. However, there are way too many people here. Resources are growing thin. Good luck getting a rental car or vehicle here on Maui, we have a shortage. Also, locals are pissed. Hawai'i was annexed from it's people and many of these tourists resemble those thieves. Now, from my perspective these new visitors represent a whole new wave of travelers. First off, it's not advised to travel yet that doesn't stop you. Also, behavior is way worst by each wave. Play stupid games and win stupid prizes. 1. Generally Locals don't want you there. 2. Your safety cannot be promised. (Not a threat but mess around and you'll find out) Additionally services and personnel are massively overwhelmed, understaffed, and massively disrespected. You won't have the Hawai'i experience you imagine. Please reconsider and go elsewhere.
I just went to hawaii for vacation about a week ago, at honolulu and maui. I stayed at Ohia Waikiki Hotel and took me 2 hours to figure out the QR code buisness
