Starting Thursday, Hawaii will begin allowing tourists to forego a 14-day quarantine if they get negative results to a COVID-19 test at least 72 hours before their departure from the mainland.

"We’re fortunate and appreciate that our guests understand their role to keep all of us safe by wearing a face mask or covering when traveling, including young children," said Hawaiian Airlines spokeswoman Tara Shimooka.Among the uncertainties is whether individual islands will participate the testing program that allows visitors to skip a quarantine.

“A single pre-arrival testing program alone does not provide the needed level of protection for our Kauai community,” said Kauai Mayor Derek Kawakami in a statement. He said the island secured 15,000 rapid tests and will develop a plan to mitigate the virus’ spread. Even after successfully completing the tests, visitors may not find the bustling dining-and-shopping paradise they expected. Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell said his city has some of the same conditions found in many mainland cities: bars closed, mask requirements in public places and many tourist attractions and activities on hiatus.As a result, island officials aren't entirely sure how many tourists to expect once the testing program begins.

They can open travel but countries, states and cities need to be open. Important but challenging task. $XPSA can do testing but if restrictions apply and resultants/landmarks/gatherings are closed, no travel happens.

nice
