With pristine beaches, towering waterfalls and lush rainforests, Hawaiʻi is paradise on Earth. When the Aloha State rolled out its welcome mat to visitors after months of lockdown, the 19 Hilton properties on Oʻahu, Maui, Kauaʻi and Hawai‘i Island were ready with new protocols. Hilton’s top priority is its guests’ safety, which is why the hotel chain rolled out enhanced housekeeping standards. The new Hilton CleanStay program also includes a special room seal to indicate that no one has entered the room since it has been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. By using the Hilton Honors app, guests can skip the front desk and opt for contactless check-in, as well as select and access their room with a digital room key.

The head of Hawaiian Airlines said last week that “there is a good chance” that Maui may once again see more early-morning flights to Oahu as the airline is making adjustments in its flight schedules.
President and Chief Executive Officer Peter Ingram was responding to a question about Maui residents not being able to find those early-morning flights for essential services such as doctors’ appointments and therefore needing to stay overnight on Oahu to make appointments the next day.

Experience Ke Kai Ola, a hospital for Hawaiian monk seals, on its 2.5 hour walking tour.
Jan 26, 2021
There’s a dry-erase board at Ke Kai Ola, a monk seal hospital at Keāhole Point, with the names of its Hawaiian monk seal patients, where they’re from, when they arrived and their weights, both on arrival and now.
One look at this chart and you can see the impact this hospital, built by the California-based Marine Mammal Center, has had since it opened in 2014.
Hilina‘i, an emaciated monk seal pup rescued in September 2019 from the Pearl and Hermes Atoll in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, arrived weighing 57 pounds. Six months later, she’s 162 pounds. (Monk seals can weigh 200 pounds at 6 weeks old; adults weigh between 400 and 600 pounds.) Since 2014, the hospital has released nearly 30 healthy monk seals back into the wild.
