Travel Alerts for Visitors to Hawaiʻi Due to COVID-19 Check back here for updated news on travel restrictions to the Islands. Nov 20, 2020
Anyone traveling to Hawaiʻi—both residents and visitors—from out-of-state through Oct. 14, 2020 are subject to a mandatory 10-day self-quarantine. The mandate applies to all arrivals at state airports, including private and commercial aircrafts. Violating the order is a criminal offense and subject to a fine up to $5,000 and/or a year in jail. Starting Oct. 15, travelers of all ages who test negative for COVID-19 72 hours before arriving in Oʻahu will be able to avoid the mandatory quarantine, as part of the state’s Safe Travels pre-testing program. If you are visiting Hawaiʻi Island, you may need to take a second COVID-19 test upon arrival. Those visiting Maui County will be asked to take a second test, but it will not be required. On April 5, Kauaʻi will rejoin the Travel Safe program.
