Currently, travel to Hawaii is allowed when certain guidelines are followed. However, the guidelines are a little confusing on what is required to go there (as many have found out).
If one is willing to wait a couple of months, Hawaii will be welcoming with open arms without any restrictions.
According to the Tyler Morning Telegraph:
Hawaiian Gov. David Ige reiterated plans to keep current COVID-19-related travel restrictions in place until the state reaches a 70% vaccination rate, likely by September.
According to Hawaii News Now, state Health Department statistics show that 68.6 percent of the population 12 and older is fully vaccinated, but Ige’s 70% vaccination benchmark refers to the total population.
Only an estimated 58.6% of all Hawaii residents were fully vaccinated as of mid-July.
“We believe the 70% target is good for us,” Ige told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser. “We’re making good progress. Those who are not vaccinated are the most vulnerable and those who are not eligible for the vaccinations are our children.”
