The Hawaii Tourism Authority reports that 5 visitors landed in Kona on Friday, with 375 visitors in total coming into the state–plus 83 people saying they plan to relocate to Hawaii.  The total number of arrivals was 1,249 as detailed below.

The interisland travel quarantine is lifted for residents and anybody who has already been in Hawaii for 14 days, starting Tuesday.  Gov. Ige has extended the 14-day travel quarantine for out-of-state arrivals through July 31, and the State Department of Transportation has new procedures for arriving and departing planes and passengers.

There will be a new interisland travel form that all passengers must fill out, plus they will undergo a health screening.  (Details, click here.) Tim Sakahara of the State Department of Transportation said the form will be available online at the State Department of Health and the Hawaii Tourism Authority websites, but the form is not there yet.  Passengers can fill it out in advance to avoid having to fill it out at the airport.

Crew = flight crew members
Transit = people who are in transit to another location through Hawaii and aren’t leaving the airport
Military = military exempt personnel
Exempt = people who are exempt from the 14-day quarantine after receiving prior approval from the state
Relocate to Hawaii = people who are moving to Hawaii
Returning Resident = people who indicate on the DOT’s form that they’re returning residents
Visitor = people who are not in the above categories
The following table shows what the Oahu visitors indicated as the purpose of their trip, and they can choose more than one.
