Hawaii visitors face strict 14-day quarantine upon arrival

Amid the spread of the novel coronavirus to all 50 states, Hawaii’s governor ordered a strict quarantine for arriving passengers. Anyone flying to the islands will have to quarantine at home or at their hotel for 14 days. Also, Hawaiian Airlines will suspend all but 1 flight between the US mainland and Hawaii beginning Thursday. Hawaii governor David Ige ordered the strict airline passenger quarantine Saturday. “With the majority of Hawaii’s COVID-19 cases linked to travel, it is critical that we further mitigate the spread of the virus by both residents and visitors who are coming from out-of-state,” he said in his order. To get Hawaii residents and vacationers back to their homes, Hawaiian Airlines said it would continue all regularly scheduled service through Wednesday. <br/>
