查到一些信息，有消息说夏威夷10月15号都可以开了，只要在去之前 acquire covid test within 48 hrs 就可以。但是大岛拒绝参加这个pre-test计划。 现在离10月15号还有一周，不知道会不会变卦

**Big Island of Hawaii potentially opts out of Pre-Travel program

We''ve just learned that on 10/6/20, Mayor Harry Kim of the Big Island of Hawaii has now stated they will NOT participate in the pre-travel testing program. This means mainland (or interisland) visitors going to the Big Island will be required to quarantine for 14 days. We are currently awaiting confirmation from the Governor or Lt. Governor on this - as they have not officially confirmed Mayor Kim''s position.

Bypass Quarantine with Pre-Travel Test

Visitors may bypass the quarantine requirements, beginning October 15th, with a pre-travel test! This excludes the Big Island of Hawaii. Current approved & trusted testing partners can be found on our new page: Hawaii COVID Testing & Partners →

We encourage all visitors to also keep an eye on our Hawaii Quarantine & Travel Updates page for additional information on visiting Hawaii during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Resort Bubbles?

We''ve now also learned that the new Hawaii ''Resort Bubbles'' concept has been initially approved for all quarantined travelers, though this has been approved only on Kauai to date. This plan may or may not come to fruition provided how close things are to the official reopening date. We will continue to update this page accordingly, and the information below, as soon as we have new official information to share.

The testing program, which goes into effect on Oct. 15 for travelers age 5 and older, will allow travelers to bypass Hawaii's mandated 14-day quarantine with proof of a negative COVID-19 test. The test must be from a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified laboratory and taken within 72 hours of the visitor's last leg of their trip.

Critics of the plan say that the testing program will not do enough to protect locals from possible cases of COVID-19. By not making the tests mandatory for all — some travelers may still opt for the two-week quarantine — travelers could unintentionally contract the virus.

“They’re going to come here with this false sense of belief that, ‘Hey, I got tested, Hawaii, I’m clean. Here’s my paperwork. Let me enjoy my Hawaiian vacation,’ not knowing that the person in seat B on a five-hour flight gave them the coronavirus,” State Sen. Glenn Wakai told The Associated Press.

When it comes to specific island rules, The Big Island's mayor Harry Kim announced they will be requiring a second COVID-19 test, according to KHON2. The island reportedly has 50,000 tests ready for arriving tourists.

The mayor of Kauai, Derek Kawakami, and the mayor of Maui, Mike Victorino, have also called for additional post-arrival testing — requests that KHON2 reported were both denied by Gov. Ige.
