According to preliminary visitor statistics released by the Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism (DBEDT) total spending by visitors arriving in August 2021 was $1.37 billion.
Prior to the global COVID-19 pandemic and Hawaii’s quarantine requirement for travelers, the State of Hawaii experienced record-level visitor expenditures and arrivals in 2019 and in the first two months of 2020. Comparative August 2020 visitor spending statistics were not available as the Departure Survey could not be fielded last August due to COVID-19 restrictions ¹. August 2021 visitor spending was lower than the $1.50 billion (-8.9%) reported for August 2019.
A total of 722,393 visitors arrived by air service to the Hawaiian Islands in August 2021, mainly from the U.S. West and U.S. East as compared with only 23,356 visitors (+2,992.9%) who arrived by air in August 2020 and 926,417 visitors(-22.0%) in August 2019.
In August 2021, passengers arriving from out-of-state could bypass the State’s mandatory 10-day self-quarantine if they were fully vaccinated in the United States or with a valid negative COVID-19 NAAT test result from a Trusted Testing Partner prior to their departure through the Safe Travels program. On August 23, 2021, Hawaii Governor David Ige urged travelers to curtail non-essential travel until the end of October 2021 due to a surge in Delta variant cases that has overburdened the state’s health care facilities and resources. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) continued to enforce restrictions on cruise ships through a “Conditional Sail Order”, a phased approach for the resumption of passenger cruises to mitigate the risk of spreading COVID-19 onboard.

Statement by DBEDT Director Mike McCartney:
Although we are not at 2019 visitor and expenditure levels, we are seeing increases in the August recovery rate at 78 percent in terms of arrivals and 90.8 percent in terms of visitor expenditures when compared with August 2019. Visitors who came in August stayed longer (9.07 vs 8.46 days) and spent more on a per person per day basis ($208.9 vs. $191.7) as compared with the same month in 2019.
We are happy to see flights from Canada increase significantly in August (from two flights in July to 36 flights in August) due to the resumption of Air Canada flights from Vancouver to Oahu and Maui. Visitor count from Canada reached 6,154 in August and was the highest since the breakout of COVID-19 in March 2020. In August, air seats from the U.S. mainland were 23.2 percent higher than those a year ago while air seats from international destinations were only 11 percent of what they were a year ago.
We expect tourism to be slowing down in September and October, but recovery will accelerate in November. The easing of the international travel restrictions by the Federal government and effective in November will help bring more international visitors to our state. We expect total visitor arrivals for the year will be at 6.8 million (65 percent recovery from 2019) and visitor expenditures at $12.2 billion (68.5 percent recovery from 2019).
Statement by Hawaii Tourism Authority President and CEO John De Fries:
The August 2021 results showed that total visitor spending and visitor arrivals continued to steadily improve on the strength of the domestic travel market. However, until the international travel market returns, Hawaii will not reach the pre-pandemic levels of higher visitor spending that is essential to the state’s economy. It is also important to remember that tourism recovery is non-linear, meaning it ebbs and flows, and softening is anticipated for the traditionally slower fall shoulder season.
