In order to establish a "travel corridor" between Hawaii and Japan, the State of Hawaii exempts the Japanese Government from excluding the 14-day self-isolation measure imposed on Japanese travelers when returning from Hawaii. It seems that it is requesting that the recommendation be reduced from the current “Level 3” (stop travel, recommendation to stop travel) to “Level 1”.

In addition, access to the PCR test is a condition of travel, but the test is expensive at US$250-300 once per US$.

Since Thursday, March 26th, Hawaii has enforced self-isolation measures for all arrivals from outside the state for 14 days after arrival. Initially, the plan to exempt from the preliminary screening test was to start on August 1, but it was postponed to September 1 due to the spread of corona infection in the mainland US.

According to the Japanese government's announcement this time, if sightseeing in Hawaii is resumed as scheduled in September and direct flights from Japan will be operated, it is not too far from going to and from Japan and Hawaii. The view came out.

We hope that the situation will soon settle and that everyone will be able to travel with peace of mind as soon as possible.

We are pleased to announce that the Honolulu Marathon Association has abandoned the 48th Honolulu Marathon 2020, which was scheduled for December 13, 2020.
After much discussion and consideration with the Honolulu County Government and the Hawaii State Government, we came to the conclusion that the race will not be held in December of this year.

We know that you are all training hard and looking forward to participating in the Honolulu Marathon.
I am very sorry for this painful decision as well as everyone else.
Related events such as 10K Run & Walk and Kalakaua Merry Miles will not be held in December this year.

We will also consider and discuss alternative dates that can be postponed in the first half of 2021.
If you cannot schedule the postponement in 2021
All entrants will be able to participate in the 49th Honolulu Marathon in December 2021 at no additional charge.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
(Honolulu Marathon Association)

I hope the situation will end soon and it will be held next year.
