A friend of mine came to Hawaii from Japan on Hawaiian Airlines in the middle of this month. At that time, it seems that Hawaiian Airlines informed us in advance by e-mail to take the above steps.
Also, during quarantine, it seems that you are obliged to report online that you are doing quarantine every day called Daily check-in.
If you go out even though you are in quarantine, you will be fined.
In some cases, staff hired in Hawaii have made several phone calls to confirm that they are properly quarantined.
For my friend, the police seem to have visited the quarantine.

The situation changes every day, so we recommend that you check the latest information at any time. Mahalo!

Aloha!
The Halloween season is here!
Wal-Mart in Ala Moana already had a lot of Halloween goods on sale.

Halloween in Hawaii is very exciting every year, and Halloween events are held in various places.
However, as a measure to prevent coronavirus infection this year, a drive-through haunted house will be held on Oahu for a limited time, and it looks like it will be a different Halloween than before.
I will not go out this year and spend time with my family at home ^^;
