No test results, no exemption.
Lt. Governor Josh Green said today they were planning to tweak the program by not allowing those who pre-travel test without test results to ever get out of quarantine.
So if you board your flight to Hawaii and still don't have test results from a test within 72 hours of departure, you must quarantine at your expense in COVID-approved lodging for 14 days even if a negative test result comes in during/after take-off. And once in Hawaii, these travelers would not be able to test-out during their stay.
Apparently too many positive travelers are coming into the islands positive but without test results.to confirm their status.
