I continue to be amazed at the visitor count and wonder if it’s accurate. I say that because I didn’t see everybody fill out the form in the past. Or even if they do, they may live in different states, claim residency somewhere else but have a home here. I suspect that is what we are seeing because there is nothing to do here as a tourist.
You can no longer just check None of the Above, sign it and turn it into the FA.

Monday's (04/06/20) passenger arrival data (from: Big Island Video News Serving Hawaii County):

Decrease in flights, increase in visitors...
David
Yesterday, 513 people arrived in Hawaii including 133 visitors and 182 residents. In comparison, during this same time last year, nearly 30,000 passengers arrived in Hawaii daily, including residents and visitors. The state’s 14-day mandatory self-quarantine started on March 26th for all passengers arriving in Hawaii from out of state. The order was expanded on April 1st to include interisland travelers. This table shows the number of people who arrived by air from out of state yesterday and does not include interisland travel.

I've heard from friends in hospitals elsewhere it was to conserve PPE due to the shortage. Basically, unless you are in direct contact with a known case we don't want to "waste" supplies.

And what the world knows now is that unless everyone has been tested there is no way of knowing who has it or not and those people who have it but do not know it (no or only mild symptoms) are running around spreading it. If Hawaii wants to stop the spread they need to have everyone wearing masks now. If they keep waiting they are guaranteeing wide-spread infection.
Of course, the test is only accurate for up to the moment of the test - the person can become infected at any moment after the test....

Idiot from Virginia gets on a plane to HNL to see her friend who lives in Aiea and then Bonnie and Clyde hop on a WN flight to LIH (how's those quarantine protocols working for you, folks). The Kaua`i Police Department are on the ball and catch them heading the wrong way from the airport from where they said they would be staying and then, after warning them for the second time, find them shopping at the Foodland in Princeville.

For those who are still traveling to/within Hawaii (hopefully for an essential purpose, otherwise, please stay away for now), the State now has a website it uses that you may want to complete prior to arrival to register your quarantine:

It will be interesting to see which countries / states open too soon, which ones do things rationally (TBD), and which stay closed for too long and drive their economies further into the toilet. I'm betting some countries fall in the last group and kill their tourism industry and wind up in a long lasting depression.

Saturday's (04/11/20) passenger arrival data (from: Big Island Video News):

And some interisland data:

David
Yesterday, 404 people arrived in Hawaii including 89 visitors and 147 residents. In comparison, during this same time last year, nearly 30,000 passengers arrived in Hawaii daily, including residents and visitors. The state’s mandatory 14-day self-quarantine started on March 26th for all passengers arriving in Hawaii from out of state. The quarantine order was expanded on April 1st to include interisland travelers. This table shows the number of people who arrived by air from out of state yesterday and does not include interisland travel.

And some interisland data:
The Department of Business, Economic Development & Tourism reported the following interisland travel numbers for April 7, 2020. Please note reporting is delayed due to processing of visitor arrival forms, the state says.

The numbers they are posting over the weekend: 6 people cited for no insurance, 1 person cited for violating the ordinance. Pretty ridiculous use of resources IMO.
