Trusted Testing and Travel Partner(link is external) prior to departing as an alternative to Hawaii’s mandatory 5-day quarantine.
Additionally, any passengers on any commercial flight from the mainland [US], who are over the age of 18, who download the CLEAR app clearme.com/hawaii and correctly follow the directions can use Health Pass. CLEAR touts Health Pass as a “free, mobile experience by CLEAR, which securely connects a person’s verified identity to multiple layers of COVID-19 related insights, including proof of vaccination, to reduce public health risk.”
Here’s how it works: Travelers will add their negative COVID-19 test result or vaccine verification to the free CLEAR mobile app clearme.com/hawaii to generate a Health Pass. Then they can apply for a quarantine exception on the Hawaii Safe Travels website by linking their CLEAR Health Pass. The secure process may be done over a smartphone.
Employees of airlines participating in pre-clearance programs will scan a passenger’s HI QR code prior to the flight to Hawaii to ensure that all entry requirements are satisfied. Depending on the airline, travelers might receive a wristband to help expedite arrival procedures in Hawaii. If a particular airline does not provide pre- clearance service prior to departure, travelers will be screened upon arrival in Hawaii.

And the good news is you won't need to pay for CLEAR or CommonPass to get entry.

Sounds like the State has no plan to officially verify out of state vaccines other than just looking at the cards. Just watched a few questions from the press conference and a reporter asked what the process will be like starting June 8th and how will the cards be verified and Gov Ige responded that it will be the same as the Hawaii vaccines are done (i.e upload the card or show it to screener) and never specified how they will be verified.

This is amazing news!
I wonder if they will accept digital vaccine records from CLEAR or NYS digital pass. I'd prefer not to rely on a my paper vaccine card. It can easily get lost or damaged.

Will children to young to be vaccinated whose parents have been vaccinated be exempt from testing too?

Yes everyone who is unvaccinated and over the age of 5 will still need to take a pre-travel COVID test from a trusted partner if they want to avoid quarantine until Hawaii reaches 70% fully vaccinated which at that point, all travel restrictions (even those unvaccinated) will end.

Well if you haven't booked for this summer already, it seems like you're in for big sticker shock.

I got my QR code and it literally just encodes the text string 'shc:/' followed by about 1500-1600 digits in the range [0-9]. Obviously it's either referring to an entry in a database or it's somehow encrypted, and my barcode scanner can't decode anything more than that. Businesses (as well as other states) supposedly would have the ability to verify it, probably by connecting to California's vaccination record database somehow. The record is supposed to include my name, DOB, the vaccine I got, and the dates the two doses were given.
Policy should simply be that either your state provides a way for them to verify it, or you take a test or quarantine. Don't like it, complain to your legislature. They're not obligated to let you bypass quarantine if they can't verify your status, as we've seen during these past 9-12 months.

If it were my kid I would get him a pre-travel test, answer honestly and not have to worry about it.
