Thank you for clarifying.  And to clarify further since he will move goal post, a cancellation means they booked a room for X days, then chose to cancel said RSVP for those days.  Same goes with the surf lessons.  They were not walk ups, but booked appointments that were cancelled.

I know I’m late to the party, but….

"God is in Control"  :crazy:

I guess he wanted that dudes death then... :rofl:

That’s the second time he laughed at someone’s death.
I’m starting to think other members might be right.
There might be something SERIOUSLY wrong.

Okay, then it would not be linked to the tourist seasons.  Assuming the facts are legit, it would appear the mayors plan has influenced the tourists.  Not sure why.  Unless we had a bunch of unvaxxed tourists.  Who were willing to get tested...

Natural Selection.  If you do stupid shit and suffer the consequences its funny.  After so many warnings and advice, its on you.  I can tell someone the stove is hot, but if they slam their hand on it, I will "laugh" (call em a dumbass and have a chuckle).

Much like the movie "jackass" is funny. 

So if I die from the covid vaccine, all the anti vaxxers here can have a hilarious post on my behalf.  Since many have been "warning me".

Remember when they used to run ads showing you sick children to pull at your heart strings and guilt you into dropping a couple bucks for charity?

Yeah that world is gone now, your health is all that matters and anyone who dies first is good riddance more bed spaces for me.

Enjoy letting them run yet another PsyOp on you with a new reason to hate your neighbors instead of the real villains, governments. Your real foes are the CCP and the parts of the US Fed in bed with them.

There are no "tourism seasons" in Hawaii.  Hawaii has the strength of being in a location that offers moderate temperatures year round.  We have people from all around the world coming when it's colder in their part of the world.  While US travelers from the mainland may use their Summer vacation time to visit while kids are not in school, we see just as many -- if not more -- coming in Dec and Mar.

Here are the DBEDT Arrivals figures for 2018:
Code: [Select]
Yr-Mon 2018-01 2018-02 2018-03 2018-04 2018-05 2018-06 2018-07 2018-08 2018-09 2018-10 2018-11 2018-12
Arrivals 794,946 776,506 896,601 795,942 796,850 891,001 935,017 843,585 716,055 763,673 778,483 900,187

Total: 9,888,846 people
Average:  824,071/month

As you can see, June, Jul and August are above average, but December (Christmas break) and March (Spring Break) are very close to July (highest number).

Here was 2019:

Overall, I can't see ANY month or 2-3 consecutive months being labeled "peak season" -- not when the maximum in 2018 was 935,017, and the minimum was 716,055.

Here are the 2 recent pandemic years for comparison:

He also mentioned god again, and for a non believer, he sure does mention god a lot, and even started a thread on religion.  Closet church goer.

The state COVID website has  a link showing the daily arrivals and from where.  But only going back 1 weeks worth. They also break down how many are vaxxed, tested, airline crew, etc...But that is by day and you cannot see the weeks prior.

So yesterday:

So far about 18,000 arrived
13K vaxxed
3: Neg test
1K Airline crew
100 military
2 student
1 government
130 transit (IDK what this is)
473 other
