Cruise Ship Visitors
The months of June through August are typically a slower period for out-of-state cruise ships entering Hawaii. In June 2022, 1,118 visitors came to Hawaii aboard one out-of-state cruise ship that also had a turnaround tour. Visitors that arrived on this out-of-state cruise ship toured the islands and then departed Hawaii by air. After the first group of cruise visitors left, a new group of visitors flew into Honolulu to embark the ship, toured the islands, then most left with the ship to visit the next port.
In addition to the 999 visitors that flew into Honolulu for the turnaround tour on this out-of-state cruise ship, another 4,225 visitors flew to the state to board the Hawaii home-ported cruise ship, Pride of America.
In June 2019, 738 visitors arrived on two small out-of-state cruise ships. There were no turnaround tours. Another 12,618 visitors came by air to board the Pride of America.
For the first half of 2022, 29,181 visitors entered Hawaii via 21 out-of-state cruise ships. There were 4,983 visitors who came by air to board turnaround tours on out-of-state cruise ships and another 13,061 visitors came by air to board the Pride of America.
In the first half of 2019, 77,035 visitors came to Hawaii by way of 37 out-of-state cruise ships and 64,238 visitors flew to Hawaii and boarded the Pride of America.
Statement by DBEDT Director Mike McCartney:
In June 2022, visitor spend increased by 12.3 percent from June 2019 with lower visitor arrival numbers into the Hawaiian Islands.
We are seeing positive movement going into the second half of the year with the return of visitors from outside of the U.S. International travelers saw a 31.2 percent recovery during the first half of 2022 with arriving visitors from Japan at the highest number since the beginning of the pandemic, in June 2022, which represented a 9.4 percent recovery rate from the same month in 2019. For the first half of 2022, Japan visitor recovery was 4.8 percent. 12 more flights from Japan were added in June and more are expected in the next few months, which include direct flights into Daniel K. Inouye International Airport and Ellison Onizuka Kona International airports.
We continue to be optimistic in the recovery of the visitor industry for the prosperity of our communities and businesses but know that with the reach of the Omicron’s new variant, the visitor industry’s healthy return can easily be impacted. Continuing to practice COVID safe health habits is foremost in keeping Hawaii economically robust.
Statement by HTA President and CEO John De Fries:
Average daily visitor spending in Hawaii increased significantly for the first half of 2022, in comparison to pre-pandemic 2019, with higher gains from the U.S. West, U.S. East and Canada markets.
This significant shift indicates our current visitors are spending substantially more on their Hawaii trip, counter to the misperception that we are seeing a lower-spending, budget traveler. Even with these higher-spending visitors, we must continue our efforts in destination management to ensure the balance of economic benefits with environmental and community wellbeing.
