These statistics are published in the DBEDT 2021 Annual Visitor Research Report, which is posted on the DBEDT website: dbedt.hawaii.gov/visitor/visitor-research/
Statement by DBEDT Director Mike McCartney:
As we pass the middle half of 2022 and compare the state’s economic recovery through tourism with 2019, visitors spent 5.8% or $610.1 million more during the same period with arrivals to Hawaii lower by 13.2% or -815,906 for the first seven months. We are currently 86.8% recovered from 2019.
Therefore, as we move forward together, we must strive to achieve a healthy balance between our community, the environment, and the visitor industry. This balance also includes bringing back our international markets later this year. Tourism is an economic opportunity for individuals, businesses, and communities to uplift and strengthen our home.
DBEDT does not forecast full recovery until 2025.
Statement by HTA President and CEO John De Fries:
Meaningful economic recovery continued during the peak summer month of July as Hawaii saw significant increases in total visitor spending from the U.S. and Canada markets compared to July 2019. Travel demand from Japan is anticipated to gradually increase as we head into the fall and winter seasons, with the recent resumption of air service between Tokyo-Kona and Tokyo-Honolulu adding to the steady return of international flights.
Our destination management work will continue to focus on educating visitors about traveling within our islands in a manner that is mindful, as we seek to balance the economic vitality of our industry with the health of our natural environment and the well-being of our communities. Travelers from around the world, have come to know and appreciate that Hawaii is indeed a special place where dreams do come true.
