Should travelers have a temperature of 100.4 degrees F or higher, display COVID-19 symptoms, or provide answers on the  STATE TRAVELER HEALTH FORM(link is external)  requiring additional testing, they will be required to complete a secondary screening at the airport performed by trained health care staff.

Travelers flying inter-island to either  Maui  or  Kauai  may bypass the mandatory 14-day quarantine if they take an FDA-authorized Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT) from the certified CLIA lab not sooner than 72-hours prior to departure with a negative test result.

Again, we want to note that  Oahu  does not currently have any inter-island travel restrictions, and the  Big Island of Hawaii  is not currently participating in an inter-island pre-travel program; all inter-island visitors to the Big Island will have to quarantine for 14-days at this time.

Inter-island travelers will be able to upload their negative test results when they complete their travel and health forms on the ‘Safe Travels’ digital system:  travel.hawaii.gov. The traveler must have the test result with them upon arrival so airport screeners can review the result.

Travelers arriving on Maui or Kauai who choose not to take an inter-island pre-travel test, or who do not arrive with a negative test from an  inter-island trusted testing partner , will be subject to the 14-day inter-county quarantine.
