Hanh Dinh, 07.07.2021

On 29 June, the Hawaiian island of Maui asked airlines to voluntarily limit seats as the island is struggling to keep up with demand.

In May, 215,148 visitors came to the island compared to just 1,054 during the same month last year. Hawaii has had some of the nation’s strictest restrictions and currently, 60 per cent of Hawaiians are vaccinated.
