TRAVEL TIPS

 AIRLINES SERVING MAUI

Maui's Magic Isles are served by many leading US airlines, international carriers from Europe, Asia and other locations also bring travelers to everyone's favorite Hawai'ian Islands. In many cases direct flights to Maui's Kahului Airport (OGG) are available. In other cases passengers arrive at Honolulu International Airport (HNL) and then travel via an inter-island carrier to the Magic Isles. For information on airport security, prohibited items, and other safe travel news you need to know, visit the Transportation Security Agency website.

For the most up-to-date information on schedules, availability, tariffs and other questions contact individual airlines direct, consult with your travel agent, or click here to contact a "Maui Experts" travel agency.


TRANSPORTATION RENTALS & SERVICES

Maui's transportation providers are all excellent resources for itinerary suggestions and tips on making your day-trip exciting, fun and safe.  Most provide detailed maps, discount coupons for many of our Island's attractions and the reassuring information that we are on an island -- it's almost impossible to get lost!

Holo-Holo is Hawaii'an for "day tripping."  For Mauians and visitors alike the Magic Isles offer an unmatched inventory of Holo-Holo options.  Many prefer to toss the kids and coolers into the back seat, fill the trunk with snorkel gear, cameras and sunscreen, then take off for destinations unknown.


PLAYING IT SAFE

The ocean is Maui's playground, but there are precautions to observe. Offshore winds and currents can be powerful and they can change suddenly. That means not straying too far from shore or heading out to kayak, windsurf or sail if warning signs are posted or if conditions warrant caution. If you're hiking into a wilderness, be sure to sign in and out with park rangers.

Few places are as safe as Maui but that doesn't mean you should abandon all care as you travel about. Lock your car doors and keep valuables out of sight. 911 works here should an emergency requiring police assistance.

HAWAII'S ENVIRONMENT

The Hawai'i environment is fragile.  Part of the Natural beauty of Hawai'i comes from its geographic isolation from more dense ecosystems.  Bringing in plants, produce or animals could introduce pests and non-endemic species that could ruin the Hawaiian paradise forever.  That's why the Department of Agriculture will inspect and likely confiscate such materials when you arrive.  For more information call (808) 873-3655 or point your browser to the STATE OF HAWAII PLANT QUARANTINE PROGRAM.

Similarly, when you depart, your luggage must pass agricultural inspection at the airport to ensure that no plant insects or diseases are hitching a ride back with you. Be sure that any fruits or plants you take home From Maui are certified for export.
