NPR adds “fuel” to the Hawaii High price debate

The folks at NPR really wanted to spin the Hawaii market negatively, but I wouldn’t let them. if you read the paragraph below you would think Hawaii is out of your price range, but it’s not!! Hawaii is a real value right now as the hotels start to offer great deals!! I was on the NPR show Day by Day click here to listen to what ii had to say about this issue.

NPR – Day by Day – If you’re dreaming of a spring vacation on the sandy beaches of Hawaii, think again. Rising fuel costs are making that sort of vacation a lot more expensive. And travel agents are seeing a slowdown in vacation bookings. Madeleine Brand speaks with Bruce Fisher, owner of the Hawaii Aloha Travel Company in Honolulu.

With the recent demise of ATA there are many, many of us trying to get to Hawaii to relocate the end of August 2008. We all have small dogs that we wish to take in cabin with us. Problem is that the only airline that took them into Hawaii this way WAS ATA and they are gone. So, there is a company called Dog Travel Company and they put together charter flights to anywhere for humans and their dogs. Through their forum we are trying to get a charter together for Hawaii the end of August. One-way. If anyone needs to get to Hawaii with pets…please visit the sight and add to the forum. The more people/pets, the better rates. PLEASE !!!
