Yen fluctuations impact visitor spending in Hawaii

Yeah blame the yen, not our outrageous prices lol. Our corrupt state too greedy. And it will come back to bite them

A rise in tourist numbers but a decline in spending is the OPPOSITE of what you want if you rely on tourism. It just means a continued heavy negative impact from tourism on the islands, without adequate financial benefit to compensate for that. We see the same thing with tourists from the states, social media & costs have caused a shift from our previous demographic of family tourists who paid for tours, went to nice restaurants, paid for activities and shopped, to now having younger tourists with no families, who are vacationing on a budget, taking advantage of free activities they find posted all over social media, who aren’t paying for tours or activities, who aren’t shopping or going out to eat at nice restaurants. Quantity but a lack of quality, that’s what are tourists are now.

Hawaii welcomes the japanese visitors. Please come and enjoy Hawaii!!

Hawaii hotels (with resort and parking fees) and restaurants are still too expensive even with a slightly favorable exchange rate. Add theft, assault and homeless in Hawaii.

Up down idk what the heck it meens lol. -Aloha, back to work 😅

Corrupt Hawaii depending on Tourism. Tourism goes up and down.

Duh ?!?!

Hawaii is a worthless state to visit

Yen crashing dollar to follow
