* Congratulations to Go Visit Hawaii reader, Natalie for winning the Go Visit Hawaii reader reward contest. Natalie reads Go Visit Hawaii from her Canadian home in Nelson, BC. When I told her she had won, she shared this with me, “I just started to receive the emails from you. I find them very enjoyable. We will be going to Waikiki for our Family Christmas Vacation this year, and it will be our first with no snow…Not sure if I will miss it or not.” I hope she enjoys it. I do like Christmas snow, but wouldn’t mind trading snow for sand on occasion.
* Waikiki’s Hilton Hawaiian Village has two nice Winter sales:
* The newly renovated Mauna Lani Bay Hotel on the Kohala Coast of the Big Island is offering an early booking deal. If you book by 12/31/09, you can get rates as low as $278 per night during the prime Winter visiting months of January through March 2010. See this link for more details.
* If you like the looks of these deals, but you’re wondering if airfare is expensive, I have some great news. I’ve found quite a few excellent rates from around the U.S. Here are some of the examples:
* American Airlines has a new 10% discount promo code for AAdvanage members. There are too many terms and conditions to list. So, see this link to play the game, see the T&C, and get your promo code.
* If you are looking for ideas of what to do for Christmas in Waikiki or New Years Eve in Hawaii, hang tight. For some odd reason, information hasn’t been as forthcoming this year and some events are pending. If your Hawaii business has a special Christmas or New Years Eve event, please submit it to me for consideration. Please us my contact form at the bottom of the about Go Visit Hawaii page
