Hawaii Allows UnCruise to Sail Despite Large Cruise Line Ban

The State of Hawaii has decided to side with the cruise line UnCruise and allow its boats to enter port. This is a part of larger trend by state governments granting exemptions from existing laws in order for new technologies like ridesharing services, hotels, or even cruises. Cruise lines were previously granted exclusivity over ports because they offered more jobs than other businesses that would often compete with them for docking space.

The “us cruises” is a cruise line that offers trips to Hawaii. Recently, the company has been allowed to sail despite the large ban on cruise ships in the state.

When UnCruise Experiences began operations in Hawaii during the Thanksgiving holiday vacation season, it became the only small ship business now providing overnight inter-island adventures.

The Safari Explorer, a 36-guest cruise ship, began the winter season with a cultural immersion in Halawa Valley on the island of Molokai. All guests and staff members must be completely vaccinated and present documentation of a negative COVID-19 test to cruise with UnCruise.

UnCruise worked with all levels of administration at the state and county levels to secure authorization to operate in ports and parks around Hawaii, while big cruise lines were forced to cancel cruises slated to visit until 2022.

In November, Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) public information officer Jai Cunningham said that the state will not reopen to cruise ships in 2021, and it is unclear when the industry would resume in 2022.

UnCruise owner Dan Blanchard remarked, “It’s time to concentrate on our guests’ experience as well as the people and culture of Hawaii.” “We are celebrating the rights given to us, and our ability to provide an immersive tour of the Hawaiian Islands, especially the less-traveled island of Molokai, whose people and culture have become a part of the UnCruise Adventures family, after nearly two years of very restricted travel.”

“We’re still working on operational specifics with Maui and Hawaii counties,” Blanchard said.

UnCruise announced a series of seven-night Hawaiian Seascape journeys from Molokai to the Kona Coast and back to commemorate 12 years of operations in Hawaii.

The UnCruise Hawaiian trips will take passengers from Molokai to Maui, Lanai, and the Big Island of Hawaii, stopping at Halawa Valley, Hualalai Volcano, and Kealakekua Bay on the way.

“We’ve worked hard to assure the safety and confidence of Hawaii’s inhabitants in our operations,” Blanchard said. “The assistance provided by Hawaii government authorities has been vital in paving the way for our tourists to visit these beautiful islands.”

“To be given permission to operate is humbling,” Blanchard concluded. “Thank you to the numerous leaders and citizens of Hawaii who support our hands-on learning opportunities.”
