Eye on Travel – North Shore of Oahu – May 14, 2022
This week’s broadcast on Eye on Travel from the Turtle Bay Resort on the North Shore of Oahu. Peter has all the travel updates-the latest on airfares zooming in on the US and the number of people expected to fly… will it be managed by the system? And some good news about the power of the U.S. dollar abroad. Peter then trained in Hawaii tourism. Peter Ingram, CEO of Hawaiian Airlines, on how the airline expanded after the pandemic (and how it continues to be America’s most timely airline). John De Fries, CEO of the Hawaiian Tourism Authority, on how to manage tourism responsibly, and how he explains the future of sustainable tourism. And professional surfer (and surf God) Jamie O’Brien, on the magic and power of the North Shore waves and the lure of the surfing Pipeline. Finally, Peter chats with Jessica Munoz, founder of Ho’ola Na Pua, a unique Hawaii-based foundation dedicated to ending child trafficking, and how visitors to the islands can help in this important work. There’s all of this and more in this edition Eye on Travel.
