Data will be presented in five major sections. The first section includes a Summary comparing relevant data from each of the four market areas. This will be followed by detailed data for each market area – Eastern U.S., Western U.S., Canada and Japan. The exact wording of the survey question used to compile each chart is included at the bottom of each chart within the individual market area.

Excluding the Summary section, charts in each set of the market sections appear in the identical order. Since the Summary section includes only data that can be compared across all markets, some charts have been excluded; the progression, however is maintained. Charts in each market section appear in the following order:

• Demographics – Age• Demographics – Median Age• Demographics – Income• Demographics – Median Income• Demographics – Long Distance Overnight Trips in Past 12 Months (Past 24 Months for Japan)• Demographics – Median Number of Long Distance Overnight Trips in Past 12 Months (Past 24 Months for Japan)• Destination Consideration for Next Leisure Vacation• Reasons for Taking a Leisure Vacation• Attributes Important in Choosing a Destination• Attributes Important in Choosing a Destination (Importance vs. Applies to Hawai’i)• Destination Attributes – Competitive Comparisons (competitive destinations vary by market)• Destination Attributes – Competitive Comparisons (point differences)• Impression of Hawai’i

Executive Summ

ary• With an average age of 47, Canadian visitors are the oldest and at 44, Western U.S. visitors are the youngest. Eastern U.S.

and Japanese visitors are similarly aged at 45 years.

• Travelers to Hawai’i from all markets tend to be more affluent as their average annual household incomes exceed the national averages in each of their respective countries.

• Hawai’i is at the top of the consideration list for both Western U.S. and Japanese travelers. Hawai’i is number two behind Europe on the consideration list for Canada and number four among Eastern U.S. travelers behind Florida, the Caribbean, California, Las Vegas and the U.K.

• Among the 18 attributes (20 for the Japan market) important in choosing a leisure destination, Hawai’i meets or exceeds expectations among Eastern U.S. visitors as being romantic; among Western U.S. and Canadian visitors as a good place for family and children and as being romantic; and among Japanese visitors as a good place for family and children, a great place to get away from it all, as being romantic, a great place for shopping and ease of communicating in the travelers native language.

• While there is variance among the markets, most have the impression that Hawai’i is able to deliver high levels of relaxation and romance, recreational activities (including water sports, zip lining, snorkeling, hiking, biking, etc.), family friendly activities and State or National parks and beaches. Shopping is also rated highly among the Japanese market.

• Between 40% and 50% of visitors from all markets, excluding the Eastern U.S., have visited Hawai’i in the past 36 months and of those between 50% and 65% have visited in the past 12 months. Only about 20% of Eastern U.S. visitors have visited in the past 36 months with about 30% visiting in the past 12. Eastern U.S. visitors are most likely to visit Hawai’i inthe Summer, while those in the Western U.S. are most likely to visit in the fall. The Canadians are least likely to visit in the Summer and visitors from Japan travel fairly evenly throughout the seasons.

• A majority of visitors from the Western U.S., Canada and Japan plan to visit Hawai’i again in the next 24 months, with about 70% planning to do so in the next 12 months. Only about 25% of Eastern U.S. visitors plan to visit in the next 24 months and about half of those plan to do so in the next 12 months. The primary reason Eastern U.S. visitors seem to be lagging behind the other markets is the cost of airfare and hotels as well as the time it takes to get to Hawai’i. They feelthey can get a better value at other destinations.

Executive Summ

ary

• A majority of visitors from all four markets plan to visit O’ahu on their next trip to Hawai’i. Similar percentages of visitors from the Eastern U.S., Western U.S. and Canada also plan to visit the islands of Hawai’i and Maui. Visitors from Japan overwhelmingly plan to visit O’ahu and, while they plan to visit the other islands at a much lower rate than they do O’ahu, they plan to visit all islands except Kua’i and Moloka’i at a greater rate than visitors from the other markets.

• Visitors from all markets primarily plan to stay in a hotel. Visitors from Canada, however are least likely to stay in a hotel and most likely to stay in a condo.

• As might be expected, at about five visits, visitors from the Western U.S. have made the most lifetime visits to Hawai’i, followed by Canadian visitors also at about five lifetime visits and Japanese visitors at about four. Visitors from the Eastern U.S. have only made between two and three visits to Hawai’i in their lifetimes.

• Visitors from all four markets keep returning to Hawai’i because of its stunning natural beauty, the great weather and great beaches. They also feel it is safe and they love to experience the culture. Canadians also feel that Hawai’i is a great value and have noticed that there are more flights from cities closer to their home.

• At just about $4,800, Japanese visitors spend the most per trip which is likely due to the large percentage that is spent on shopping. Among all markets they have the largest share of spending for shopping. A large portion of their travel dollar also goes toward transportation. Canadians spend about $4,100, which is likely due to the their longer length of stay –about 12 days. Similar to the Canadians, those from the Eastern U.S. stay about 9 days and spend about $4,100. Western U.S. visitors spend the least on transportation and thus spend the least overall - about $3,500.

• Visitors from all four markets rate their last visit to Hawai’i 6.5 or higher on an excellence scale of 8 and, excluding the Eastern U.S., one-third or more say they are very likely to return in the next 24 months. Almost 40% of the Eastern U.S. visitors say they are somewhat or very likely to return to Hawai’i in the next 24 months.

Heard about new things to do since my last visit

It is a tradition. I always visit Hawai'i

I have noticed there are more flights from cities closer to my home

To participate in an event or a festival

Many of the hotels and timeshares have been recentlyrenovated/refreshed

I find that Hawai'i is a great value

I spent my honeymoon there

Feels like coming home again
