I’ve heard of the new travel restrictions. It basically ruined my Spring Break plans because I do not even own a passport, didn’t have enough time to get one, and didn’t know how to begin the process in the first place. Travelling internationally is stressful enough. With the threats of international terrorism and the scariest though of all (not being allowed to return due to a paperwork error) hanging over your head, its surprising to me anyone travels at all these days. The good news is that apparently this is not just effecting my travel plans and international travel has seena shap declien whle domestic travel has risen in the last few months. Hawain Beach Rentals has the hook up on a great domestic vacation offering maui condos. (And I love them because they are environmentally friendly, and if you read this blog, then you already know what a nut I am about the environment. Furthermore, these vacations ca be custom tailored to you, making for a vacation that is not only fun but very unique. I have never been to Hawaii, and I am absolutely dieing to go.

KAUAI, HI–(MARKET WIRE)–Feb 19, 2007 — Recommendations by the 9/11 Commission have led to a new law that requires US citizens returning to the country by air to show a passport. As of 2006, only a quarter of the American public actually held a passport. Hawaiian Beach Rentals recently conducted an informal survey that projected a marked increase in domestic travel as a result of the new passport legislation.
In accordance with the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, the passport requirement is a part of the states’ and Homeland Security’s Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative. Charles Koehl of Hawaiian Beach Rentals states, “Our staff recently conducted an informal survey of our customers. In light of the new passport regulations, more than half the customers questioned intend to make domestic travel arrangements as opposed to scheduling international travel. In fact, one of our customers who’s spent her life traveling the south pacific told us that as long as her favorite Kauai condo is available, there’s really no need to leave the US.”
As early as January 1, 2008, the Department of Homeland Security expects to have similar passport requirements that apply to sea travel. Traveling to domestic destinations such as an all-inclusive Kauai vacation package will allow tourists to plan exotic, luxurious, and hassle-free vacations by air or sea without having to obtain a passport.
Mr. Koehl further says, “American travelers now find it easier to come to Hawaii than other international destinations, but still want a customized experience that only local people can help coordinate. Hawaiian Beach Rentals offers accommodations such as Kauai vacation rental homes, condos and hotels, as well as airfare and car rentals to customers wanting to travel to Hawaii. Our services include up to date local information about Hawaii and the ability for customers to quickly and easily pay for their vacation online via a secure payment process.” Additional information and incredible color photos of domestic travel destinations in Hawaii are available online at Hawaiian Beach Rentals.
