1. I would risk a trip to Hawaii in maybe 4 weeks

IF the plane had 1 passenger for every 9 seats, everyone was either tested negative or wearing a mask for the flight, I could get a taxi with a full partition between me and the driver (and we both had masks), and I could just check myself into my room... the room was completely disinfected since the last occupant, the maid service (again, with masks) came once a day while I was by myself on the beach, and all food was brought by room service.

Maybe.

Won't happen because the cost would be too high... planes will not fly that empty, etc.

And doesn't do anything about shopping or other tourist activities (where I suspect a lot of locals actually derive income).

And would still be high risk, both for me and for Hawaii.

But until there is a vaccine... would anyone else risk more than this? Would Hawaiians?

I'm a solitary person by nature, so watching a sunset and reading a book sounds good.
