The 1990 report examines a study done in 1989 to, assess career advancement opportunities for native Hawaiians in the hotel industry. The study, which was based on a literature review and two rounds of key informant interviews, indicated that native Hawaiian managers are still underrepresented in Hawaii's hotel industry. The Hawaii state legislature appropriated funds to provide tourism training to 177 participants in a pilot series of professional seminars called the School of Travel Industry Management. (TIM). A 6-year action plan for TIM and 16 program improvement recommendations were also developed. The 1991 report looks at a study that assessed training needs at Honolulu International Airport (HIA). In general, most of the airport's employees were found to need training in public relations, safety, control of substance abuse, literacy, foreign language brush-up, and career upgrade. A second study examined the in-housetraining dimension in Hawaii's visitor industry. The study findings were analyzed, and specific recommendations were developed. The 1992 report examines the role of retail salespeople in Hawaii's visitor industry. The TTC also conducted a survey to identify human resource management training programs in Hawaii's visitor sector. The 1993 report examines the way Hawaii's TTC continues to address the human resource component in economic development and to improve career development and employment opportunities for workers in Hawaii's visitor industry. The TTC issued 8 recommendations for improving tourism training in Hawaii and 26 guidelines for addressing the tourism training needs identified by TTC studies.

The Council and Alu Like intend that the findings of this study will be used to implement actions which will encourage the greater participation and advancement of Native Hawaiians in hotel careers. Therefore, the Council's recommendations have been transmitted to Alu Like for its consideration. The full report, including the recommendations, is on file with Alu Like. This study reflects the Council's and Alu Like's interest and concern for greater participation of Native Hawaiians in Hawaii's premiere visitor industry, especially giving it a distinct Island character. The assumption of this study is that this Island character, which is represented by the participation of all Island residents and especially Native Hawaiians, helps to define the image of the hotel industry and the state as a whole to the rest of the world, and should be enhanced.

  • How Tourism Began in Hawaii
    Creating “Paradise of the Pacific”: How Tourism Began in Hawaii by James Mak Working Paper No. 2015-1 February 3, 2015 UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MANOA 2424 MAILE WAY, ROOM 540 • HONOLULU, HAWAI‘I 96822 WWW.UHERO.HAWAII.EDU WORKING PAPERS ARE PRELIMINARY MATERIALS CIRCULATED TO STIMULATE DISCUSSION AND CRITICAL COMMENT. THE VIEWS EXPRESSED ARE THOSE OF THE INDIVIDUAL AUTHORS. Creating “Paradise of the Pacific”: How Tourism Began in Hawaii James Mak Professor Emeritus of Economics and Fellow, University of Hawaii Economic Research Organization University of Hawaii at Manoa Honolulu, HI. 96822 U.S.A. February 3, 2015 Abstract This article recounts the early years of one of the most successful tourist destinations in the world, Hawaii, from about 1870 to 1940. Tourism began in Hawaii when faster and more predictable steamships replaced sailing vessels in trans-Pacific travel. Governments (international, national, and local) were influential in shaping the way Hawaii tourism developed, from government mail subsidies to steamship companies, local funding for tourism promotion, and America’s protective legislation on domestic shipping. Hawaii also reaped a windfall from its location at the crossroads of the major trade routes in the Pacific region. The article concludes with policy lessons. Key words: Hawaii, tourism, tourism development Acknowledgement: I thank Dore Minatodani, Senior Librarian, Hawaiian Collection at the University of Hawaii-Manoa Library, for her kind assistance. 1 Introduction Hawaii is a dream vacation destination for millions of people around the world. U.S. News and World Report rates Maui the best vacation destination in the U.S.1 Maui is also rated fourth best place to visit in the world, the second best place to honeymoon, and the best summer vacation destination.2 Kauai is second in the world in having the best beaches; Honolulu is number five in best family vacations; and the island of Hawaii (Big Island) is fourteenth in the best islands category.

  • The Outrigger Story
    The Outrigger Story Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach, 2012 I discovered an island™. I discovered Outrigger. A people steeped in tradition. Nurtured by the land. With gentle respect for the beauty that frames every day. I wasn’t the first to step onto its soil. But I feel I’ve found this island. At the heart of Outrigger Hotels & Resorts lies the spirit of discovery. For more than 60 years, we have shared a warm island welcome with our guests: today we strive to also bring them meaningful experiences; ones that will touch their hearts and create lifetime memories. Welcome to Outrigger. The Outrigger Story In 2012, Outrigger Enterprises Group celebrates 65 years of hospitality. What is today a top multi-branded, multi-faceted hotel management company in the Asia-Pacific region began as the dream of Roy C. Kelley, who pioneered the concept of family-style hotel rooms in Waikiki. Together with his wife, Estelle, he helped bring the dream of a vacation in paradise within the reach of the everyday traveler. In so doing, he forever changed the face of Hawaii’s visitor industry. Boulevard, Montegue Hall at Punahou School, the old The Kelley Family Halekulani Hotel, and the former Waikiki Theater. Entrepreneurs at heart, in 1932 the Kelleys went into part-time business for themselves by constructing a six-room apartment building in Waikiki. Other apartment buildings soon followed. During this time, however, the only hotels available to visitors in Waikiki were the Royal Hawaiian, the Halekulani and the Moana – all catering to the wealthy and well to do.
