Wow man, that's brutal! When we were in Hawaii a few weeks ago some of the locals were complaining about this but I had no idea it was so much. We ended up taking a cruise to get to 5 ports on 4 islands because it was cheaper than flying and it included all our food and lodging!

Yea ... those locals weren't lying LOL ... it's the truth ... the cost to get from one island to the next is a bit pricey ... hence why when you speak to some locals ... many people are surprised to hear how some never visit any of the other outer islands ... it's because along with high airfare cost .. the hotel cost is crazy expensive (with the 4% GET tax, and 10% TAT tax ... so on top of the regular hotel cost, it's 14% taxes by government plus usually all hotels tack on a resort fee that can be as much as $50 per night). It's insane haha .. I should do up a post on the ridiculous Hawaii hotel prices.
