Hi

My fiancé n me is planning to have our wedding n honeymoon in Hawaii. But the question is would I have issue coming back from the Hawaii?

I will first enter the united state with my K1 in LA n will then fly from LA to Hawaii on a later date, as the k1 is only a one time entry, would I have any issue when coming back from Hawaii?

Anyway has experience this before?

I really want to ensure is ok before we plan for our small wedding in Hawaii..

Thank u

Carolyn

This was posted a few months back. I questioned it myself much to the chagrin of some fellow forumers who questioned my citizenship as an American if I did not know that Hawaii is a state of the US.

But, a couple of upstanding, allegedly, usernames, stated that they have personally done so with no issues with the authorities.

Gowon, eventhough has an affinity to running with scissors, would just honeymoon in one of our mainland stateparks instead and save the Hawaiian trip for after the AP. Hawaii is not going away. Oh wait, is it?

I think of worst case scenarios, so let's say flight gets diverted to somewhere else. Now what? Remember 9/11? If someone had suggested that the entire USA airspace can be closed down before 9/11 they would be laughed out of town.

You'll be just fine. So long as you fly nonstop from/to the mainland, you can travel to any of the 50 states.

Aloha and congratulations!!!

Hawaii is still in the USA. You are not flying out of the country.

So no worries. ;)

ha, I'm doing the reverse, POE in Hawaii, then wedding in Las Vegas, and then moving back to live in Hawaii. I can understand the confusion as its a fair distance from the mainland.

I have previously POE as a tourist via Hawaii, I noticed this the other day when I was listing my trips to the USA by going through my passports and noted that I had an entry stamp in Hawaii, but not for when we landed in San Francisco a few days later. took me a few moments to click, flights from Hawaii to the US mainland are considered domestic flights. no immigration. :)
