Total expenditures by visitors who came to Maui for the first nine months of 2012 has reached $2.7 billion, 19.9% more than the same time last year, according to preliminary statistics released today by the Hawaii Tourism Authority.

Momentum anticipated to continue with increases in airlift due to new routes by Hawaiian Airlines from Sapporo and Brisbane, Jetstar from Melbourne, and Allegiant from the West Coast, including a Bellingham to Kahului flight.

These new routes are all servicing secondary cities, which will provide greater ease of access for visitors to come to the Hawaiian Islands.

Festivals and events, including the EA Sports Maui Invitational, will also help to draw visitors this quarter,” continued McCartney.
