Following the U.S. visa exemption, travel agencies have rolled out numerous discounted packages. In partnership with China Airlines, the Hawaii Tourism Bureau Taiwan Office has launched three direct charter flights to Hawaii. For the first flight departing on January 31st, they are introducing a “Love Declaration Ceremony” for the very first time — a traditional Polynesian wedding ritual from Hawaii. This is targeted at mature couples who were unable to go on a honeymoon abroad for various reasons in the past, or couples who have long wished to hold their wedding overseas but couldn’t due to traditional constraints. Come to Hawaii to renew your vows of love while enjoying a “second honeymoon.”

Travelers joining the inaugural “Love Me Again” package will each receive an afternoon tea treat at the premium five-star Moana Surfrider Hotel, compliments of the Hawaii Tourism Bureau (valued at NT$1,200). In addition, the bureau has gone the extra mile by exclusively booking the Kualoa Ranch and hiring Hawaiian elders to conduct a “Love Declaration Ceremony” just for the passengers on this charter. The 7-day, 5-night package is priced at NT$79,900, including taxes and fees.

The ceremony begins as the couples step barefoot onto the flower-strewn beach. Under the witness of the blue sea and sky, hula dancers lead the procession, accompanied by ukulele music playing the Hawaiian wedding song — Elvis Presley’s “Blue Hawaii.” The elder then presides over and conducts a series of rituals. The most touching moment is when the couple’s foreheads and noses touch as they exchange breaths, pledging to spend their lives together. Additionally, another China Airlines charter flight to Hawaii is available on February 5th.
