Maui’s Occupancy Rate 55.9% and American Airlines Gives Good Deals

If you’ve been putting off your trip to Maui, now might be the time to get on the plane. After the fourth month in a row of record lows in hotel occupancy rates, Maui’s hotels and restaurants are trying their hardest to attract visitors.

I’d say it’s time to make some plans and lock in those low rates … it doesn’t look like we’ve hit bottom yet.

Just in time, American Airlines started a new Maui price promotion:

For flights made through Dec. 16, 2009, (blackout dates: 10/2-10/25 and 11/20-12/ 1), some sample fares include:

Fresno flights to Maui: $268
Atlanta flights to Maui: $333
Washington DC flights to Maui: $333
