Cassie, Team Coordinator for Sandra Day O'Connor Football from Phoenix, Arizona
"Kalei and his team at Sports Travel went above and beyond any expectations we could have ever had with a travel agent. Planning a trip to Oahu for over 100 people... from Phoenix... was a difficult task to say the least. Kalei made it go so smooth. Kalei helped book everything from the airline, hotel and the bussing while the team was on the island. I worked with Kalei for almost a year and there wasn’t a time he didn’t get back to me promptly-even with the time difference! He walked me, with ease, through some pretty stressful stages of planning the trip and was very patient. We were extremely happy with all of the companies who worked with us over the course of the week we were there. Thank you, Kalei and your team, for making our varsity football team’s experience to your beautiful home a successful one! I know our boys will never forget it!"
Bob and Charlene Christenson, Parents of Olympic Volleyball Player Micah Christenson

"Linelle, Kalei and the rest of the group at Sports Travel Hawaii are simply the best. I’ve been working with them for the past few years and they continue to do top notch work with both my airfare and hotel needs. Give this group hotel and airfare preferences, along with dates of travel and they take care of it with ease. Traveling anywhere can be a headache and a hassle, but not when using Sports Travel Hawaii. When I head out on a road-trip to broadcast Hawai’i Volleyball, I know every little detail has been taken care of and there’s nothing to worry about. The stress of figuring out how to get back home after the postseason is over goes away knowing I can count on Sports Travel Hawaii to take care of those last second arrangements."
Cedric L. Solice, Syracuse University Women’s Basketball Director of Basketball Operations/Assistant Strength Coach
"Syracuse University Women's Basketball was set to travel to Boise, ID and Honolulu, HI for a three game swing. Initial travel arrangements needed to be completely adjusted at the last minute. The team at Sports Travel Hawaii came through in the last hour and managed to secure highly reasonable travel accommodations for the team. Through their tireless efforts the Syracuse Women's Basketball team was able to travel literally across the country during reasonable travel hours while implementing as many cost saving procedures as financially possible in a short period of time. The Sports Travel Hawaii staff is as friendly and accommodating as any I have ever worked during my tenure with Syracuse University Women's Basketball. They receive my highest professional and personal recommendation."

Robin Harlow, Senior Director of Sales for
AQUA Hotels and Resorts
“Linelle is an excellent travel arranger/agent as I have been working with her over the past few years. I do a great deal of traveling and she handles all of my travel arrangements. Linelle provides thorough insight and pays attention to detail. She is responsive and pleasant to work with and will often make suggestions that results in better routing then originally asked. She is a tireless advocate to insure that we get the best pricing available. I was recently in Sacramento stranded due to fog conditions and she was relentless in getting me rebooked on another flight so that I would make it home in time to be with my family for the weekend. I now have my family and friends in New York using her services too!”

Kahala Kabalis-Hoke - Chaminade University Women's Volleyball Head Coach; Hi Intensity Volleyball Club Director and Head Coach
"Linelle and Sports Travel Hawaii have been an amazing partner to work with for all our team travel needs including our group air travel, rental vans, hotels, and individual parents and player travels. They understands that it's not always easy to book an airfare group of 10-15 to the same destination on the same time frame and they are always eager to help our families book their deviations to include their own personal travel for reasons such as college visits, or vacation. Sports Travel Hawaii helps to eliminate much of the stress out of planning group travel and it's absolutely refreshing to work with their fun and friendly team. Linelle and her team have been a pleasure to work with, and I highly recommend their services to anyone needing travel assistance."
