Re: Maui Fires - "open a booking discussion"? (by Grant):
I have rented thru Redweek my week at Marriott's Maui Ocean Club for 9/9/23 thru 9/16/23. The Redweek rental # is R1023221 Marriott has sent an e-mail to the owners saying that visitors to Maui are not being well received at this time for several reasons many being obvious. Many in Lahaina have lost their homes and many in this unspeakable tragedy have also have lost loved ones. The last thing they want or need are visitors intruding during this most difficult of times. Another major reason is that according to the Hawaii Dept of Heath the air in and around Lahaina is unsafe and may contain toxic and cancer causing chemicals including asbestos and lead. As a result I am counting on Redweek and Marriott to do the right thing and reimbiurse to the fullest extent all those who have booked in Maui for the next several weeks/months. If there ever was a time when profit should be pushed aside, this is it. Doing the right thing for the residents of Maui and for those who had booked to visit is what needs to be done.
