Have I forgot anything?
My family and I are going to Ohau (Waikiki) in three weeks? I have:
1. airline tickets
2. money (atm, credit card)
3. booked our tours
4. purchased travel insurance
5. booked our hotel
6. no rental car (we're walking)
Is there anything I have forgotten? We'll pack a couple days prior. Thanks!!!

A backup list of the numbers for all the credit cards etc. that you're carrying, along with the 800 phone numbers you'd need if you, um, lost your wallet.
Xerox of your ID and copy of your itinerary to put inside your suitcase in case it takes a slightly different trip than you do.
Maps, tour guides, itineraries, notes about places to go and things to do.
Good shoes for climbing up Diamond Head (sturdy sneakers will do). Otherwise, just flip-flops.
Extra bathing suits, you can never have too many in Hawaii. Or plan on buying them there.

I don't think you need a passport. I assume you are a US citizen. You could make a copy of your DL however. What about sun tan lotion, aloe vera, a guidebook, something to do or read on the plane, plenty of film. Good planning will prevent you from getting "all shook up" Thank you, thank you very much

An Atlas. Apparently, Hawaii now requires a passport. Unless required to do so, why would someome suggest you run the risk of losing your passport when you don't need it.
Make sure you bring a really good sunblock and some kind of aloe gel. Getting a sunburn is almost an inevitablity in Hawaii, even if you are careful.

i'm not sure about passports, but i'm pretty sure it's illegal to photocopy a driver's license unless you do it at a percentage other than 100%. In either case, I'm not sure a photocopy of either the license or the passport will get you on a plane given how much easier it would be to forge either. I think the photocopy of a passport will only help you at a US Embassy in an effort to get a temporary passport, which probably isn't the case if you're actually in the US.
The alternative is to obtain a replacement license, but that too is illegal to possess multiple licenses, even if they are the same.

If anyone wears glasses, and is "blind" without them, it's good to carry a "cheapie" second pair just in case the regular pair is demolished somehow. Most people only carry a copy of their prescription, if that, but certain prescriptions can take several days to fill (like mine), and I sure wouldn't want to "lose" a couple of days of my vacation because I couldn't see!

Ryan..you should refrain from sarcastic replies unless you know for a fact the original poster is a u.s. citizen ...because Hawaii DOES require a passport...for those who are not U.S. citizens.
Nobody, by the way, suggested it was required...except you, in your sarcasm.
