Epic news from Universal<br />
Universal Orlando Resort is to build a fourth park which it claims will<br />
“forever change the theme park entertainment experience”.<br />
The company says Universal’s Epic Universe, which will nearly double<br />
the space it owns in Central Florida, will be "the most immersive and<br />
innovative theme park we have ever built".<br />
Located on a 750-acre site a few miles from the existing resort in<br />
Southwest Orange County, east of Universal Boulevard, It will also feature<br />
an entertainment centre, hotels, shops and restaurants.<br />
“Our vision for Epic Universe is historic,” said Tom Williams, Chairman<br />
and Chief Executive Officer for Universal Parks & Resorts.<br />
News of the new park was announced in early August at an event<br />
attended by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, although there were no<br />
details on the planned rides or other attractions.<br />

When did Hawaiian Airlines<br />
join Visit USA and why?<br />
We joined for 20<strong>19</strong>/20. We<br />
are looking to increase our<br />
awareness of our brand,<br />
product and services to<br />
both consumers and travel<br />
trade partners. We think<br />
Visit USA provides the ideal<br />
platform to do this.<br />
How well do you think the<br />
trade know the airline?<br />
Hawaiian Airlines has been<br />
in service for over 90 years<br />
therefore there is good<br />
awareness of our product.<br />
However, as we are<br />
constantly developing new<br />
routes, updating our fleet<br />
and enhancing our services<br />
we are keen to ensure that<br />
our vital trade partners are<br />
kept fully up to date.<br />
Do you have any events<br />
planned for agents in 20<strong>19</strong>?<br />
We will participate in<br />
various trade events and<br />
consumer shows<br />
throughout the year.<br />
Sum up Hawaii's appeal<br />
With gorgeous scenery,<br />
aloha spirit, stunning<br />
beaches, and exciting<br />
activities, Hawaii can be<br />
enjoyed all year round with<br />
average temperatures<br />
between 23°C to 27°C.<br />
Do you have a favourite<br />
Hawaiian Airlines memory?<br />
On my first-ever flight I<br />
'experienced Hawaii' as<br />
soon as I stepped onboard:<br />
the cabin crew were<br />
wearing fresh plumeria<br />
flowers in their hair.<br />
