We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii’s most-visited tourist destination, has finally reopened after the recent eruption of the Kilauea volcano.

    For many weeks, the volcanic activity in the area caused eruptions, earthquakes, volcanic ash in the skies, and even destroyed hundreds of nearby homes.  And the park was forced to close for 135 days.

    But that’s all in the past!  So if you’re ready to book that dream trip to Hawaii, getting there cheaply is easy with miles & points!

    Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island Is the State’s Most-Visited Tourist Spot

    Although the effects of the Kilauea eruption were devastating, it’s interesting to see the ways in which it changed much of the landscape of the national park.

    The tour company KapohoKine Adventures, for example, announced 2 new tours that will take participants to explore the areas in the park that were affected.  In particular, the Kilauea caldera widened and now covers more than 1 square mile, according to the US Geological Survey.  And there’s a new volcanic crater that’s over 1,000 feet deep!

    I don’t know about you, but all of that sounds pretty neat.  Plus, the volcano is less likely to erupt again so soon, so I’m sure visiting the area wouldn’t be too risky, right? 😉
