A ʻo kēlā $ 65 biliona kahi helu makahiki a aia wale nō ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.

He ʻoihana e ulu nei ka huakaʻi kāne kāne a male wahine no nā makahiki he 30 i hala iho nei, e laha ana i nā mea a pau mai nā hoʻomaha hoʻomaha ʻana a i nā wahi huakaʻi kiʻekiʻe.

Akā i kēia manawa wale nō ua ulu nui ka ʻoihana, wahi a nā loea. ʻO ka ʻoihana huakaʻi i kēia manawa he nui nā makasina a me nā puke kālepa i hoʻolaʻa ʻia i nā huakaʻi gay a me ka wahine. Ua hoʻohui pū nā ʻoihana kūʻai lehulehu i nā keʻena kūʻai kūʻai hoʻolaʻa LGBT i mea e loaʻa ai kahi ʻāpana o kēlā $65 biliona pai.

"Ma hope o nā makahiki he nui o ka hoʻokae, makemake nui nā kāne a me nā wahine i nā ʻoihana e mālama iā lākou me ka mahalo a hana i ka mea e hiki ai ke hoʻokipa iā lākou," i ʻōlelo ʻia ʻo Tom Nibbio, ka luna kūʻai aku me ka International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association. "A iā lākou ka mana kūʻai e hōʻike."

ʻO nā hui nui e like me ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa (AMR: 8.77, +0.24, + 2.81%) a me ke kaulahao hōkele ʻo Wyndram Worldwide (WYN: 21.48, -0.05, -0.23%), mea nona nā kaulahao hōkele he 10 me Ramada lāua ʻo Howard Johnson, hoʻolaʻa nā limahana manawa i ke kūʻai aku ʻana a me ka lawelawe ʻana i nā mea kūʻai aku LGBT. Hana ka limahana i nā mea āpau mai nā pūʻulu hoʻomaha a hōʻoia i ka hāʻawi ʻana o kā lākou ʻoihana hui i nā manawaleʻa kūpono.

"ʻO mākou wale nō ka nui o kā mākou ʻoihana no nā makahiki he nui," wahi a George Carrancho, he limahana manawa piha me ka Hui Ānuenue ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. "I kēia manawa he papahana like ka nui o kā mākou mau hoʻokūkū, akā pinepine mākou i ka mahalo no ka mea ʻo mākou ka lōʻihi loa."

I kēia manawa aia ka lehulehu o nā hui ʻē aʻe e kūʻai pololei aku ana i nā mea kūʻai aku LGBT - nā ʻoihana ʻelua a me nā kāne a me nā hui nui.

Ma mua o kēia mahina ma ka HX Gay Travel Expo ma New York, he 75 mau hui, nā kūlanakauhale a me nā ʻāina i hoʻouna aku i nā ʻelele e like me American Express (AXP: 48.02, +0.01, + 0.02%), Travelocity a me PlanetOut Inc.

"Ke manaʻo nei au e hoʻāʻo maoli nei ʻo ʻAmelika e loaʻa i kahi ala e hiki ai iā lākou me mākou," wahi a Matthew Bank, ka luna nui o HX Media, nāna e hoʻokele i ka hanana ma 12 mau wahi ma US a me Kanada. Ua kūʻai ka hui o Bank i ka expo i kekahi mau makahiki i hala aku nei a ke manaʻo nei ʻo ia e hoʻohui i nā kūlanakauhale hou i ka wā e hiki mai ana.

Ua ʻōlelo ka loea huakaʻi ʻo Nibbio e hele ana nā ʻoihana ma hope o nā mea kūʻai aku LGBT ma muli o ke kiʻekiʻe o ka loaʻa kālā a me ka kūpaʻa nui i loaʻa i nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā wahine wahine. No ka mea ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke loaʻa nā keiki me ka ʻole o ka hoʻohana ʻana a i ʻole ma o nā ʻano hana ʻē aʻe, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka loaʻa kālā hoʻokuʻu ʻana i nā kāne kāne a me nā lesbians i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me kā lākou mau kāne heterosexual. A ma ka helu helu, hele lākou ma mua o nā kāne pololei.

"Kūleʻa loa mākou a kamaʻilio mākou i waena o nā hoa e like me nā mea ʻē aʻe," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. "Inā lohe mākou i nā mea maikaʻi e pili ana i kahi ʻoihana, a i ʻole kahi huakaʻi, hōʻoia ʻia e haʻi mākou i kēlā me kēia kanaka a hoʻi paha iā mākou iho."

ʻAʻole pili pono nā hui āpau me ke kaiāulu gay. ʻO ka Camp Rights Rights Campaign, kahi hui waiwai ʻole e lobbies no nā kāne a me nā pono wahine, e hoʻopuka i kēlā me kēia makahiki "Corporate Equality Index" e ana i nā hana a nā hui me ke kaiāulu LGBT ma kahi pālākiō o 0-100.

ʻO Marilee McInnis, waha ʻōlelo me Southwest Airlines (LUV: 13.24, -0.10, -0.74%) i ʻōlelo ʻaʻole hauʻoli ka mea lawelawe mokulele me kāna kūlana 78 i hoʻokahi makahiki i hala, no laila hui pū ka hui i kahi hui o 30 mau limahana e hana pehea lākou hiki ke hoʻomaikaʻi. Hoʻonohonoho ʻia ka ʻoihana 83 e ka HRC ma nā pilikia LGBT.

Loaʻa i nā ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me Wyndram kahi helu "100" me ka HRC.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Cordey Lash, ʻo LGBT Global Sales Manager no Wyndram Hotel Group, ʻaʻole ʻo Wyndram wale nō e kūʻai pololei aku i nā mea kūʻai aku wahine a wahine wahine, akā ʻo kā lākou poʻe limahana mua e hele i waena o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa loea e pili ana pehea e hana ai i kahi male kāne e nānā ana.

"I ka hopena, mālama ʻoe iā lākou e like me nā mea kūʻai aku ʻē aʻe, akā hoʻokau mākou i kēlā me kēia limahana ma o ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻana i nā ʻano mea like ʻole e maopopo ai," i ʻōlelo ʻo Lash.

Ke ulu nei nō hoʻi ka ʻoihana, i ʻōlelo ʻia e ka poʻe loea. Me ka hele ʻana o ke kānāwai hānai a me ka male ma kekahi mau mokuʻāina, loaʻa nā keiki a nā kāne a me nā wahine.

ʻOiai ke kū nei nā lālani holoholo kāne hoʻokahi e like me Atlantis a me Olivia, a ke noho nei nā kahakai kahakai a wahine wahine a hana i nā ʻoihana maikaʻi, nā huakaʻi hele a me nā wahine a me nā kaulahao hōkele e ʻohana nei.

ʻO kekahi o lākou ʻo R Family Vacations, hoʻokumu ʻia e ka mea hōʻike haʻi ʻōlelo mua ʻo Rosie O'Donnell. Hoʻonohonoho ka ʻoihana i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i nā pūʻulu hoʻomaha no ka ʻohana kāne a male wahine.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Gregg Kaminsky, ka mea hui pū o R Family Vacations, ua manaʻo ka hui e loaʻa he 2,500 poʻe i kāna huakaʻi i kēia mahina ʻo Iune, me nā keiki he 600.

"ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ma ʻAmelika ʻoi aku kā mākou aloha aloha ma mua o ʻelima mau makahiki i hala," i ʻōlelo ʻo Kaminisky. "I kēia lā he nui aku ka ʻike o nā kāne a me nā wahine ma ka wahi hana a me ko lākou mau kaiāulu. Akā, ke nānā nei kēia mau kāne e hui me nā ʻohana ʻē aʻe a no laila he manawa kūpono kēia na lākou e hana pēlā. "

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kaminsky he mea nui nā wā hoʻomaha no nā keiki pū kekahi, ʻaʻole e launa pinepine me nā ʻohana kāne like.

"Maopopo iā ʻoe, ʻo kekahi o kā mākou mau kāne i hele mai mai nā kauhale liʻiliʻi kahi i ʻike nui ʻole ai lākou i nā ʻohana ʻē aʻe," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. "ʻO kēia kahi manawa kūpono e hui ai nā keiki me nā keiki ʻē aʻe e like me lākou iho. Loaʻa iā mākou he nui o nā ʻōpio i kā mākou holoholo, a ʻike mākou ke hele nei lākou i ka mea ʻoi aku ka mana ma hope o ka hele ʻana i kēia mau wā hoʻomaha. "

Ke komo nei nā kūlanakauhale a me nā ʻāina āpau i ka hana kūʻai aku. ʻElima a ʻumi mau makahiki paha i hala aku nei, ʻo ka huakaʻi kiʻekiʻe loa ma waena o ka honua no ka poʻe huakaʻi wahine a wahine wahine hoʻi ʻo ʻAmekekama. Ua hoʻololi ʻia i kēia manawa me nā wahi lehulehu e hakakā ana no ke kālā kāne a me ka wahine wahine, e like me Kanada Kelemania, Palani a me nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe o ʻEulopa.

Hoʻokahi ʻāina i hōʻike ʻole ʻia ma laila ʻo Jamaica, akā no ke kumu kūpono. Ua ao aku ka International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association i kona mau lālā mai hele i Jamaica ma muli o nā pilikia palekana.

"Aia kekahi mau moʻolelo o ka bashing gay ma Jamaica," wahi a Nibbio. "Minamina, he ʻāina homophobic maikaʻi ʻo Jamaica, no laila ʻōlelo mākou i ka poʻe e hōʻalo."

Ua hōʻole ka consulate Jamaican ma New York e haʻi manaʻo no kēia moʻolelo.

Ua pilikia ka hoʻomaha ʻana o ka ʻohana R ma Bahamas a me Bermuda, akā ʻaʻole kēlā me kēlā me kēia aupuni.

"Ua hoʻoholo mākou ʻaʻole e kipa i kēlā mau wahi no ka mea, aia, he keiki kā mākou ma luna o ka moku a ʻaʻole maikaʻi ia no lākou e ʻike ai," i ʻōlelo ʻo Kaminsky. “Maʻaneʻi lākou e leʻaleʻa ai.”
