US President Barack Obama and his family arrived early Saturday in Hawaii where they will spend the Christmas holiday.
Air Force One landed at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam at 12:06 am (1006 GMT) after a 10-hour flight from Washington.
Before leaving the US capital on Friday, Obama urged lawmakers to pass a scaled-down tax package to avert a so-called fiscal cliff — a combination of stiff tax hikes and spending cuts that some economists warn could plunge the United States into a new recession.
