The request would have put a 90-day prohibition on individuals from six for the most part Muslim countries and a 120-day restriction on outcasts.
Both judges scrutinised the lawfulness of the boycott, which pundits say is prejudicial.
President Trump demands the move is to prevent psychological militants from entering the United States.
He whined of "phenomenal legal overextend".
A prior adaptation of the request, issued in late January, started disarray and dissents and was obstructed by a judge in Seattle.
In Hawaii, District Judge Derrick Watson referred to "flawed confirmation" in the administration's contention that the boycott involved national security.
US District Judge Theodore Chuang, sitting in Maryland, additionally led it was intended to be a prohibition on Muslims, and along these lines abused the First Amendment.
Hawaii state had contended that the boycott would hurt tourism and the capacity to enrol remote understudies and laborers, while in Maryland the offended parties contended it oppressed Muslims and wrongfully diminished to a number of outcasts being acknowledged for resettlement in the US.

What did the judges say?
Judge Watson said the court had set up a solid probability that, were the boycott to proceed, it would bring about "unsalvageable harm" by disregarding First Amendment insurances against religious separation.
In his 43-page administering, he contended that a "sensible, target onlooker" considering the setting of the Executive Order would close it "was issued with a reason to disapproval a specific religion".
It notes proclamations made by Mr Trump, for example, a 2015 official statement requiring "an aggregate and finish shutdown of Muslims entering the United States", and his guide Rudolph Guiliani, who said in a TV meet in January: "When [Mr Trump] initially declared it, he stated: 'Muslim boycott'. He rang me. He stated: 'Set up a commission together. Demonstrate to me the correct approach to do it legitimately.'"
It likewise says there is a "shortage of confirmation showing a national security reason".
In his decision, Judge Chuang expressed: "To abstain from sowing seeds of division in our country, maintaining this central sacred rule at the centre of our country's character clearly serves a huge open intrigue."
What does Mr Trump say?
Talking at a rally in Nashville, Tennessee on Wednesday evening, Mr Trump said the decision in Hawaii was "defective" and an instance of "uncommon legal exceed".

His organisation contends that the constitution gives the president the ability to suspend movement when he considers it to be in the national enthusiasm of the nation and that neither the underlying or reconsidered orders segregate on the premise of religion.
Equity division attorneys contend that the updated boycott is an expansion of President Obama's turn towards stricter screening of explorers from the six nations.

Donald Trump's first travel boycott was suspended on the grounds that it most likely disregarded the due procedure privileges of people with substantial residency papers and visas. The fight about whether it forced an illegal religious test on specific workers was postponed until one more day. That day has arrived.
In its choice, the government court in Hawaii utilised Mr Trump's own particular words - and the expressions of his counsels - against him. The content of the official request, Judge Derrick Watson held, couldn't be isolated from the setting of the current presidential battle, "Muslim boycott" talk what not. A request that oppresses a few Muslims, he proceeded, is similarly as legitimately inadequate as one that victimises them all.
Presently it's back to this plan's beginning point for the Trump organisation or - maybe a considerably gloomier prospect - back to the Ninth Circuit court of offers, which ruled against the president on the first boycott simply a month ago.
After Mr Trump's past antagonistic legitimate decision, he irately tweeted: "We'll see you in court." Although it took another travel request to arrive, it turns out he was correct.

What occurs next?
Mr Trump said he will take the case "the extent that it needs to go", including to the US Supreme Court.
In both cases, this is just the initial step. An interest against the Hawaii choice would be relied upon to go alongside the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals - a similar court which in February said it would not obstruct a decision by a Seattle court to a large portion of the first travel boycott.
In any case, likewise on Wednesday, five judges at that court composed a letter saying they trusted that choice was a "blunder", and the principal Executive Order was "well inside the forces of the administration".
California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon and Washington state are all participating in legitimate activities against the overhauled boycott.
Washington state Attorney General Bob Ferguson, who is going to a court hearing in Seattle in his endeavours to obstruct the travel boycott, depicted the decision as "incredible news".
"It's exceptionally energising. Now it's a collaboration - numerous claims and different states," he said.
Who does the travel boycott influence?
Under the modified request, nationals of six nations on the first 27 January arrange - Iran, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen - would yet again be liable to a 90-day travel boycott.
Iraq was expelled from the rundown since its legislature had supported visa screening and information sharing, White House authorities said.
The updated arrange likewise lifts an uncertain prohibition on every Syrian displaced person and says Green Card holders (legitimate lasting occupants of the US) from the named nations won't be influenced.
