Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights to Hawaii during the low season, specifically from mid-April to mid-June or September to early November, for the best availability and fewer miles required, especially for routes like Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu (HNL).
Sweet Spot
You can redeem 250,000 Hawaiian Airlines miles for a round-trip business class flight from the mainland U.S. to Tahiti, which typically costs around $3,000 in cash, providing exceptional value.
Routing Trick
You can book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to New York City (JFK) via Honolulu (HNL) for 125,000 miles instead of the standard 160,000 miles for a direct LAX-JFK flight, saving you 35,000 miles.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid Hawaiian Airlines for transpacific routes, as they often impose high fees; for example, a round-trip award ticket from the U.S. mainland to Hawaii can incur up to $200 in taxes and fees.
