Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book award flights to Hawaii for the best availability during the low season from mid-April to early June, especially on routes like Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu (HNL).
Sweet Spot
You can fly round-trip from the West Coast to Hawaii for just 30,000 Hawaiian Airlines miles, which typically costs around $500 in cash.
Routing Trick
Book a round trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Sydney (SYD) via Honolulu (HNL) to utilize Hawaiian Airlines' routing rules, allowing you to save approximately 5,000 miles compared to a direct LAX-SYD ticket, as the stopover in HNL is included at no additional mileage cost.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Hawaiian Airlines on routes to the mainland U.S. as they charge a $200 fee for changes to award tickets.
