Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights to Hawaii from the mainland U.S. during the off-peak months of January and February, specifically targeting routes like Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu (HNL) for better availability.

Sweet Spot

You can fly from the West Coast (e.g., Los Angeles) to Hawaii for 50,000 Hawaiian Airlines miles round-trip, which typically costs around $600 in cash.

Routing Trick

You can book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Tahiti (PPT) via Honolulu (HNL) for 50,000 miles, saving 10,000 miles compared to a direct award from the mainland U.S. to Tahiti, which typically costs 60,000 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid booking flights with Hawaiian Airlines for routes to the continental U.S. as they often impose high fees, including a $25 fee for checked bags and a $35 fee for seat selection.
