Smart Recommendations
Best Time to Book
Book your award flights to Hawaii for travel during the off-peak season, specifically from mid-April to mid-June or September to early November, when availability tends to be higher and fewer miles may be required for routes like Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu (HNL).
Sweet Spot
You can redeem 80,000 Hawaiian Airlines miles for a round-trip first-class ticket from the West Coast to Hawaii, which typically costs around $1,500 in cash.
Routing Trick
Use Hawaiian Airlines to book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Sydney (SYD) via Honolulu (HNL) instead of directly from LAX to SYD, saving approximately 4,000 miles on the round-trip by leveraging the stopover in Hawaii.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines, as they frequently charge high fees such as a $65 carry-on bag fee and a $100 fee for changing or canceling a flight, which can add significantly to your travel costs.
