Best Time to Book
To maximize your chances of finding award availability, book your Hawaiian Airlines flights to popular routes like Honolulu (HNL) from Los Angeles (LAX) or San Francisco (SFO) at least 6 months in advance, particularly targeting travel dates during the off-peak months of April and September.
Sweet Spot
You can fly round-trip in business class from Los Angeles to Tokyo for 90,000 miles, which typically costs around $3,500 in cash, offering excellent value.
Routing Trick
Use Hawaiian Airlines' "Circle Island" routing to fly from Los Angeles (LAX) to Sydney (SYD) via Honolulu (HNL) instead of a direct route, which saves approximately 1,000 miles and allows for a stopover in Hawaii.
Avoid These Fees
Avoid flying with Hawaiian Airlines on inter-island routes, as they can charge up to $30 for checked bags and $25 for each additional carry-on, significantly increasing your total travel costs.
