Hawaii fares are down
 

Hawaiian Air is offering a fare of $449, RT Portland (OR) to Honolulu with Saturday departure in January 2003. Dang it. If I'd waited a little longer to buy, I would have saved $200! #@%*&#!

yipee the prices are down.

Anyone seen any low prices from Detroit, MI?

$449 from the westcoast to HI... that sounds a little high actually. Check travelocity.com or expedia.com. You should be able to find RT aifare for about $400 all the time. If you check often enough, you'll catch it around $250-300 from Seattle, SF or LA.

lax-hnl on ATA is now down to $198 after Jan 14.

I do check Travelocity regularly. They generally show a fare under $400, but it is never available when I want to go, it's not on Hawaiian Air, and it requires you to go through LAX or SFO, nearly doubling the travel time of a direct flight from PDX to HNL on Hawaiian. The flight I'm taking in January (on a Saturday) has been consistently listed for $625 or higher since last spring. This is the first time it has been this low - believe me, I've done the homework.

Flights are down $250 in Canada too. I bought my tickets 1 month too soon! I've noticed hotel availability is still strong too.<BR><BR>Me@GoingToHawaiiForChristmas

Plz tell me which part of Canada did you see fares at $250.00 to Hawaii. I'm in Windsor and haven't seen that price?

I found the fair on Expedia.ca. I paid 1000 a ticket from calgary. Expedia had the fair at $750 (wich my parents booked through). I'm not sure if there are any seats left. Good Luck!

Anyone know where I could find the best rates from NY/NJ

RE: dejahma:<BR><BR>I saw that fare on ATA on Monday night from SF to HNL for $198 R/T! I put 2 tix on hold through Expedia and went to purchase yesterday morning and the fare had changed to about $350! Man, I was UPSET! I'm waiting for the fare to go down to $350 round trip from the eastcoast like it did last year around this time.

eL I have been watching fares for about 5 years to Hawaii. That $350 fare last year was the lowest ever. It appeared in January though not November. So I would not be hopping for a fare drop before 1/1 if it drops that low again.<BR><BR>You could try a bid at $350 if you can't wait for Jan.

RE: Sarah: Well, I saw the fare for $350 in Nov. last year. It was around the 1st or 2nd week in Nov. but you had to travel by the end of the month. The fare was good from BWI, DCA, LGA, JFK, etc.

I am not sure about that eL I was watching fares last year also and I only saw a fare drop in January. Actually you can do a archive search here to confirm. I remember when everyone starting coming on to sing their success.<BR><BR>Thanksgiving for Hawaii is traditionally pretty tough. A lot of local people are flying home for the holidays. Although 911 could have sparked the sale you are talking about. I only know that for my family we did not see any fare drops on Continental, United, Delta or American from JFK, EWR, LGA, PHL.<BR>

Hi - Mid March 2002 we flew from Pocatello Idaho to Maui for $365.00! In 2000 we flew from Salt Lake City to Maui for 728.00 (end of May). I think 911 had alot to do with our fare last year and doubt we will ever see it that low again. But after January 1st start watching - fares well be good but only about 30 to 60 days out when advertised. Usually for FEB, 1st two weeks of March, and May. Good Luck!

I just booked a flight out of Oakland, CA to Honolulu for $250 inc taxes via Suntrips<BR>(www.suntrips.com). Now I need to find a cheap hotel :)

Is Suntrips really as bad as people say? Or is it just a low-budget airline like Southwest? Also, are they afiliated with any other airlines and have a frequent flyer program?

Michael Roberts - when is your trip?

We're planning on going March '03 to the Big Island or Oahu.

Round trip airfare from Wash. DC to Honolulu is $629 (including tax/fees) on Alaska Airlines. Restrictions: must fly between now &amp; Dec. 31. Connecting in Seattle.

This morning - airfare from Salt Lake City to Maui 535.00.

I think it's great that people post great fares they've come across on this board. it would be more helpful, however, if you would also say when the fare is offered. There are lots of great fares now if you can fly before Dec. 15. Not too helpful to someone planning a trip next summer. Anyway, if you got a great fare, tell when you're traveling too.

Pleasant Holidays' fares are way down right now (pleasantholidays.com) - &lt;$400 from the West Coast to Honolulu or Maui.

Check out Hawaiian Air's internet site periodically for internet specials. They just just concluded their most recent special with RT air from the west coast to Maui and Honolulu for between approx. $350 and $450 for travel in the spring. They rerun these specials, so be sure to check often.

$1695 RT from Boston. Ouch.

Do you think we could up this post to rub in Mr. Kal's face!

Hi. Where are the specials listed on Hawaii Air?

Go to http://hawaiianair.com/ and then check Web Fares. They don't always have special internet fares, but they do pop up fairly frequently, so it is worth your while to check at least once a week.
