This is shaping up to be the most interesting summer ever in terms of Hawaii air fares.  No one, not even the airlines, has a clue as to exactly what will happen next. As we’ve seen since late last week, the airlines have moved discounted Spring pricing out into the traditionally peak pricing periods of [...]

Updated 4/21:  American and Continental are now available at the same price.  Hawaiian is pricing at over $700 by comparison. This is yet another unprecedented development in the Hawaii recession airfare saga. United Airlines has dropped the price for nearly all prime summer dates to a low that I cannot recall seeing in the past [...]

I’ve been in Honolulu all week, and distance swimming at my favorite Waikiki  spot, Ala Moana Beach Park.  Keeping in mind that the jellyfish were due to arrive this weekend, I planned my swims accordingly.

What to a large degree started this morning as a United airfare sale suddenly exploded into a flurry of new Hawaii airfares.  All of the [...]

Here are two Hawaii hotel deals in the luxury category that I found: Hilton Hawaiian Village, Oahu Regular rates at the Hawaiian Village, including peak summer travel now start at $145 (run of house). If you happen to be over 62, it drops to $131. This Waikiki hotel near Ala Moana beach park and shopping [...]

Do you twitter?  If you don’t, perhaps its time to start thinking about jumping on this web phenomenon.  It is fast becoming one of the most useful places for finding the latest travel deals and information, virtually as they happen.  It can also help put you in direct contact with people and companies who might [...]

Good News: Most domestic airlines serving Hawaii offer two types of low fare guarantees in case you find a better price elsewhere.
