Would be great if SWA flew from Ontario CA to Hawaii. My son is stationed in Hawaii and I LOVE SWA. Can’t wait!
I think Las Vegas to Hawaii would be great
Will they be flying PDX to Hawaii by any chance?
Hi Stephanie.
No they will not.
Aloha.
Interestingly, just this morning on a Southwest flight from Las Vegas to Phoenix during the pre take off information the crew was announcing, they said to look for Southwest to start flying to Hawai’i in a year.
Any chance they will fly San Jose to Lihue, Kauai? We have a nice new terminal and need the business! The competing Alaska Air flights right now are pretty fully booked.
Hi Suzy,
No I don’t think so. SJC hasn’t worked out all that well for the airlines flying to Hawaii. Oakland is the obvious choice since it is already SWA’s hub.
Aloha.
Been looking foward to this for years from SWA . from Oakland to Hawaii would go over great. We have always flown southwest, now to think I can go 5 miles get on a plane and go is beyond belief . Hope they work it out soon
I think most logical, would be nonstop service between Phoenix and Hawaii. Afterall, Phoenix is the main hub for Southwest and could connect Hawaii with all of America. It is only one hour inland from LA, so not an issue on distance, certainly no further than flying north to Oakland.
Oakland is CLOSER to HI than LA. It’s more north but it is also much more west. Remember LA is east of Reno.
Actually, Dallas is headquarters for Southwest Airlines. Phoenix is one of its 10 bases.
The ‘what we know’ section is mostly things Southwest has done to prepare for their Carribean flights…might be getting a little too excited, until something definitive is announced this is just a lot of speculation.
If Southwest is smart, they’ll begin servicing Hawaii before sea turtle season opens in 2014, when demand for flights to the islands increase dramatically.
