Looking at flying to Maui in Mid April for two weeks. We have rates at $853 on American from our local airport. Think worth waiting? Or should we grab these now?
Hello, I have been monitoring flights out of Albuquerque to the Kona. This last month I have seen AA prices go from $844 to $730 for roundtrip flights in mid-July. Is it likely that prices will continue to drop any lower within the next few months?
Thank you for the help!
Hi Miko.
That fare is excellent for July and we would not expect it to go any lower. If anything it is likely to move up. Suggest buying.
Aloha.
We are going to Maui the week of May 13 2018, leaving from the NYC area. Right now prices for Hawaiian airlines are a about $1040 round trip. There are cheaper options but we really want to fly Hawaiian. When we went 5 years ago in May we paid $688 RT, haven’t seen prices that low this year! Hoping prices will at least go down a little. When do you think will be the best time to buy?
I will be traveling from lax to ogg in early june 2018 and returning from hnl to phx in june I have been to hawaii many times but not in june mostley sept. I see that the air fares on hawaiian and american are high now 764.00 per person do you think the price will drop a little around jan.-feb or should I book now Thank you
Hi Robert.
First week of June will have better pricing ahead. Later in June may or may not – that’s part of the unknown for next summer. Typically mid to late June is peak pricing.
Aloha.
Are airfares from Los Angeles (LAX) to Lihue likely to go below $886 per person round trip? Leaving on June 16, 2018 and returning on June 23, 2018
Hi Karen.
It is entirely possible give the unknown competition for next year. But it is anything but certain.
Aloha.
Will mid June fares go lower? I got one way award tickets to Lihue but am looking to buy return fares for June 16 or June 18. The lowest I have seen for one way from Lihue to Los Angeles is $417. Do you think there will be summer sales coming up after Christmas?
Hi Sue.
Next year is a bit of a crap shoot because of new flights. You can try to wait it out and see what happens. Sales to Hawaii in summer is generally speaking an oxymoron.
Aloha.
Aloha !
My sister is getting married March 24, 2018 on the big Island. I’m flying from Indianapolis or Chicago. Right now it’s tickets are around $1200. Flying on the 22nd and returning the 29th or 30th. Any chance of seeing this price go down?
Hi Juli.
Peak spring break dates. Not likely any downward price adjustments unless you want to wait towards last minute.
Aloha.
We are a family of 4 traveling from east coast to Maui, Kauai and Honolulu April 20-May 5, 2018. R/t on Hawaiian Air is currently pricing about $1200 per person including island hopping ($175). Souls we book now or hope to see lower rates?
Flying in July 2018 from Chicago to Maui (one way) $985 for 2 people and returning from Kauai to Chicago for $780. Checked bags extra. Also will need to get an inter island flight. With United adding lots of additional flights in January…should I wait or is this a good deal? These are one stop flights. I would LOVE to fly non-stop to Honolulu and take an inter island flight to Maui but that is very, very expensive.
Thank you!!
Hi Connie.
We find $930 total in July with good connetion for ORD-OGG and LIH-ORD. Price is as expected. Not sure it will improve by waiting and has potential to go higher.
Aloha.
Hi. Just read your article. We are a family of 4 flying from Spokane, WA, via Seattle, to Kona, June 29-July 6. Fares are upwards of $1150 now on AS (have AS credit card) and have been for the last 45 days. Would waiting until year-end be smart to see what develops or just get it booked? Thanks for your helpful insights!
Hi Carrie.
Pretty much most expensive week of summer you’ve picked. Might improve based on new routes, but are you willing to bet on that? If it does, Spokane won’t play in new deals, so you might be hoofing it to Seattle to take advantage of that.
Aloha.
What about flight to Vegas? Will the prices go lower than 553?? For January 2018?
