Mahalo for the update on Alaska Air. Sad to hear that they are abandoning their Oakland to Maui flights, as the Hawaiian Air schedule is not as convenient and it helped to keep prices down. Not sure why Alaska Air thinks San Jose is the better option other than there is more big $$$ money there. And San Francisco Airport? It may be big but it is a disaster to get in and out, but at least you can make big money betting that most – if not all – flights will be delayed due to fog.
Hope things begin to improve for the people of Hawaii soon.
Hi Debi.
Thanks. Yes, there is a lot of jockeying around right now with the flights to Hawaii and it seems like there will be more ahead.
Aloha.
Thanks for the information, Unfortunately Alaska rescheduled our Oak to Lih flight traveling Oak to Seattle. This will cause an additional four hours of travel. This would be incredibly inconvenient with three small kids. I called and they refused to give me a refund because this was a flight I had to reschedule several times due to Covid 19. Unfortunately the only option I have is to fly out of San Jose which is three Plus hours from my home. Since they are the ones who cancelled the flight I think they should have to Refund the flight. I am really angry.
I support Hawaiian in adding new routes,expanding the market.I have met many people from Chicago,and now Orlando today,in Waikiki who are extremely appreciative for this new easier way to travel to Hawaii
Aloha,
I was looking forward to the easy access of Ontario, Ca., but the prices are much higher than those of San Diego and LAX. This route will only benefit the population of Northern Riverside County and San Bernardino County, everyone else in Southern California will choose SAN & LAX over ONT. I for one always fly from SAN and make my hours drive there for it’s reliability and cheaper airfares. You’ll spend less in gas in the difference in prices.
