Bed Bugs Make News, Money, and Influence Hotel Decisions

Bed Bugs Make News, Money, and Influence Hotel Decisions

October 4, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Thirteen Honolulu hotels were mentioned on the Bed Bug Registry site as having problems with the dreaded creature. Is the problem real or just a way to damage a hotel’s reputation? As we pointed out in our last report, references to “bed bugs” have grown tremendously on U.S. TripAdvisor reviews. If bed bugs are mentioned in a hotel review, […]

Why Bellingham Is So Important To Hawaii

Why Bellingham Is So Important To Hawaii

August 23, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Allegiant Air’s announcement of the mainland cities from which it will serve Hawaii could come at any time now. When that occurs, Bellingham (Washington) will almost certainly be among them. I believe that will be true even though it may break with Allegiant’s tradition and policy of operating non-competing routes.  Alaska jumped on the Bellingham to Hawaii bandwagon earlier this […]

Hawaiian Air All-Island Sale From $137 Each way

August 17, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Hawaiian Airlines is standing its ground amid an unexpected and unprecedented flurry of late Summer and Fall airfare wars.  They just released an all-island Hawaii airfare sale that’s excellent.  In many cases, you could spend this much just to travel between Honolulu and one of the outer islands.  Here are the details: Book: 8/16 – 8/20 Travel: 8/23 – […]

Hawaii Christmas Sticker Shock: What To Do

Hawaii Christmas Sticker Shock: What To Do

August 16, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

My friend and Beat of Hawaii fan Trudy called this weekend. She wants to bring her teenage grandson to Kauai for the holidays and is looking for a great Hawaii airfare deal. After checking the fares I nearly needed resuscitation. Below you’ll see the screen shot of what I found for her dates and preferred airline.  The price was an […]

Cracking the UK to Hawaii Market

Cracking the UK to Hawaii Market

July 20, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Hot on the heals of one new Hawaii player, Allegiant Air, comes another potential suitor.  In the near future (2012) we may see United Kingdom’s (UK) Thomson Airways parked at HNL. The carrier is considering offering new long-haul destinations with their soon to be acquired fleet of 250-seat Boeing 787 Dreamliners. Thomson has been considering service to Honolulu for several […]

Allegiant’s Upcoming Hawaii Service

Allegiant’s Upcoming Hawaii Service

July 20, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Updated 7/21/2010 (below). What does Allegiant Air have in mind for their upcoming Hawaii service?  We’re anxiously awaiting the announcement on which airports they’ll fly to Hawaii from, and that news is expected shortly. I’m also interested if any of their deals will apply to Hawaii residents traveling to the mainland. Allegiant Airlines’ Director of Marketing, Chris Stacey, came […]

Are Alaska Air and Hawaiian Air Headed For Acquisition?

Are Alaska Air and Hawaiian Air Headed For Acquisition?

May 3, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Speculation arose again this weekend about the possibility of Alaska Air being acquired by American Airlines. Alaska, which has of recent become a very significant player here in Hawaii’s skies, is valued at $1.5B, which makes it small enough to still be easily digestible. This news of course comes hot on the heels of the announcement that the long-awaited […]

Good Hawaii Hotel Deals This Summer

Good Hawaii Hotel Deals This Summer

April 29, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Two Hawaii hotel deals just came across my desk that I think are worthy of mention. 1. Prince Resorts summer sale.  I really like both of these hotels that we’ve written about previously and recommend them highly.  This is an unheard of price at these properties for peak summer travel. Waikiki $145 Hapuna Beach $169 Terms: Book by 5/10 […]

Medical Flight Diversions

Medical Flight Diversions

April 1, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Last year while returning to Hawaii, I witnessed close at hand an on-board medical emergency, 1,200 miles from the nearest landfall. Two similar events have recently happened without much press. For those of you interested in aviation incidents, I thought I’d mention them to you. Continental 602.  Sometimes the flight crew has no choice but to divert for medical […]

Air Canada “Fireplace” En Route From Honolulu

Air Canada “Fireplace” En Route From Honolulu

March 24, 2010 by Beat of Hawaii

Aviation Herald is reporting that the Air Canada flight from Honolulu to Vancouver had a problem last Saturday. A fire broke out on board nearly two hours into the flight, at nearly the worst possible point.  The fire, which occurred in a galley oven, was extinguished and the plane continued safely to Vancouver.  Kudos to Air Canada. I’ve never […]
