Hello! Or should I say Aloha!! 🙂 What is your advice for airfare for August 2019 from NYC (any of the 3 airports, but EWR or LGA preferred)? Any price drop expected for the East Coasters due to the Southwest Effect? Hope to see you this summer. Thank you for this great website – so informative.
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Kathy.
Thank you. We really won’t know about Southwest effect on connecting flights for a bit here. We’ll all be interested to see that and it will be revealed soon. Moreover, for August (after the first week), we suggest you wait for several months until we get to more aggressive pricing for late summer and fall. Perhaps late spring.
Aloha.
Kathy A says
Thank you – I’ll sit tight for now. We are aiming for an Aug 7 or 8 departure from NY area – the dates have to stay about there due to my son’s fall college semester. But once in Hawaii, he may want to stay! 🙂

Cheapest airlines to travel round trip to Honolulu from IAD
John B says
Hello, can you please help?. Looking for info on flying from PHL/EWR to OGG July 21, return July 28. Would it be cheaper to fly to LAX, then purchase round trip to OGG from there?. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi John.
It virtually never works out better to have separate tickets. Just under $1,000 RT on multiple airlines and about the same from either airport. Might come down down some due to Southwest’s entry, but we don’t really know at this point. Our sense is you may be better off waiting a month or two rather than buying now.
Aloha.

I struggle finding cheap flights in December or November from Denver Colorado. It seems like there’s cheaper flights from New York. Please let me know if there’s a good way to get good prices on flights from Denver Colorado to any of the flying islands. Thank you so much for your help.
Sandy
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Sandy.
There are some $334 RT fares from Denver to Kona on American this fall (October) and $448 on Alaska in November. Hope that helps. Prices should improve going forward from Denver as we anticipate more flights ahead.
Aloha.

Hi! Thank you for your continuous coverage of deals – especially to and from the east coast! I’m interested in traveling back east the first and second week of October and I see you found some deals from EWR. Could you advise what dates you found in that vicinity for KOA to EWR and back?
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Amanda.
Things change up to 5x a day, so that was then and now is now. We do still see some October airfares on American for $396 in your time-frame. Mid-Week.
Aloha.

Hey BOH,
I REALLY appreciate all your coverage of SWA’s integration into your beautiful land. I’m a SWA flight attendant and want to whole heartedly thank you for your coverage of this transition. Our passengers and employees can’t wait to explore this great opportunity! I hear it almost every day I fly…
See you soon and aloha!
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Chad.
Thanks for your comment. Great to hear from you.
Aloha.
Cindy says
could you please provide any dates for the $178 flights on American either to EWR from HNL or vice versa. Our dates are flexible.
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Cindy.
That fare is no longer available.
The deal fares we publish are sometimes only available for a number of hours, sometimes a few days. Yesterday’s could be booked for about 6 hours before the airlines pulled them.
Aloha.
David K says
What is best price for LIT-HNL round trip early Jan 2019 t0 mid Feb 2019?
Gretchen M. says
Hi there! I’m not seeing a $178 fare from EWR to HNL on AA. I’ve tried a few different dates. Am I missing something?
Thank you!
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Gretchen.
Still available. As mentioned in post, if you’d like to provide approx. dates we will help find nearest availability.
Aloha.
Diane says
Hello,
My family is beginning to plan for our vacation next August (2018). So far it looks like 4 adults and 2 children (aged 5 and 1). We prefer to leave from Newark NJ (EWR) but would consider JFK if a really good rate is available. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Diane
Beat of Hawaii says
Hi Diane.
Really too far out. You can start looking 330 days in advance, but best prices will probably not be available until 90 days in advance. Target price for Maui or Honolulu is $800’s with good connection or nonstop.
Aloha.
John says
