  1. Hi, lots of good info on your site. I’m going to Lihue Kauai, HI from LAX on July 10 (Mon), return July 18 (Tues). Non stop fares seem high at around 800 +. Should I buy now or will they come down any? Thank you for your time. Lynne

    1. Hi Lynne.

      $785 on Hawaiian nonstop for your dates. Price is as expected. Not likely to go down for peak summer travel and availability might be an issue if you wait.

      Aloha.

  2. Hi!

    I’m planning a family vacation to the Big Island August 5-12 (both Saturdays). In the past month, flight prices have gone UP… cheapest now is $780 round trip from Oakland CA to Kona (Alaska Airlines). Will prices go back down, or should I jump on these ASAP? Thanks!!!

    1. Hi Chelsea,

      Fares will move up and down somewhat for your dates in relation to changing demand and availability. Sundays are $100 less. Otherwise, not sure if it will go back down or not. Availability probably won’t be an issue, but not sure about that either since you want Saturdays.

      Aloha.

  3. Aloha!

    We just decided to fly to Hawaii this summer from the Midwest. We want to spend a week on Maui mid July, hop over to Oahu mid week and fly back to St Louis on a Saturday. Are we too late for great fares? Does changing islands like that drastically affect our fares?

    1. Hi Brian.

      Great fares in mid-summer to Hawaii? Are you joking? That’s peak travel season, the highest price, which this post is all about. Changing islands just add’s a half-day of travel time and the cost of that flight. Probably won’t impact price much overall. Buy now.

      Aloha.

  4. Looking for packages/flights from Minneapolis to Maui in anytime June 8 or later in the month or June or July and planning to stay for7-8 nights. Any advice? Prices seem to be going up… thanks so much for your time and help!!

    1. Hi Angie.

      We don’t really get involved in packages – they are more of a convenience than anything, if you prefer that. Otherwise you’re planning a peak date summer vacation and airfare will start in high $800’s with a good connection. Fair price. It won’t go lower.

      Aloha.

  5. Aloha! My dilemma is that I am completely flexible with when to go with at least a couple months to prepare and could fly from BWI or MDT with my final destination being Maui. I would like to stay for a week and a half but again I am really flexible but I am having a hard time finding anything under $1,000 with just ransoms dates. Do you recommend any dates for a the lowest fare?? Mahalo!!

    1. Hi Brandy.

      At present mid-September on looks good and is priced started just over $800 with good connection. There are low $600’s with very bad connections too. Alaska is cheaper and American is faster.

      Aloha.

  6. Hi, I just missed the recent sale for LAX to OGG. We are traveling early May. Could you please tell me if you anticipate fares going down below $600? Thank you!

  7. Hello-
    We are looking for flights from Tampa to Honolulu in late June/early July. Fares are $980-$1100 on average. Is this the fare range we should expect for summer travel from Florida to Hawaii? Thank you very much!

    1. Hi Keith.

      There are mid-week fares on American starting at $826. The faster the duration and fewer the stops the higher the price. Best duration/price combo is just under $1000.

      Aloha.

  8. Will Hawaiian or Alaska add any more flights to their April 19 schedule?? They are pretty full for the morning flights from SEA to MAUI.

  9. Please help, I’m shocked how Seattle to Honolulu airfare seems crazy high since I started looking back in November, for travel in Spring. Even Black Friday deals were no better than $800+. Please advise, cannot find under $900 for only nonstop flights. Alaska surprised with highest fares by far–why? (Hawaiian Air looks more appealing anyway)
    Thank you!

    1. Hi Rita.

      We don’t even see $800 airfares in that market for spring. Every month through May has nonstop $469-$489 airfares on multiple carriers. Not every day, and not Saturdays.

      Aloha.

  10. Trying to book for vacation April 8-April15th from BWI
    TO LIH(Kauai). Prices are about $1600-$1700 per
    Person. Seems very high??
    Is there a better time to book?
    Thanks!

    1. Hi Sheetal.

      Better time to book vs better time to travel: You’re coming Saturday to Saturday during spring break. That’s what this post is all about. Could come down more last minute but not something you can count on. Otherwise, fares starts dropping by $500 or more for departure/return two days later. Lowest spring fares are in $700’s, with long LA stopover.

      Aloha.
