Yep! Direct from the horse’s mouth here: https://www.southwest.com/html/air/newservicehawaii.html
OAK, SAN, SJC, SMF (so CA only) to HNL, OGG, LIH, KOA. Exact routes have yet to be determined. (Inter island is also coming as they stated but reportedly not until they have “established” their operations.)

Ugh. No LAX. Eager to see the SAN prices. I have not had a desire to go back to Hawaii since our honeymoon in '07 because of the outrageous flight costs.

So happy they plan to fly out of SMF!!

The gotcha here will be hotel costs. If you save $100 on your tickets but pay $100 more in hotel costs you are where you were before. EVERYONE knows SW is coming, so I think it's totally possible hoteliers will see the increased demand and increased interest in Hawaii coming and be ready for it.
