Airfare to HNL

[Elima2015]

There are some great tips in here! Airfare is so situation specific, it is hard to compare. We have been to HI twice and I would say that I don't feel like we have found an awesome deal either time. This next time we are going for a wedding and we paid much more than some of our friends for a few reasons: we will be flying out of a smaller airport with no non-stop options, we can't take off extra time from work so mid-week flights are out for us due to the day of the wedding, we are flying with 3 kids <5 so we immediately ruled out red eyes and any itineraries with long layovers, esp an overnight. So, comparisons can be trickey depending on your preferences and limitations.

I would suggest monitoring prices for a while and when you feel comfortable with the initerary and price, go ahead and book. I haven't seen flight prices come down a ton, especially when not flying out of a major airport. And the point about searching 1 ticket at a time is spot on. We do that and usually end up with two separate confirmation #s because we can almost always book a couple of tickets cheaper than when we search for 5 at a time.

Have fun!!

We're traveling LAX - HNL mid June 2017 and prices are steadily at $795ish r/t. I recently just book our flights for $498 r/t on American. I did my daily log onto kayak.com with my cache/history cleared like I always do and there it was! 30 minutes after I booked the flights for the same exact dates/flight times were back to $798! I think it just takes consistency sprinkled with some luck. Check this site out ... https://skiplagged.com/ they help you find flights using 'hidden ticketing'. We were planning on doing the 'hidden ticketing' technique but ended up with such a good deal and now we don't have to!!

Is skiplagged reliable site? going to Aulani in July out of LAX, so far i can get $750/pp but i checked skiplagged , its $650.
