Sample flights
Since there are so many options, you can choose your flight based on departure time and airline, not just based on what is cheapest. For example, a Jan. 29 flight from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to Honolulu’s Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) is $189 across the five different airlines.
Whether you have loyalty to a particular carrier or hold a specific airline-branded credit card, choose the flight option that best aligns. (Pro tip: In this situation, don’t choose United because it charges for carry-on bags. A carry-on bag is included with the other airlines.)

There are also inexpensive options from San Francisco International Airport (SFO). The below flight applies to Alaska’s Saver fare, which comes with a carry-on bag but minimal other perks. Still, for a $180 round-trip fare, it’s hard to beat.

Flights from Austin are naturally a bit more expensive and fall around $289. Some of the best options from the Texas capital are to Lihue Airport (LIH) on Kauai and Kona International Airport (KOA) on Hawaii’s Big Island.
In the below example, you’ll have a layover in Honolulu each way.
