As summer plans take shape, Hawaii likely tops many travelers’. Thankfully, there are plenty of flight options to get folks to the islands.
Hawaii’s largest airline carrier, Hawaiian Airlines announced Wednesday it’s increasing flights in anticipation of this year’s strong summer demand – the most seasonal flights for the airline since the pandemic. The new flights begin May 26 and operate until Aug. 30.
“We’re encouraged by the robust demand for travel to Hawaii this summer season and these increases signal a healthy return in our key North America markets,” Brent Overbeek, senior vice president – chief revenue officer at Hawaiian Airlines, said in a statement.

The Hawaii-based airline is adding more weekly flights between Honolulu (HNL) and Boston (BOS), Las Vegas (LAS) and Pago Pago in American Samoa (PPG) this summer. The airline will also be adding two more flights, including a redeye, from Los Angeles (LAX) to Honolulu on Tuesdays and Fridays.
The additional LAX flights will help make “other U.S. mainland connections seamless and convenient,” Overbeek added. During the peak summer season, there will be 23 weekly flights between Honolulu and Los Angeles.
