My husband prefers Orbitz so we checked with them too. Searching for the best price, we also went to priceline to see what they had to offer. Searching with Expedia is easy - they lay out the prices and the times with their airline comparison engine in a http://www.andhawaii.com/2007/12/expedia-vs-orbitz-vs-priceline-which.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-117066916447027891Mon, 05 Feb 2007 09:52:00 +00002007-02-05T01:52:44.473-08:00Ok, we are trying to book tickets for my sister-in-law and her daughter to come out and visit us for a little over two weeks. My husband prefers searching on Orbitz while I prefer Expedia. She would prefer to leave from Atlantic City Airport (ACY) in New Jersey but past attempts have shown us that they likely do not have many flights that will connect to Hawaii. I searched just once, for http://www.andhawaii.com/2007/02/from-new-jersey-or-philadelphia-to.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-114300174293618084Wed, 22 Mar 2006 04:14:00 +00002006-03-21T20:29:05.390-08:00I did some airfare searches on Expedia from Austin, TX (AUS) to Honolulu (HNL) Hawaii to continue determining trends and prices to the Hawaiian islands from the mainland. (Remember, a hop to one of the neighbor islands will cost about $140 roundtrip usually). I found general average cheapest prices of: April - between $577 and $780 May - $477 to $650 June - $620 to $800 July - $706 to $831 http://www.andhawaii.com/2006/03/from-austin-texas-to-honolulu-oahu.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-114166237046804590Mon, 06 Mar 2006 16:05:00 +00002006-03-12T00:48:07.943-08:00America West - US Airways These two airlines recently merged.

My searches were for Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport (ATL), GA. I'm tracking prices and trends, so for a search on the last day of February, I found general average cheapest prices of: Mar 5-11: $800 Mar 12-18: $700 but prices way up on both weekends Mar 19-25: $580 March 26-April 1st: $700 Month ofhttp://www.andhawaii.com/2006/02/atlanta-georgia-air-travel-to-honolulu.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-114109555917833644Tue, 28 Feb 2006 02:51:00 +00002006-02-28T17:19:58.436-08:00I used Expedia's Comparison Engine to track Hawaii flight prices from Chicago, IL to Honolulu, both from Ohare (ord) and Midway (mdw). I found general average lowest prices of: These prices are from O'Hare Airport (ORD) This week: $800 Mar 5-11: $600 March 12-18: $580 March 19-25: $650 March 26-April 1st: $600 April 2-8: $680 Apr 9-15: $650 April 16-22: $680 April 23-29: $600 Month of May: http://www.andhawaii.com/2006/02/chicago-to-honolulu-fares-using.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-114099176775884451Sun, 26 Feb 2006 21:53:00 +00002006-03-08T16:45:19.403-08:00Best for: students and those with flexible travel plans Airtech is an airline "inside trader". They are a company that sells the empty seats on pre-scheduled flights. They normally put their clients on stand-by status, but to Hawaii, starting January 2006, they no longer use the standby tickets. Now they use e-tickets with confirmed/reseated seat booking.

My search was from New York to Honolulu, leaving on July 7th and returning on July 14th. All of these resulting fares should be taxes and fees included and one or no stops.

Even spring break week is still inexpensive. Not flying on weekends still seems to be the best way to save money on any trip.http://www.andhawaii.com/2006/02/flight-prices-hold-steady.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-113815157740944229Wed, 25 Jan 2006 00:59:00 +00002006-02-28T17:20:55.070-08:00Summary: During the second week of January, when I did searches for a few days or one week in advance I got most inexpensive prices of less than $600 consistently, even for last minute flights. Now, prices have gone up slightly across the board and are around $1000 or more for last minute flights. Other than that, you can still get a flight to Hawaii for under $700 for the next few months. http://www.andhawaii.com/2006/01/end-of-january-search-jfk-to-hnl.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-113761955629591034Wed, 18 Jan 2006 21:19:00 +00002006-01-18T13:25:56.323-08:00What I am going to try to do with this blog is keep a weekly eye on the flight prices from various mainland cities to Hawaii, and from Hawaii to various mainland cities. I will do consolidator checking on Expedia because they have the nicest format, and also check the major airline rates. I'll check different dates and see if the prices change as certain events (like spring break, summer, http://www.andhawaii.com/2006/01/explained.htmlLisatag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700072.post-113686271785546053Tue, 10 Jan 2006 03:11:00 +00002006-01-11T14:07:14.560-08:00Summary: In January, airline prices from New York to Hawaii (Oahu) for 1 to 10 nights run from $570 to about $800. Prices seem to be highest when leaving on weekends and lowest on Monday's and Tuesdays. Prices do not increase very much for spring break (not this far out anyway) but do go up for summer and come back down for fall/winter.
