Honolulu Flights

To say that Honolulu is naturally exquisite, fantastically relaxing, and impossibly entertaining would only just be scratching the surface of this endlessly enticing locale.
As this location offers its visitors such fantastic attractions as Waikiki Beach, the Lyon Arboretum, and the Kuan Yin Temple, you can feel secure that you will never be short of things to do. Tourists flood this island year round, so cheap flights to Honolulu are rarely hard to come by.

Best time to go to Honolulu

Peak Season:

Delightfully breezy and pleasantly warm from December to April, Honolulu is a tourist's paradise during the peak season. Flights to this destination can be pricey during this spell, but it is certainly worth the price to have the opportunity to lounge on Sandy Beach, go for a hike up the Diamond Head volcano, or catch a traditional hula performance near Kaiulani Avenue.

Shoulder Season:

Though there are still a few stray tourists hanging around in the months of May and October, the island is relatively quiet. This is an excellent time to mingle with the few remaining tourists and the warm, welcoming locals at such places as the Kapahulu Kafe, the Aku Bone Lounge, or the Rumours dance club.

Off Season:

The months of June and early September make up the off season in Honolulu. Despite being the off season, tourists still crowd the streets of this fabulous island. The prices of flights actually spike during these months, so it may be necessary to plan ahead if you want to take part in such events as the King Kamehameha Hula Competition in June, or the Waikiki Rough-Water Swim at the beginning of September.

Do you have any tips for my flight to Honolulu?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your getaway in Honolulu. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Honolulu?
The trick is to be well organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Honolulu before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
