For 86 years, Hawaiian Airlines has connected Hawai‘i to the world with its signature Mea Ho‘okipa hospitality. Translated as “I am host,” this approach welcomes passengers with warm, culturally rooted service that celebrates the islands and their people. Hawaiian Airlines operates service from 11 U.S. gateway cities—Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Oakland, San José, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Portland, Seattle and New York City—and flies internationally to destinations including Japan, South Korea, China, Australia, New Zealand, American Samoa and Tahiti.
Hawaiian Airlines is an excellent choice for international travelers who want to add a tropical stop to their itinerary. From North American gateways, passengers traveling onward to destinations such as Australia or New Zealand have the option of a complimentary stopover in Honolulu. That means you can hike Diamond Head before visiting Auckland’s Sky Tower, or spend time on Lanikai’s powdery sand before continuing on your journey home. Complimentary stopovers let travelers enjoy island culture, beaches and local cuisine without adding extra airfare, making dual-destination vacations an efficient way to maximize a long-haul trip.
In 2014 the airline marked a decade of service to Australia and remains the only U.S. carrier offering nonstop service to Brisbane. Hawaiian has expanded capacity on the Honolulu–Brisbane route, adding thousands of additional seats following the introduction of a fourth weekly flight. Customers can choose from First Class, Extra Comfort and Main Cabin cabins, each featuring complimentary meal service inspired by Executive Chef Chai Chaowasaree’s locally influenced dishes. Hawaiian Airlines also continues to be the only U.S. carrier to provide complimentary meals on all international and many domestic flights.
From the moment passengers board, Hawaiian Airlines aims to convey the sights, sounds and Aloha spirit of the islands. That commitment has helped the carrier remain Hawai‘i’s largest and longest-serving airline for more than eight decades. Recognizing that international travel can be long and tiring, Hawaiian offers a range of complimentary amenities for long-haul travelers, including free Honolulu stopovers, chef-inspired meals, redesigned amenity kits and in-flight entertainment on high-resolution LCD touch-screen monitors. Travelers connecting through Honolulu to any of Hawaiian’s international destinations can explore the island of O‘ahu at no additional airline cost, and do so with reliable on-time performance—Hawaiian has led U.S. carriers in punctuality for more than a decade.
